Ford Tourneo Courier

The Ford Tourneo Courier is a cheeky, compact people carrier that turns urban errands into a pleasure, thanks to a spacious, cleverly packaged cabin and genuinely practical storage everywhere you look. It drives with reassuringly car-like manners, so the ride is comfy for school runs and shopping trips, and sensible touches like fold-flat seats, a high driving position and plentiful cubbies make it a smart, fuss-free choice for small families and weekend haulers.

Mechanically the car is fairly well built, apart from the rear axle.
The air conditioning is effective and visibility is good, while the FR setup paired with the 18" wheels, in my view, hurts comfort — getting in and out can be awkward. Once on board, though, the seats are very comfortable. The infotainment is comprehensive, with a generously sized screen and full-link smartphone connectivity; the factory sat-nav does what it can, but obviously Maps is superior in every way.
All in all, a fun/sporty car that also winks at family life thanks to a roomy boot and modest fuel consumption.
