9/10SkodaSuperb Estate£25,420 – £40,280Skoda’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
8/10Land RoverRange Rover Evoque£31,130 – £50,165Land Rover plays with a winning formula just enough. The Evoque remains a stylish, accomplished choice
8/10SkodaOctavia Estate£20,680 – £29,700Not as much fun as a Focus Estate, but more comfortable, practical and very well thought out. Looks the part, too.
8/10AudiA3 Sportback£22,500 – £37,925Fussy design inside and out doesn’t spoil a really rather good family hatchback
8/10Land RoverRange Rover Evoque£31,130 – £50,165The Evoque is pretty much all we hoped it’d be, a crossover to fall for.
Editor’s choice8/10SkodaSuperb£24,140 – £39,000Bigger and better than ever, the Superb offers a whole lot of car for the cash.
7/10JaguarXF£34,725 – £52,125In isolation, the Jaguar XF is a good car. But against an immensely talented - and varied - crop of rivals, it falls a little short
7/10AudiA5 Sportback£34,525 – £56,240Beautifully built and beautiful to look at. But the A4 is 98 per cent as good, cheaper and less pretentious.
7/10VolkswagenT-Roc£20,265 – £37,540Just what the market ordered. Stylish crossover for people who don't need family space. But don't dig too deep beyond that
7/10AudiA3 E-Tron£22,500 – £37,925Not the perfect solution to all your motoring needs, but a great first effort at a useable everyday hybrid.
7/10MiniCountryman£23,125 – £37,375Biggest Mini yet is the least fun to drive. But new Countryman has practicality on its side.
7/10AudiA5£34,525 – £56,240Superb design and refinement cloak a nondescript driving experience. Again
7/10AudiA3£22,500 – £37,925The definitive example of rock-solid, sensible, impeccable German engineering
