Going from a larger to smaller car

[CanNik]

I will miss my Grand Scenic when the Kuga arrives

??? Your new car is longer, and wider, and 5mm less tall...

 

[CanNik]

Yes but the seats in the Scenic come out fully at the back they don't in the Kuga a MASSIVE difference

It is, doesn't make the Kuga smaller though

It really doesn’t Measurements are pretty absolute and the Kuga is the larger vehicle.

I take your point, although you didn’t actually make it, that it is not as practical. But then again you are comparing an MPV to a jacked up hatchback. And technically the rear bench in the Kuga can not only be folded but also removed. Difference is that it is with screws. In my daughters golf all it took was two screws and voila lift out the rear bench.

The topic title should really be 'from a larger to a smaller car BOOT'!

I do hope you enjoy the Kuga. It should at least drive better than the Grand Scenic!

I had a kuga , not a bad car apart from the vibration from the engine , you could see the bonnet vibrating , but apparently it was normal

I am not a car person and really, the Scenic 1.9 is still a dream to drive and under 9.8 seconds to 60 is as fast as the Ford !

no , it was the 2.0 tdci , good engine but deffo not the most refined , the old 2.5 petrol engine was a Volvo lump and a beast , god knows who makes that new 2.5 petrol , what was it , 110bhp in the name of economy !!! , I’ve got a 1.6 petrol that has nearly double that
