Alternative to Honda CRV?
We need to replace a Honda CR-V with an insurance payout (max £7000). We like the CR-V, but wondered if you could recommend an alternative which was less expensive to run. Need a large boot for carrying sports equipment & we do more than average mileage. Our Honda was an 06-plate with 91K miles on it. Or would we be better sticking with another CR-V?
