thinking of changing car soon got a Renault Modus and was thinking of moving up in size a little been looking at the Renault Senic but what else is out there thats worth looking at??.

Berlingo?

Owned both a Scenic 2.0litre petrol and a Zafira (2.2 petrol & 2.0 DCI)

For comfort, quality, reliability and practicality the Zafira wins hands down.

Depending on your budget and how old a car you would consider, the rather ugly fiat Multipla was a good car.

For something new, consider a Skoda Yeti.

Ford Focus C-Max.

Had two of them, great cars. The 3 individual rear seats can be tilted or removed independently…ideal bike bus !

VW touran, post 2007.

Toyota Corolla Verso?

Fiat Multipla.

Next?

Multipla has the advantage of three seats in the front and the new Berlingo, though longer than the old one, may be a bit less useful as there is a console up front – the ability to allow things to protrude between the seats in the old one increases versatility.

I can get two people, a tandem and two solos in the old version, or three people and three bikes. It also has enough height to allow two motorcycles to fit in without folding the bars down.

Smax. Couldn’t find one for sub £10k last year, but seems to be plenty now. Would be my choice.
Had a Verso, loved it .& would 100% get another. We have a Galaxy, real world mpg is about 35-40mpg.
Galaxy is just so practical, 4 bikes in – (3 upright) with 4 seats still in.

Touran : OK, but expensive. Does the job well, but I would not rush out to get another. (05, 85k on a 1.9TDi had for 4 years)

We’re replacing the most unrealiable POC that I have ever owned, A 2006 Scenic with a Skoda Yeti, it was a tough choice between that and a CMax and the Yeti only won because the only CMax we could get was White and had a Power Tailgate.

We’re due to go to France next week and there was no way we were going to take the Scenic.

How about driving auto gear?

Honda FRV. Love mine.

Touran or c-max. Obviously the VW will me more dollar.
