Thanks LOZ, I drive around 80 miles a day to and from work. From what I have found out I should have quite a confortable ride! I'm still looking around for the right one. :D

Well good luck in your search! I live on surrey/hants borders but work locally, bnot earning very much compared to most families around here. It took me 4 months of seraching to get a current-shape tdi 115, and I was searching nationwide!

I tried all the usual "chains" such as Inchcape, Reg Vardy, Dagenham Motors etc and drew a blank. Eventually went to an MPV "specialist" and even there, had little choice. In fact the car's gone into the local Ford dealer today for a service and investigation of suspension noises.

I use the car to and from work (about 7 miles each way), weekend shopping trips (about 4 miles each way), visits to friends etc, and it's averaging just over 40mpg so far - dashboard computer indicates around 50mpg on relatively traffic-free dual carriageways etc if you don't go over 60mph.

The family finds it very comfortable, but I echo the remarks about parking - it's a wide vehicle (6ft between doors, 7ft between mirror extremities) so some car parks with narrow bays present a bit of a problem, especially where others have parked on the white lines.

Good luck with your search!
