My husband and I moved to the Suffolk countryside two years ago, and bought a 2007 Ford C-Max automatic (mileage on purchase: 7000). We already had, and still have, a 2005 Ford Focus automatic. We are both pensioners, but I now have a part-time job which means a round trip of 68 miles per day, three days a week. My husband's voluntary work can mean a round trip of 72 miles per day, varying between once to three times a week.

The C-Max now has a mileage of 47,000 with an average petrol consumption of 33.7mpg, the Focus has a mileage of 78,000 with an average petrol consumption of 33.8mpg. Our thought is to sell one of these cars, and buy a smaller vehicle, but which one should go and what should we buy? Should we run the Focus into the ground and sell the more valuable C-Max, or keep the C-Max? Whatever we buy needs to be automatic because of a medical condition. We have around £3000-£4000 cash to play with.
