What should I replace my Volvo XC70 with?
I wish to update my 2015 Volvo XC70 D5 and am having difficulty finding anything as comfortable/efficient with lots of legroom. It must be an auto, with heated front seats and steering wheel, and have enough room for two cockers in the rear! I am open to a SUV as long as the 'boot' is low enough to accommodate the dogs fairly easily. Some estates that I have tried have rather small seat squabs that do not appear to be comfortable enough for the long journeys that we occasionally make .... nor do they have the 600 mile autonomy that the Volvo has!
I have the XC70 plus about £25k .... what would you suggest?

As you're finding, rugged estate cars like the Volvo XC70 are out of fashion in favour of SUV alternatives. Have you considered a Volvo V90 Cross Country? Production is ending (and a new one would be over budget) but it's a lovely, versatile wagon and you should be able to find a low-mileage used example within budget. If you would like to consider SUVs, we'd recommend a Hyundai Tucson or Kia Sportage.
