Tell us about your life

We start with you, not cars. Commute distance, family size, parking situation, how you drive. No car knowledge needed. The quiz takes about 4 minutes and covers everything that actually affects which car is right for you.

WHAT WE LOOK AT
  • Daily mileage and commute type
  • Household and passenger needs
  • Cargo and lifestyle (dogs, sports, towing)
  • Charging situation for EVs
  • Budget: purchase and monthly running
  • Fuel preference and body style

We score every match

We analyse your answers against a database of every mainstream car sold in the UK. We score each model against reliability data, running costs, safety ratings, boot space and your exact budget.

WHAT WE LOOK AT
  • Reliability data from real owner reports
  • Running costs personalised to your mileage
  • Euro NCAP safety ratings
  • Insurance group estimates
  • Boot space vs your cargo needs
  • EV range vs your real-world use
