What you should pay for your next new car
Volkswagen Caddy Maxi Life MPV
What Car? rating - 2 out of 5
FOR  The Caddy's big, well made and surprisingly good to drive. It seats seven fairly easily.
AGAINST  Proper MPVs offer more flexible seating, and the Caddy doesn't make up for it with a budget price tag. The safety kit is disappointing, too.
