Buying a new small automatic
I am age 84 and own a Ford focus 1.6 Zetec auto first registered on 02/10/2002, now with 57,0000 on the clock. I load my electric mobility scooter (96 cm long & 55 cm wide) into the boot with some difficulty, the sill being 66 cm off the ground. The scooter comes apart into 4 pieces, the heaviest of which is 24 Kilos.
Can you please suggest a new small automatic with a sill no higher than the sill of the Focus?
