8/10DaciaSandero£6,770 – £11,390The Sandero is deservedly doing well: a reasonable car for a frankly astonishing price.
7/10RenaultCaptur£17,370 – £24,920If it ain't broke, don't fix it; updated Captur is still one of the better small crossovers on sale
7/10NissanJuke£14,935 – £25,170The looks might be polarising but it's not actually ugly and certainly not – bigger crime – bland
7/10CitroenC3£15,935 – £20,200Good but not great supermini for dynamics, but a thoroughly enjoyable object
7/10HondaJazzn/aNot sexy, not fun, not a heartstring-tugger, but by gum is this a clever car. Brilliantly fit for purpose
7/10ToyotaC-HR£29,940 – £32,420The looks are polarising, but if you want it, you’ll really really want it.
6/10FordEcoSport£18,425 – £22,840Ford has gone to work on the updated EcoSport, dragging it from a blot on its record to a class contender
6/10ToyotaCorolla£23,985 – £31,210The Corolla is back, looking better than ever, but still short on fun
6/10RenaultCaptur£17,370 – £24,920Jumped-up Clio is miles less tinny than the old one. Breaks no rules, but it's good-looking, refined and comfy
6/10SsangyongRexton£27,125 – £37,125A giant, kitted out seven-seat 4x4 for the price of a top-spec Qashqai. Only apply if you like your driving rufty-tufty
6/10ToyotaC-HR£29,940 – £32,420C-HR handles well and looks quirky, but hybrid and infotainment systems let the package down
5/10Hyundaii20£13,950 – £18,600Worthy supermini that majors on ease of use and grown-up design. Fun is in short order though
5/10MitsubishiASX£20,110 – £25,880It’s not that the ASX is truly bad by any stretch of the imagination, it’s just that its competition is newer. And better.
5/10VauxhallMokka X£20,360 – £27,260Easy to own but there's not a lot of flair compared to its myriad rivals
4/10Hyundaii800£25,585 – £27,985Failed your family planning classes? You need a Hyundai i800. More budget airline than captain's chair, but needs must.
4/10LexusCT 200h£26,055 – £33,105To call this a posh Prius may sound a little harsh, but that’s what it is.
