Citroen Holidays

The Citroën Holidays wraps the brand's cheerful French charm into a holiday-ready package, with cosy, flexible interiors and styling that makes every errand feel like the start of a mini break. It won't thrill the petrolhead, but as a clever, easygoing companion for family getaways and weekend escapes it delivers exactly what most buyers want: comfort, personality and a mischievous sense of fun.

Mercedes C Class Estate

The Mercedes C-Class wagon dresses Mercedes refinement in a sensible, practical package, marrying a sleek estate silhouette with a plush, high-quality cabin that feels more premium than its badge implies. It quietly soaks up motorway miles and cartloads of family kit with composed handling and effortless comfort — a clever alternative to an SUV for buyers who still like to steer.

To me, the CLA's interior and front end are tasteless and an affront — the C estate is clearly much more attractive.
