Mobility-what car have you got

[jenk1]

We have been looking at cars today, we need a family size not necessarily a large family but we want a diesel.

What cars do you have/would recommend.

TIA

well i have a renault master van.
but would reccomend a vauxhall zafira if you are looking for a family car.

I have a Citroen Xsara Picasso - the diesel is really economical.

OOpps not mobility though.

we have a nissan tino, but no longer made. is very roomy, we can fit in a buggy, spare VAD and trolly in the boot, plus shopping.

we have also had a pull sized adult wheelchair in the boot when we went on holiday.

current prices as some have advance payments

Toyota Rav4.

Brakes went spongy day before yesterday so mobility are sorting it out and they have loaned us a Vauxhall Safira. Big and roomy but we both hate it and it's palsticness and stupiud handbrake! We can't wait to get the Rav back.

PS - the Rav is diesel. It is a 4x4 but the samllest type and is so far away from the chelsea tractors I see driven around. It's so easy to drive, small inside, high up so good for putting kids in without doing your back too much damage etc.

we've got a zafira. seems to get knocked a bit on mn!! but i love it. we've got the 1.6 and its really economical. its a lovely runabout and - the best bit - the kids get a row each so they are easily separated when they go off on one!!

i cant get that mobility link to work, has anyone else tried it?

hmm its not working today is it? maybe they are updating their lists. greatcardeals bit is working though

nissan note great car love it

What is that f'ing stupid handbrake all about on the zafira though?

oh that handbrake is huge isnt it teecee, i looked in shock at that in sparklys zafira.

I just looked at it too, then got out and got in the passenger seat and made D drive!

oh my dh loves it - he says it almost looks like a throttle on an aircraft!

what he doest like are the sides of the windscreen - youve got the windscreen then a bar then a little triangular window then another divider - you have a real blind spot.

oh, he says if someone was to go for the zafira, he would advise going for the 2 rather than the 1.6 if they can afford the fuel and extra deposit! cos its a bit tough to get up steep hills, especially if youre fully loaded!

DH is thinking along the lines of a mondeo/vectra, has anyone had any of these?

We have been to a few garages and DH has decided on a zafira, he would like a 2.0 but we cant afford the extra deposit so he,s setteled on a 1.6 in metro blue colour.

The extra seating row did it for me, its very useful in seperateing my 2 when they start going on one which is very frequent!!!!!

Got to wait till april now and i cant wait!!!

I need one that I can ramp the wheelchair into the back but it also has space for me, DH and 2 other kids. Someone told me that Kangoo do a 4 seater with wheelchair space and no deposit.
Any thoughts.
