Seat height

We need a family car with a seat height of 26in/66cm for my wife with hip problem to access.

Sorry, we don't keep a database of this measurement. I'd guess that a Toyota Auris, Nissan Note, Hyundai ix20 and KIA cee'd would fit the bill, while most Chevrolet Cruze models have height adjustable passenger seats.

Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.

Easy to drive and manouevre into small spaces, roomy cabin with plenty of headroom in the back, some clever and practical features inside, economical dCi diesels, well built.
Decent combination of ride and handling that might suit some people better than a harder sprung Golf or a Civic. A few inches taller than a Golf of Focus so easier to get in and out.
Cheap to run. Good visibility. Plenty of rear passenger and boot space. Better engines and transmissions in 2016.
