Used Family Cars for Sale

Family Cars

Although family cars are generally all-rounders, there might be some cars that tend to be better in some areas. The Ford Focus is a prime example of a brilliant family car that also doubles up as an engaging car to drive. Similarly, the Nissan Juke, although a crossover SUV, is a spacious and practical car that is also more affordable than conventional hatchbacks. The Skodas, particularly the Octavia and the Superb, are some of the best family cars, combining great powertrains and chassis with clever design and tech. As you might have guessed by now, you will be spoilt for choices when it comes to family cars. Every car also has something to offer, making the whole mix interesting.

Family Car buying guide

Before investing in a used family car, it would be great to align your priorities. If you need to ferry three to school, fitting them in the rear seats will be quite a challenge, so it might be preferable to look at a bigger family car or maybe an estate. Though most car seats and vehicles themselves universally use Isofix child fittings, it's worth making sure you can fit any child seats before proceeding with a purchase.

Apart from this, you should check a family car for other pointers such as engine/gearbox conditions, tyres, and all electric and tech features are working as intended. Also, make sure to check if the vehicle has a solid service and maintenance history. Last but not least, make sure you conduct a detailed visual inspection, followed by a long test drive to make sure you are buying the right car for you, and most importantly, your family!
