Thanks for all the car advice - you are a friendly bunch in here. Me and Ma ended up buying a '03 Mitsu Airtrek, 2.0l 2WD version with low K's. Merry xmas and new year and happy motoring to you all :o)

Yup will do Jazz :o)
thanks Stevo2
Made them give me a thing that not only hooks into the door and becomes an extra handle for Ma, but if I take the car swimming I can cut my seat belt and smash the window lolthat and a slide sheet thing to help get her in and out :o)

If the day comes where its getting even more difficult to get your Ma in and out I have seen this sort of thing available in Japan as a used vehicle. They will likely get quite affordable over the next few years as they have been around for some time and quite popular in Japan.
Just something to tuck in the back of your mind, anything that lets you both enjoy time together out and about for as long as possible has to be a good thing.

Lol thanks that is incredibly hideous but very functional and would be useful!

LOL, I am all for the best tool for the job. Just occasionally Toyota make something worthwhile. And you know how I like hideous but functional things!
Anyhow Pukeko, hopefully a while before you need one.
