Seat Ateca or Skoda Karoq? I’m 6’5″ and had an Ateca for 3yrs, 1.5 Petrol manual and averaged about 36mpg being heavy footed and doing mainly short journeys. Plenty of room and a good sized boot. Or look at a hybrid, pref. a full hybrid (FHEV) for better MPG. Certainly wouldn’t recommend a Vauxhall though! :p
I’m trying to keep below £2250 so the skodas out. I cant remember why I didn’t like the Seat I feel like ive looked at so many cars my minds a blur .. i think it was to do with how the back seats folded in the back if I remember right, there was quite a big ridge which I would struggle with. I dont get why so many car back seats don’t fold completely flat any more it would give so much more room. I normally have part of the back seat down.
My current outlander is a Phev and so economical, that’s what’s worrying me with the MG that there would be such a big difference in fuel but the lower AP makes it so tempting.
