My Latest Vehicle for Christmas and beyond, this VW Multivan has space for 7 tall adults to sit in comfort.

This is a VW Multivan Long, which aims to provide the space of a passenger van and the ride sophistication of an executive car.

It features electric sliding doors, 7 leather-clad seats that move independently on rails and air-conditioning. Moreover, there are cup-holders galore and lots of luggage space.

It's a plug-in hybrid with a gas engine, so we won't be stopping to charge the batteries, but can enjoy silent-running in traffic.

It's real party piece is the huge glass roof that enhances the sense of light and space and allows you to soak up the beautiful architecture of London, Bath and Oxford (as well as our sometimes beautiful blue skies).

I'm looking forward to the year ahead.
