Bigger is better with revamped Grandland

Vauxhall's large family car combines size with style, writes Frederic Manby

There's a new Vauxhall which you should take a look at if you want a largish five-seater.

It is another joint job with Opel, its longtime German sister brand. An extra seven inches in length brings a roomier interior. It's the biggest Vauxhall we've seen since the Monterey.

The load area has a supported platform 60 inches long when the seats are down. The floor width is a constant 40 inches wide and a similar tailgate width means you can carry bulky white goods like a fridge or washing machine.
