Which compact MPV to go for?
Hi, With 3 small kids (2 in car seats and 1 booster) I'm looking to upgrade to a decent family car- a 5 seater with 2 fold down in boot..what are the best options in terms of reliability, safety, price etc. I'm between a corolla verso or a Ford c-max but are there better options out there? Thanks Ciara
Our answer:
Hi Ciara,
The C-Max is a good car, and the sliding side doors really help in tight parking space, but have a look also at the Mazda5, the Volkswagen Touran and the Toyota Verso. All reliable, all spacious and all perfect for what you need.
