I have a limited height garage - what car would you recommend?

I’m limited in my garage to a height clearance of 1.58 metres. Can you recommend an SUV or estate car not exceeding that height?

We'd recommend a Toyota Corolla Touring Sports. It's a very reliable and cheap-to-run estate car - and it measures 1460mm tall, so should fit comfortably into your garage. Also look at the very versatile Skoda Octavia Estate (it measures 1455mm high) or the Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer Electric (1480mm).
