What family car what would you recommend ?
We are looking for a family car. We have a Ford C-MAX but it is old. We often ferry kids around but do not require a massive seven-seater. We loved the C-MAX for its big boot as we have two children and car seats and a pushchair. We need a car that is economical to run, only really use it for short runs.

We'd recommend a Kia Sportage. Great value for money, reliable and a long warranty (that's transferable if you buy second-hand). Also, consider a Skoda Karoq or a Kodiaq if you need more space.
Choosing a child seat can be a quite baffling experience – there are so many sizes, types, brands and price points available that you might not know where to start.

We are looking for a car to do approx 10-12k miles per year, with lots of short journeys, some mid distance journeys and few longer ones. We are a tall family of four (up to 6ft 4) and generally find cars...
I had a Focus and am now seeking a used petrol vehicle, preferably £8k to £12k but could go more if need be. I do 8000 miles a year that includes the daily city commute and monthly 200 mile motorway trips....
Can you help with advice on a family car - preferably an estate or SUV for around £7k? Safety and reliability are more important than gadgets.
