Want a new car with big boot
Options
We are in the market for a car with enough space for 4 adults and luggage for 4 people, we are not at all interested in kudos or fashion, it needs to be reliable and have air con that's none negotiable.
But we need your expert help, we have a budget of £13k and a car to trade in worth about £1500 ish.
In the magazines they talk about "Target price", is it possible to get this even lower?
We want a new car but other than it being safe with air con and good space we are not fussy about the make/model.
Please can some of you car experts help us with where to start looking at?
Thank you in advance

Try car brokers for discounted prices on new cars. I used carfile to buy my new Golf Plus (which also has a nice lot of space for a family).0

Thanks for the replies so far, I am thinking the part of my post where I put my budget has been overlooked?
We are looking at lot's of different cars at the moment, but personal reccomendations are always welcome, as are insights in how to talk down the "target price" if possible.
Thanks0
