The Citroën C5 Aircross feels like a sofa on wheels, delivering a calm, floaty ride and clever packaging that makes life with luggage and kids noticeably easier. Quirky French styling and a supremely practical, family-focused cabin mean it quietly wins hearts by prioritising comfort over showroom bravado.

Jeep Renegade

The Jeep Renegade wears its chunky, boxy looks like a badge of character, blending genuine off-road swagger with city-friendly manners so it feels at home on a muddy trail or a tight urban lane. Inside you'll find a surprisingly practical cabin with rugged touches and clever storage, making it a sensible choice for buyers who want a compact SUV with personality rather than just another anonymous crossover.
