What family car what would you recommend ?
We are looking for a family car. We have a Ford C-MAX but it is old. We often ferry kids around but do not require a massive seven-seater. We loved the C-MAX for its big boot as we have two children and car seats and a pushchair. We need a car that is economical to run, only really use it for short runs.

We'd recommend a Kia Sportage. Great value for money, reliable and a long warranty (that's transferable if you buy second-hand). Also, consider a Skoda Karoq or a Kodiaq if you need more space.

Can you help with advice on a family car - preferably an estate or SUV for around £7k? Safety and reliability are more important than gadgets.
