What's the best petrol family car with a large boot?
I have three children and would like a car that can give me good mileage but more importantly one with a big boot. I previously had a diesel and found that cutting down on motorway journeys meant my dpf filter egv valve was costly to replace. So now I want petrol as I have a budget of 21k and want a car that's 4-5 years old but also fairly new less than 40k mileage.

A Volkswagen Touran would be a very versatile choice. Your budget will get a 2019 example with the 1.0-litre or 1.5-litre TSI petrol engine - we'd recommend the latter if you can find one, it makes lighter work of shifting a car full of passengers. Alternatively, we'd recommend a Skoda Kodiaq. It's a very versatile family SUV available with seven seats and a frugal 1.5-litre petrol engine.
