Help with next car - ideally a SUV

Currently drive a Ford Grand C-Max, which I love. It has less than 60,000 miles on the clock, but at 13 years old, there are signs that it may be giving up the ghost.

Ideally I'd have another one, but I don't think they make it any more, so what should I go for next?

I love the higher up position, and especially the fact that I can seat 7 passengers, with the back 2 seats folding into the floor.

I'm not bothered about moving to an electric car yet, as here in London we don't have sufficient infrastructure for me to be able to charge it. (No driveway/garage).

I don't mind buying something new, if there's a good 0% finance deal (notwithstanding that I know buying new isn't really a good deal), but if I buy a used car, I wouldn't want it to have too many miles on the clock. If I'm going to pay cash, I'd want to pay around £15-20K.

I want a petrol and manual car.

Any suggestions? TIA

The new Nissan X Trail is fabulous

Yes but isn’t it £30,000 plus? The op has £20,000. It’s not much fun to drive I think. A bit of a grunter. However it’s 5 star safety and the third row of seats fold into the boot floor. So possibly a decent used buy but not a 2025 model.
