Back-friendly

I suffer from an acute spine problem. My Bolero has been of great help since I can’t sit in low-seated cars, but it’s now getting old. I am in urgent need of a car that offers good lumbar support and comfortable seats. Kindly advice.

AAA You haven’t mentioned your budget, but we assume you are looking to upgrade to something better than your Bolero. We feel the Renault Duster might work for you as the seating position is quite high and the ride quality is superb. The Duster’s long travel suspension will cushion your back from bad roads. However, do check for the availability of a Renault dealer in Pathankot. Alternatively, the Suzuki S-cross, due in May 2015, is another option you could consider. It may not offer the same ride comfort of the Duster, but being a Maruti, you can be assured of a service infrastructure that is reliable and close to you.
