Excellent, very attractive car. Drives superbly. I previously had the XC40 — that was fine, but the BMW suits me better in pretty much every respect.

VW T-Roc

The VW T‑Roc feels noticeably more grown‑up than before, with a much nicer cabin, sensible physical controls and a calm, well‑insulated ride that makes long trips comfortable. It’s compact and city‑friendly with practical rear seating, but the sloping roofline reduces rear headroom and tempting options can quickly push the price up, so buyers after maximum space or a sporty feel may want to consider alternatives.

I've been driving the VW T‑Roc for a few months now and I'm totally satisfied. 🚗 The higher seating position gives me a great feeling of security and the visibility in city traffic is excellent. I especially like the modern infotainment system — everything works intuitively and quickly. On the motorway it feels very calm and stable, even at higher speeds. Overall a great car that's a lot of fun and still economical.
