One of the big problems that I have is that I need a car that has big drivers door opening. I’m finding that my Sorento is now becoming a bit tight for enter and exit.
Yesterday I got into the front passenger seat of a YW. Polo, it was difficult, I’m just too stiff. Hopefully after some cycling I will loosen up.
As it is my car will do fine for probably the rest of my driving life.
The electric cars that would suit me just access wise cost a bomb.
There is a fantastic Kia electric car which would fit the bill but for range and its huge price. Don’t have the readies to buy one.
With all things you have to weigh up the benefits against cost. As it is you lose so much money in the first year, that if bought new that buying one is madness. If I was 20 years younger it may be different.
My car will probably be worth £2,000 in part ex and I would need to fork out £30,000+ if I could find a suitable car. At the moment the type of suitable cars that could possibly be of use to me have only been built in the last two years but range no good.
At 82 years it would be stupid to even consider lashing out a lot of money even if I had it.
