Hi

A friend of mine who is a senior citizen and want to buy a new car to replace her standard old car. She is very good driver with very clean driving history. Her current car is Volkswagen golf. She is thinking of buying a new Volkswagen golf but automatic of course (easier to drive). Do you have any other recommendation on which car (brand name) she should consider. Too many options and technologies are not really required, just basic stuff but most be automatic.

Thank you in advance.

As others have said, for seniors, ease of getting in and out is one of the top things. An overlooked option for that is the Ford Taurus. I sits higher than most cars, lower than an SUV. I am 80 and wife was disabled (died last year), both of use could get in/out of the Ford 500 (now Taurus again) without problems. Difference between 'crawling down into" (modern cars) and just turning and sitting down.
