I have a Renault Kangoo Expression, which we needed for my recently deceased partner in order to get a mobility scooter on a hoist in the back. It is just one year old with a trade value of £6,000, I am told (for probate purposes). I would like to change it for a more sensible car for a lady, but still would like higher seats and plenty of legroom in the back seats for my tall friends. Can you suggest a saloon (which I prefer) or hatchback, and would it be more economical to go back to a manual rather than automatic? Hopefully, I could add around £5,000/£6,000 to the Renault.
