Shifting people, not gears

Please may I ask your opinion? If I have £10, 000 to spend, want an automatic MPV (for children, bikes etc) should I get a second hand Ford C-Max or a Renault Scenic?

There aren't many petrol automatic C-Max out there and the original diesel CVT could be trouble. The C-Max is better for entry, egress and front seat room. The Scenic is a more practical MPV. Also look at a KIA Carens auto and a Citroen Xsara Picasso auto.
