Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Car that fits wheelchair

    I am looking to find a car that can fit a wheelchair in the boot but is not too big as my daughter will be learning to drive in it soon.

    It will only have the wheelchair on occasion.

    I was looking at Toyota's - any advice appreciated.

    For ease of access and loading, I would suggest a small estate car.

    Depending on the person using the chair in terms of getting in and out of the seats look for something with larger doors. I know a lad a few years ago who was a wheelchair user but drove his own car changed from a 3 door corolla to a 3 door focus as focus had a much wider door giving him easier access and he was able to put the chair behind his seat. Will the chair in question fold? If so it would fit in most boots

    A Honda Jazz might be something to look at as well. I'm not certain about the ease of access as the seats are relatively high... Rest of it should tick a lot of boxes though, might be something to go and have a look at.
