What family car would suit me?
I have three kids aged 8, 1, and 2 months; me and partner need a car for our family with enough room for their car seats and also room for buggies and prams. Can you suggest some makes for me? I also will be the one driving and I do not want a big engine.
Our answer:
Hi Sarah,
Ok, I think you really need to be looking at an MPV and the biggest one with the smallest possible engine is the Ford S-Max with the 1.8 TDCi diesel. Lots around to choose from and they're pretty reliable too.
If you need something a bit smaller than that then look at a Citroen C4 Picasso with the 1.6 diesel engine or the current-shape Kia Carens with the 1.7-litre engine.
