    Best 7-seater under $30k?

    Toyota Toyota Advice Toyota Kluger Toyota Kluger Advice Toyota Kluger 2013 Mitsubishi Mitsubishi Advice Mitsubishi Outlander Mitsubishi Outlander Advice Mitsubishi Outlander 2013

    We are in the hunt for a 7-seater with a budget of $25-28,000. We are a family of four but have parents visiting from overseas and staying for up to a year. We are looking at the 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander LS petrol and the Toyota Kluger KX-S. The Kluger looks big with a big engine that should like a drink, but is spacious. The Outlander is well suited for city driving with a smaller engine, but the two rear-most seats are cramped. What would be your advice?

    You’ll struggle to get a 2013 Kluger KX-S within your budget; you would have to go to an earlier model to find one that fits. You’re right the Kluger is roomier, but thirstier than the Outlander, which would fit within your budget. You say you’re a family of four; presumably two of those are children who might be comfortable in the rear seats. It’s probably a compromise, but it seems the Outlander would be the better choice for your circumstances.
