What reliable used car do you recommend?
I need to change my car. Something maybe 5 years old, Comfort and economy are important as I do many long journeys on mostly good roads. I live rurally. I need to carry big equipment for work so 5 doors with good boot space. I currently drive a 2015 Kia Sportage I've had from new.

If you need comfort, lots of space and good fuel consumption we would suggest looking at the Skoda Octavia Estate, or the bigger Superb Estate, both of which offer plenty of room for passengers and luggage. If you need something a bit more sturdy and with additional ground clearance, you may wish to consider the later generation Kia Sportage from 2016-on, Honda CR-V or Mazda CX-5.
