Hi,
Looking for a new car. First priority is lots of luggage space during week needing only 2 people seats, carrying a lot of stuff for my job. Being used for family of four on weekends and holidays, driving longer distances. Want safety, ease of driving and parking. I am used to a smaller car. I have test driven the Honda, and like it. But is the Wish going to be better as it has a bit more space? Or will it be harder to get in and out of carparks? I imagine having the car for 5 years. Will Honda hold value over the Wish? Is one going to be any more reliable, cheaper to maintain? Thanks for any help with this.

Hi there,
Both these cars are popular choices and potentially hold their value fairly equally if they are both imports. They are not very large vehicles and so parking shouldn't be an issue. Another possibility to look at would be the Mitsubishi Outlander, with the 7-seater having huge boot space with the seats down.

Great thank you.
