Which MPV for a family with good load space?
My wife and I are expecting a second child in July. We are both very happy but realise that we will need to upgrade our Ford Focus to something larger. My wife runs a garden design business and would like to use the car for her equipment so we need a large boot capacity. She likes the look of Skoda, Volvo and Mazda. We have a budget of £6000 plus the trade-in from our 2005 Ford Focus LX manual. Could you suggest a car for us? Apart from boot capacity, ride quality and fuel efficiency are our priorities.

Try to find a current model Citroen Berlingo Multispace. They may look like vans, but they drive, ride and handle better than many cars and are, of course, immensely practical. Much stronger and safer than the original too.
Real MPG enables you to register the fuel economy you are actually getting against your make and model of car, its engine and type of transmission.
Every time you enter an average consumption figure against your car, the overall average automatically adjusts to reflect it.
