I am searching for a new car. Is your car any good and would you recommend it? My maximum budget is around £15,000, could push it a bit higher if it’s really good but ideally not. Thanks

I did have a Range Rover, perfect in every way except a little large. Unfortunately I crashed it!
I've replaced it with an Audi Q5, not quite as big but some great features, there would be a great example that's a few years old in your budget.

I had a seat Alhambra for 20yrs. It was the easiest car to drive and park, 7 seats, economical and never needed any major work - passed every MOT. I loved it.

Now I drive a Ford Kuga. It's a lovely spacious car, fits all 4 of us in (dh and boys all well over 6ft) plus a huge boot. Expensive new but can find some decent ones for 15k I'm sure.

A Mini Countryman: it’s bloody lovely to drive. Used to have a manual but this is automatic and perfect for the majority of journeys I do.

It’s dead nippy and I’ve affectionately named it ‘The Rocket’!

Both kids (age 9 & 10) easily fit in the back; but the boot can also be expanded when there are no rear passengers. It has heated seats to the front & colour change interior lights! I really love it and I didn’t think I was a ‘car person’! My partner’s really into cars and although he drives a Jag (which admittedly I also love driving) he loves my car too!
