The Ford Grand C-Max (2015-19) is a family MPV, not an SUV or ordinary hatchback, with seven-seat flexibility in a manageable size. This Zetec combines a 1.5-litre diesel with a six-speed Powershift automatic. It competes with people-carriers such as the Volkswagen Touran and Citroën Grand C4 Picasso. Sliding rear doors ease access in narrow parking spaces, and the adaptable cabin works well for school runs, family trips and carrying bulky loads. The diesel is especially suited to regular longer journeys; the automatic gearbox adds convenience in traffic. Choose it for useful space and comfort, rather than a sporty drive or city-car economy. mycarcheck.com recorded 896 checks across 412 different VINs, a useful sample; average latest mileage was 60,000 and average private-sale valuation £7,900.
