the Jogger is spacious and the lack of unnecessary frills and over complex electronics negates frustration and niggles. Practically, it's versatility is great, and the price is unbelievable value.

I chose the T‑Cross — more comfortable and roomier inside, especially for adult passengers; bought on the model‑year clearance — running costs work out cheaper even taking into account fuel savings from the Toyota hybrid (planned over five years); I like the space and the VW suited me better — I prefer the view through the front windshield.
