I am looking for a new tow car as the car I currently own is leased through Motability. It is a Mazda 6 automatic petrol. As the title says I am looking for a new car which would be an automatic diesel estate.
I don't want a 4 x 4 as they are too high for me to get into as I am wheelchair dependent. I know the X-Trail is low and I can get into one of them but I don't want to pay the high road tax for this kind of vehicle.
I am looking at the following:
Ford Mondeo
Volkswagen Passat
Volvo V70
All are available but the Mondeo is hard to get as it looks like everyone wants one.
I have heard good and bad reports about the DSG gearbox in the Passat so I am a bit unsure about that.
I have not heard any reports about the Volvo but I am sure there is someone out there with one who could shed some light on this for me.
The car will be second hand and be a maximum of five years old so any information on any of these cars would be gratefully appreciated. I am looking to change in April or May so as much information as I can get would be a massive help.
I know it is a lot to ask but all information is helpful.
Many thanks
Dougy
