We'd recommend a Dacia Sandero Stepway. It's a hatchback with a raised ride height and punchy 0.9-litre petrol engine. It represents excellent value for money, with your budget stretching to a 2017 or 2018 model.

Answered by Honest John. The TCe 90 petrol suits the Sandero better than the 1.5 diesel. (I found it the other way round in the Clio.) But I have not driven the Stepway with either engine. I think same as the Sandero. A big benefit is that the water-cooled exhaust-driven turbo also heats the car up very quickly in winter.

It may not be the fanciest car on the world but it does what it sets out to do. It carries 7 people in a fair amount of comfort. When the 2 rear seats are folded up the boot is huge obviously with them in place a roof box will be needed for all our luggage but then that's most 7 seaters.
