We're not here to preach. It's your money and you can and should do whatever you choose with it. But before you go and buy a new SUV because most of your neighbours have one or you've seen a slick TV ad with a happy family going wakeboarding, there are a few things you might want to consider.
An equivalent family hatchback would be a cheaper option. It would also drink less fuel - which, even if you aren't that fazed by the cost of living crisis, is a good thing for the environment. It would most likely be nearly as practical. And it isn't just the boring, sensible stuff, either, because being closer to the ground helps make a car more agile, which in turn means you can have more fun behind the wheel.
