Buying a car with good access
I need advice on buying a used car for a friend who has mobility issues and finds it difficult to bend when getting into a car. He wants a fairly normal car but understands that a 4x4 might have to be an option because of his requirements. He has a budget of around £15,000 to spend and needs something with tall doors. Can you recommend anything?

A Volkswagen Golf Plus, Ford C-Max, Mazda 5, that sort of thing makes the most sense.

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

Spacious and flexible interior, almost as nice to drive as a regular Golf, comfortable for rear-seat passengers.
