Looking for an extra-comfy car...
The question
I saw the Skoda Fabia - Toyota Yaris comparison. I am looking for a car with a smooth drive as my dear wife has back problems and feels every bump. Also, do othropedic seats that you place on the car seat help?
Thanks,
Allan

Hi Allan,
Orthopaedic seat covers can help, right enough, but it can be a bit of a process of trial and error, and I’d say the best bet in that instance is to get some advice from your doctor, or your back specialist if you have one. As for cars with the best ride quality, the Yaris is pretty good in that respect (although the heavier hybrid version is perhaps less good), but the best bet is, whatever car you’re going to buy, make sure you go for the smallest possible wheel option, with the largest possible tyre sidewall profile. It’s the secret to a comfy ride.
