easy access cars - harrison
Which is the best small e.g. Yarris type car for people with arthritis who find it difficult getting in and out of cars, must have 4 doors, electric windows and wing mirrors, central locking and if possible air conditioning.

Lamborghini Countach - Guy Lacey
It has to be a Lamborghini Countach.

Seriously, I would go for a Mercedes A-Class (even tho' the dash is shoddy)

Try the Citroen Berlingo Multispace. I sat in one recently and was amazed by its practicality. Good value too and you can specify air con. I don't know what it drives like but I've heard good reports - lots of White van versions go past me every day on the M4!

Good luck!

Yes. A 5-door Punto, or, as Mr Harrison mentioned, the Toyota Yaris Verso. They are both better than the A Class because you don't have to climb up into them or step down out of them.

I never thought I'd recommend it, but friends with a Wagon R reckon it's great for elderly relatives.
