The new Sedona 2.2 CRDi comes with an industry leading seven year warranty and is competitively priced for it’s specification; the automatic is priced at £25,995 on the road. With seven full sized seats, leg room hasn’t been compromised and the cavernous interior has led to the MPV becoming a firm favourite with caravanners.
