What cars have the best ride?
My wife has had a major spinal operation which means that she struggles with the pot holes and other imperfections in the road. Which car would best dampen these effects and give her a ride that stands a chance of being comfortable?

Choosing a car with the most comfortable ride very much depends on your budget, but we would suggest looking at cars such as the Skoda Superb and Kodiaq, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, Land Rover Discovery and Volvo S90, all of which offer comfortable seats with a smooth ride. We would also recommend looking for cars with smaller rather than larger alloy wheels as this will contribute to the ride quality.
