What tyres would people reccomend for a tin top

It's a golf estate TDI that does 30,000 miles a year.

I used to buy Pirelli P6000 as they were long lasting with some grip but that was 10 years ago.

What do people reccomend?

Just linned up some new continental Sport contact 2 for my a6 ( £150 each Gulp ) but they are 225 17 with high load 94 and Y speed rating.

but French autoroutes in torential rain with the nearest and dearest in the car.

Run Conti's on my last 3 Vag motors and find them a good alround tyre.
