Top 10: most reliable family cars-revealed

An expensive car when new, the Accord makes much more sense as a used buy due to its solid build quality and impressive reliability. The 2.2 i-DTEC engine was one of the best diesels of its era.

3. Mercedes CLC (08 - 11)

 

Top 10: most reliable family cars-revealed

The Mercedes CLC might be reliable enough to be ranked third by Warranty Direct, but it's let down by a jiggly ride, poor handling and an interior that feels distinctly cheap. On the up side, it's surprisingly practical for a three-door hatchback.
