Its time for a new car and as I now qualify for Motability I have had a look at their list.
I want a 4x4 for my next car for a number of very good reasons.
So If anyone drives one of the list below, please tell me, whats good about it? Whats bad about it and would you have another?

Mini Countryman
Skoda Yeti
Ford Kuga
Mini Paceman
VW Tiguan


Many thanks in advance

We've got a Yeti. It's the 2wd greenline job but we're really happy with it. I'd definitely get another. I like everything about it to be honest, and all I'd change is more poke and bluetooth! The seats in the back being removable etc is really handy too...

Is the Tiguan any good?
I am restricted to the motability list of makes and models.

Had a Countryman and liked it but I think the Yeti is a better car. The boot space on the Mini is terrible and I doubt you would fit a wheelchair inside if needed. The ride and refinement could be better too. The Paceman is basically the same but with only 2 doors. I believe these are about to be replaced soon which will affect residuals though I'm not sure if that matters with the Motobility scheme.

Yeah residuals don't matter. Its a £1,000 deposit and the mobility part of the allowance takes care of the rest. Could have a poverty spec Q3 buts its a £2.5k deposit frown
