    Hi all, thanks for answers so far.
    I haven’t looked at the van based vehicles but the one Vinalspin mentions sounds impressive.

    I should be looking at petrol really as my diesel Alhambra chokes up around town and I have to take it for a run.
    I like many things about the Alhambra, particularly the comfy seats. I just dare not order the 1.4 petrol version incase it is underpowered. Finding one to test drive is impossible and it will most probably only give low 30s mpg.

    Why do DPFs cause such problems and why can’t vehicles achieve something like the advertised mpg. ?
    Whether you buy or lease you only find out the truth about a vehicle when you’ve run it for a while. Bit like Political parties!

    Thanks again for any advice, anyone want to know about running an Alhambra, just ask.
    Regards, wonky
