Default New Car for Older Dad - Suggestions?

Howdy All

My dad is in the market for a new small car, and I am after suggestions. He is over 70, and has all the usual afflictions associated with old age, so we are after a car which is smallish, easy to handle, good visibility all round, large doors to get in and out. Seats need to be comfortable and high, as is needed by those who are not so able bodied. He is not interested in the latest gadgets on a car: air and heating, power steering, that'd be about it to keep dad happy I reckon.

Dad is a big bloke, and dispite his age, is pretty strong. ie, the car needs to be strong.

Any experience or suggestions? Ford or otherwise?

cheers!
