    Hi ChrisK. You should then be ordering the facelift model for autumn delivery. Will be called Elegance instead of SEL and should keep all the standard goodies. Gets those touchy sliders for the climate panel. The boot has a higher load height than the touran but my hoist works well. Mexican build quality just fine so far! Stop start and ACC better calibrated than Touran, but still unsuited to heavy motorway traffic imho.  lane assist a surprisingly forceful tug if you don’t indicate  – as if!

    Returned this evening from a 200 mile round trip, A31, M27, M3 plus some snarled urban hell at the other end. Brimmed the tank on return to get an accurate overall mpg of 37.5 mpg and the trip computer said 37.9. Engine loosening up perhaps. My 2005 2.2 diesel CRV returned 38 mpg on my long motorway commute but at lower speeds 45+ mpg. A brick, but never let me down over 80,000 miles.
