Watching thread with interest as we’re currently in the market for a new to us family car. Moving up in size from a Zafira, we need space for three kids seats in the back and biggest boot possible. Shortlist is smax, i40, Passat, Mondeo and Superb estates.
We live in the sticks and don’t often use the motorways or sat in traffic and always had manuals. Seems to be high % of autos for sale. Are the Ford Powershift autos particularly troublesome, heard some horror stories? DSG autos better or just stick with manuals?
