Category: Large MPV 
Price Range: £16,800 to £22,700
Practical, easy-to-use rear-seating system: plenty of kit; good value for money.
Bouncy ride, unsupportive seats, noisy engine around town, poor handling.
It's not wonderful to drive but if you have a large family, the roomy cabin makes this MPV fit for purpose.
The 2.0-litre Journey emits 171g/km of carbon dioxide and that puts it in road tax Band E, which compares favourably with others in the class. Official fuel consumption figures suggest that you'll get around 43mpg from the 2.0-litre diesel. Go for the 2.4-litre petrol and you achieve 32.1mpg on average but you'll be emitting 209g/km of carbon dioxide.
Insurance payments shouldn't be too horrendous: the 2.4-litre is in group 11 and the 2.0-litre diesel is in group 10 or 11 depending on the transmission choice.
