What £60k car should I suggest for my mum?

My mum has a Nissan Qashqai and would like to replace it. A high driving position is a must for her, as is an automatic gearbox, she would like a high tech list, similar to the Tekna spec on the Nissan. She has a budget of around £60k. What should I tell her to consider?

A Range Rover Velar might appeal to your mother. It starts at £45,000 but a £60,000 budget will get a top-spec HSE model with a few options. I'd also consider a Volvo XC90 or, if that's too big, a high-spec XC60.
