    Excellent. Used, you get a lot of car for your money.

    Costs

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Servicing is very reasonable, compared to other manufacturers. Fuel economy will never be comparable to a 2wd car, but mpg is similar to Freelander/ CRV/ RAV4 etc.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very good around town and great driving position. Very easy to park. Quiet cabin on motorways, but 1.6 engine is a bit underpowered at 70mph.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    1.6 is quicker than I expected in what is actually quite a heavy vehicle. Cornering ability is OK, but not as good as Freelander/ CRV.
