My impressions are based on only a three-day test drive, and they are excellent. The test drive "convinced" me to buy the Cupra Terramar, and I am currently waiting for the model I ordered.

Test drove both, Terramar is more liveable for a family as more practical with larger interior space and feels more premium overall. The Formentor in VZ form is super fast and agile and great fun to drive, but feels less premium all round. I also think the Terramar looks nicer inside and out.

Had a Terramar for nearly 12 months and it’s proven a great choice. Love the driving experience and that fact it’s less common than Tiguan/Q3 cousins. V2 spec gives you so much kit you don’t need any extras.

A better-equipped version of a car that's technically very similar to the Q3, offered at a more attractive price.
