One recent, lovely warm weekend morning, I thought it’d be nice to go for a long family walk in one of the nearby bigger parks – a 10-minute drive away – accompanied by our kids, one on a bike and the other on a scooter.
Problem was, the bike wouldn’t fit in the Auris’s 279-litre boot, no matter how many different ways I twisted the handlebars. It didn’t stop us from heading out, but meant rather than taking a leisurely stroll, we went for a walk/ride/scoot near our home – which wasn’t quite as relaxing because of the number of main roads that had to be negotiated.
