For years we have been a 2-car family - currently with a 6 yr old Toyota Verso and a Honda Civic that is 9 yrs old. My husband died in August and I need a car that can carry small grandchildren, a large dog, shopping, take stuff to the tip, go on the motorway but be also nippy round town and to park? Help? I would prefer petrol either automatic or manual though I like manual, and probably do only about 3-4 thousand miles a year. I would buy new or 2-3 yr old, and am happy to spend £20,000.

New Ford Grand C-Max. Takes 7 at a pinch and is delightful to drive. Or a new model Mazda 5. That drives almost as well and has the option of electric sliding side doors.

Seven seats. Sliding side doors. Compliant suspension is superb on poor road surfaces.
