Just buy her a new pair of shoes and some chocs...sorted and cheaper
Tourans are quite small I'd say...and seriously dull
Seriously dull: It's perfect then!
She has shoes, most of which are in permanent migration, by themselves. Finding the other migratory half is nearly as popular as 'have you seen my car keys?'
[QUOTE 3642309, member: 45"]It's tough to get something on-budget with low mileage and adult seats in the back. Now that most people are going for fold-flat seats even contenders like the Galaxy don't have the room that they used to. If I were you and really looking to change then I'd be looking at the best, previous model Galaxy/Alhambra/Sharan that I could find.[/QUOTE]
I think finding a low mileage one in budget is tricky. The Alhambra is probably the most affordable.
Three student bus passes?
I don't do that much ferrying any more, they are mostly independent. I just have to provide food at irregular nocturnal schedules.
Son has 3 children of his own + 2 inherited, so he traded in his Seat Cupra for a Nissan Quashqai +2, I was that impressed I traded in our Citroen Belingo for one (not a +2) it has plenty of room, I don't look at as a faux 4x4 but as a large hatchback, the most important bit is the bike fits in the back although not as easily as the Belingo, the wife never liked the Belingo so it had to go.
They are definitely out of budget
This is my answer to family space which I am after at the moment as little hatch back with 3 kids the better half just doesn't cut it now. Can be picked up at reasonable prices too if you look around
They're huge and expensive to run. The Sportage we had cost nearly 180 a tyre, crazy prices. It went as soon as we didn't need it.
Mrs McG had a Zafira for about 5 years and apart from £250 for a new part for the air-conditioning unit it cost nothing apart from the usual tax/fuel/mot etc.
Is the Zafira duller than the Touran? We might have to flip a coin.
