We need a small MPV with good access for a dog - any suggestions?
We are looking for a new car which our dog can easily climb into. We need something with an estate car-type seat arrangement, where the flat floor goes right to the front seats. We have a Land Cruiser for long distance driving but we would like a small, nippy 4x4 with side doors and totally flat floor. Any ideas?

I think the lowest load decks that cars ever had were in the Toyota Yaris Verso, up to 2006, and the old model Mazda 2, up to 2007. A further alternative might be a secondhand Berlingo or similar, converted with a drop-down ramp at the back for wheelchairs. The dog could then simply walk in. See www.brotherwood.com/default/
