Citroën C4 SpaceTourer

Citroën has a strong track record with MPVs – its Xsara Picasso was one of the most popular compact people-movers going. The latest in the line are the SpaceTourer and Grand SpaceTourer, and despite the silly name (even worse than ‘Picasso’) they’re thoroughly accomplished cars.

Bold styling inside and out is quintessentially French, and all that glass area pays dividends – frontal visibility in this car is staggering. It’s also superbly comfortable and, with one of the 1.6-litre BlueHDI diesel engines, amazingly efficient, too. Truly one of the best of the breed.

SEAT Alhambra

The Alhambra adopts a different approach than the Citroen does – it’s straight, sensible and spacious in every sense of the word. With sliding doors for added practicality and genuine room for seven adults, this is a brilliant MPV.

It’s perhaps not what you’d expect from the stylish Spaniards at Seat, but here’s a secret – the Alhambra is the exact same car as the Volkswagen Sharan, only with a healthy price cut. That’s worth considering for anybody.

Kia Carens

The Kia Carens isn’t the biggest MPV about, nor is it the best to drive, but it’s a thoroughly accomplished all-rounder. With seven seats as standard and – even more impressively – a seven-year warranty, it’s ideal for buyers who want to keep their car for a long time.

It’s also reasonably stylish for an MPV thanks to Kia’s tiger-nose grille, and an excellent reputation for dependability plus good crash test scores are just two more feathers in the Carens’ cap.

Ford S-Max

The best-driving MPV may seem like a pretty poor accolade – a bit like receiving the ‘best loser’ award at a school sports day – but in the case of the S-Max it’s both justified and impressive. The S-Max is based on the same platform as the previous Mondeo, giving it seriously impressive handling – this is one MPV that you might actually want to hustle down a back road.

Seven decent-sized seats and pleasantly angular styling are also handy to have, while a range of efficient diesel engines help keep costs down.
