It’s our second Tucson — a diesel manual and a petrol automatic. I can only confirm that our next one in 2027 will be 99.9% a Tucson again. Gorgeous, pleasant, economical and sporty. Top choice.

McLaren GT Series

The McLaren GT takes the supercar blueprint and stretches it into a grand tourer, marrying thrilling pace with genuine long-distance comfort and a cabin that’s actually liveable. If you crave weekend escape capability without surrendering driver engagement, this is the car to consider — though it does attract a fair share of admiring glances.
