  and the large infotainment screen, lifted from the latest S-Cross apparently,  was a doddle to navigate.

  My firm (a local bus and coach company) has sitting it its bank a tax payer funded grant which has to be spent on electric buses.

  on the clock and good history (Verso is too small, XC90 worries me with repair bills, don’t fancy a Zafira, Galaxy, S Max, Grand Picasso, or Alhambra) Have I missed anything worth considering - such as an older X5? - and if not, which would be a better investment to try and get 6 or more years of well

• What would you go for? 11 Feb 2021 (Forum)

  Evening all... I'm after some pretty basic advice regarding my cheap as chips old A Class. I picked it up simply as a bargain hack, and for an S plater it's not bad; the arches are still there in all four corners and it's no more wooly to drive than any of these that I've come across
