Need a spacious family car for £13k - any suggestions?
I need a new(ish) family car. We have three kids (aged 13, 10 and 4) and the car must be economical, with lots of room in the back and decent ground clearance. My budget is around £13,000 and I don't want to go older then 2010. What do you recommend?

A used KIA Sorento 2.2 KC2 nav or a Hyundai Sorento 2010 or later with the 2.2 R-Type engine, if you can find one for the money. Qashqai +2s, Outlanders, Citroen C Crossers and Peugeot 4007 could also be on the list but don't have much room in the back seats. Captivas and Antaras have 7 seats and reasonable room in the back but aren't much cop.

Strong diesels including impressive 2.2-litre. Comes with seven seats. New six-speed automatic. More premium feel than previous Sorento. Great value for money.
