I am disabled and need to replace my car in September, I am interested in automatic MPVs because of the extra height. Can you suggest a model, as I can only find reviews on new manual engines. Have looked at ford C-Max and Renault Scenic.
Answer
These are both good choices. The Automatic version will have the same engines. It is only the gearbox that is different. But with Automatics I am always inclined to go for a bigger engine than I might with a manual. It means the car will never be laboring and the gear changes just seems smoother. With these models you should think about the 1.8 litre rather than the 1.6 litre engines. For a car with big doors for easy access, you could also consider Mazda 5.
