To be honest, the ULEZ thing isn’t a deal breaker, more of a nice have, budget MAY be able to be stretched to 4500 at a push for the right car
seems there’s a lot of love for the SMAX and incidentally was the first car I tried searching for this morning. Last couple (or so) cars have been Vauxhalls, I like them but wouldn’t mind a bit of a change
If buying a petrol one is there a preferred / most economical engine size or type to look out for? I also had an 07 zafira for a while and quite liked the fact the rear bench of seats could all be slid backwards / forwards, does the SMAX have the same feature?
