We’ve pretty much outgrown our Honda Jazz: the dogs just about fit in the boot (labrador and cockerpoo) but obviously nothing else in there with them. My son has just gone to a 24″ bike so we need to take both wheels off to get it in the boot (for convenience if the bikes are just going to the park). When we travel as a family on holiday the entire boot fills up to capacity.
So we want something a little bigger. Not really interested in an estate as they’re so damn long, something more like a MPV or a spacious light SUV: C4 Picasso, Zafira, Kaptur, ix35, etc.. I’ve aspirational brand loyalty and would be happy with a CR-V but they’re too expensive! Some of the SUVs I’ve looked at are physically a lot larger than the Jazz but internal space is the same, it’s all lost in style.
So, what’s recommended and available for a good price for a ~2012 model?
