What's a good replacement for my Skoda Rapid?
I am looking for a replacement for my Skoda Rapid. My requirements are a petrol car with a high driving position, both front seats height adjustable and boot space to take a set golf clubs. My annual mileage is 9000 miles and my budget is about £7000. have recently looked at the new MG3 that has a seven year warranty. Please what would you suggest?

We'd avoid the MG3 - there are better options out there. We rate the latest Skoda Fabia as an excellent value hatchback. Buy an SE grade or above for two height adjustable front seats. You can get an estate version, too, should you need more space than the hatchback offers.
