Looking for a comfortable car - what should I buy?
I have a Volkswagen Polo TSI Bluemotion 2016, the seats are the most uncomfortable I've sat in and I've had passengers on shorter journeys say they really dislike the seating. I'm fine on short journeys in it, but any longer than 20 minutes and everyone is aching.
I'm looking at a Volkswagen T-Cross (I think a Tiguan is a bit big), SEAT Arona or something along those lines. Do you know of any cars in that sort of size range with comfortable seats? My Mum has a Vauxhall Astra Estate (2015) and the seats are SO comfortable (I'm not mad on the car itself, though it does also drive really nicely on motorways).

The Volkswagen T-Roc is the UK's most comfortable car, according to the latest Honest John Satisfaction Index: www.honestjohn.co.uk/honest-john-satisfaction-inde.../
The T-Roc is based on the same mechanical platform as the SEAT Arona, but has better seats that are firmer and more supportive. The higher driving position will also make getting in/out easier for you and your passengers to get in/out.
