Looking for a spacious family car...
Looking for a very reliable car with excellent boot storage and rear seating space to comfortably accommodate 2 child seats and plenty of extra room. I have already looked at Octavia and insignia. Would the corolla be worth considering? Anything else you would recommend? Looking for something that will not be difficult for parking. only considering mid sized saloons or small suv as we don't like the MPVs
Our answer:
Hi Peter,
An Octavia is well worth considering as they’re massive inside and well made too. Comfy as well. A Corolla is fine, but for a family I’d lean towards the Auris Sport Tourer estate (same mechanicals as the Corolla but arguably better looking and much more practical), which is roomy and incredibly reliable. The Insignia might be a bit too big for what you need. Think more mid-size estate. A VW Golf Estate is also very definitely worth a look, as is the the Kia cee’d SW and the Peugeot 308 SW.
