Family car buying advice?
A new arrival forces the sale of my much enjoyed Fiesta. I'm looking for an estate or MPV. I do around 22k per year and do not want a diesel as they have cost me a fortune to repair in the past. I like the look and drive of the Ford C-MAX 1.6 EcoBoost 182 as its punchy like my Fiesta. What else should I be looking at?

Also look at a Peugeot 308 or 308SW with the 1.2 Puretech 130 engine which also has 230Nm torque (almost as much as a Fiesta ST) and yet over 12,000 miles in my hands averaged 49mpg.
