WITH the advent of the holiday season, VW is promoting its Sharan as a practical solution to journeys with buckets, spades and screaming kids.

Its seven seats, two integrated child seats, air conditioning, heat-insulated, tinted glass and numerous storage areas are features that would attract a family looking for holiday transport.

Until the end of September there is a £900 on-the-road price reduction making the 2-litre Sharan SL £17,495.
