What is a good cars for an 80 year old?

Asked by Colin

I am almost 80, arthritic, and vehicle access is difficult. I need a centre armrest, a sunroof would be good, FWD is ok. I cannot afford a luxury priced model. Suggestions please.

An SUV would seem to be the best choice given your concerns about getting in and out of the car. Most carmakers now offer FWD versions as well as all-wheel drive models, and without knowing what your budget limitation is I would think an SUV like a Mitsubishi ASX, Mazda CX-5, Subaru Forester or Kia Sorento would fit your needs well.
