- For: Space, price, efficiency
- Against: Cheap interior, dull to drive
- Verdict: You can’t buy more space for less cash
The Dacia Logan MCV is Britain’s cheapest estate car.
Its 573-litre boot extends to 1,518 litres with the rear seats down, making the Logan the toast of the tip and a firm favourite of the flat-pack generation.
For some context, an Audi A6 Avant boasts a 565-litre boot, extending to 1,680 litres with the seats folded.
Not that Dacia is going to be stealing sales from Audi.
In basic Access form, the Logan MCV is a little short of kit. However, for an extra £1,000, the Essential adds air conditioning, central locking and electric front windows.
The Access is also limited to the 75hp 1.0-litre petrol engine, which is the weakest unit. The 90hp 1.0 turbo petrol is usefully gutsier – if still dull to drive.
Comfort trim completes the standard range, with the Logan MCV Stepway offered as a standalone model.
It’s the best looking version, but despite appearances, doesn’t offer any off-road ability.
