We are thinking of changing our car but can't make up our minds which to go for? Renault Megane, Citroen zara or Kia. We need space for the three children in the back all are between 11 and 16 so they need space and we need tranquilizers after a day out in our squashed car with them! Anyone with any opinions as to which would be best. Eileen

Hi Eileen, I don't know anything about cars but my brother has just bought a Kia Sedona (is that right). It's a mpv and has bags of room. We have a Peugot and must admit it is a struggle for space. Luckily my eldest two don't really come out with us now thankfully as my son is 6'5" and hubby 6'3" so not a lot of leg room. Best car we had was our old Volvo estate, great for space. Hope you get what your looking for.

We want a Kia Sedona. Put Kia Sedona into Google and loads of sites come up. We looked at all the pros and cons listed and basically it comes out as a pretty good vehicle if you don't mind not having a prestige name badge. and they are very cheap even brand new although I personally don't think it's worht buying a brand new car as they devalue too quickly. Hope this helps Pam

We have got Renault Megane/Scenic - love it, our favourite car ever. When this one is up for renewal, we're going to have another one - first time we've ever chosen a repeat! Our son is almost 6'2" with very long legs and there's plenty of room in the back for him plus my parents when they come out with us. But because there's no '3rd row', it's not a massive car and really easy to park. We both really like driving it.

Thanks everyone for your comments. The "pussycat" seems really good. I like the idea of 600mls per tank and we also have to get an automatic as my husband is disabled. So the passat is definitely worth a second thought. Don't like the idea of waiting months for parts with the Kia! Still leaning towards the Renault Megane. Going to Glasgow next week for a look around the showrooms. Thanks everyone. Eileen
