Out those 3 I'd go with the Yeti all day long

This is coming from somebody who's owned neither but I don't feel like I could ever fully trust a Fiat or a Renault lol. The Yeti seems to be held in pretty high regard, a close friends parents have one and they seem very well made and we'll thought out. To be honest aswell the Yeti just looks a LOT better! Seem some really cool looking modified examples

That good?! That you compare it with a Merc and BMW.. and not with the likes of Mazda 6, Passat, ingigna etc..

I would steer clear of the doblo and kangoo. The Yeti is an all round well built reliable vehicle. It constantly receives positive reports from motorist journalists/organisations and i have a few aquaintances that own one and regularly rave about their economy and reliabilty

My ex has a Skoda Octavia VRS - his best mate had a BMW M3. Both agreed the Octavia was the better car

Better car for the money,, I'm guessing?

We have a yeti through the motability scheme for my disabled mum.

It is fantastic. We have an automatic and the gear change is so smooth you hardly notice it. Only a 1.2l engine but you wouldn't know, it has plenty of power and oomph. Fuel economy is great.

If I had to pick anything I don't like about it i would say the interior mirror is a little small.

With it being a motability car we get a new one every 3 years, we've had our yeti for 18 months. When the time comes to get a new car we plan on having another yeti rather than looking at anything else.

You can buy the larger clip on mirrors if that's any help to you at all? I'm guessing it's probably got an auto dimming mirror on it though which you won't want to lose right?

We did get a larger clip on mirror - I like to see out of the entire back window and not half of it!
