Estate Diesel Petrol Reviews

The Kia Cee'd is the car that lobs the paving slab of reality into the windscreen of preconception. It might be a straight clone of a Toyota/Ford/VW hatch, but it’s a damn good one.

Not the most rounded family estate, but the big Pug oozes desirability. Much cooler than a 3 Series

The Peugeot 508 SW is a better car than the Citroen C5 Tourer it shares its chassis with.

The Clubman has charm but, although roomier, it’s not as fun to drive as it was.

A refreshing niche that ain’t a crossover, but not as sporty as billed

More grown up and all the better for it. Priced very keenly too - it's a smart shout.

Much better to drive than the A-Class it’s based on, plus it’s more useful than the saloon. Buy one of these, not a crossover

This is among the best compact estates on sale (partly because it isn’t really compact at all).

It's taken Volkswagen a surprising amount of time to get here, but finally we have a Golf Estate that's up with the best.

Not as much fun as a Focus Estate, but more comfortable, practical and very well thought out. Looks the part, too.

Another convincing effort from Hyundai and a tempting alternative to the more obvious Mondeo.

Skoda’s kept all of what we loved about the old Superb (size, space, value) and added updated interior tech and a genuinely stylish body. Verging on genius
