What Car? Awards 2013

Best Estate Cars of 2013

A big, well-shaped boot is obviously a must for our best estate car of 2013, but so is a low load lip and rear seats that are easy to fold down flat.

The best estate cars have plenty of space for people as well as their luggage, while our winner should also be refined, affordable to run and good to drive.

Best estate car less than £18,000

Kia Ceed Sportswagon

List Price:

£16,895
