Hi Laura, you sound very similar to our situation. We currently have a Sportage and would have happily taken another but not on scheme. Concerned that it may/may not come back in Q2 but even then who knows what the AP might be for the new facelift version.
We have had a virtual tour of the Grandland Ultimate online but Vauxhall have said they will not be in dealers until 25th Feb (but they have been giving moveable dates out since last October, so no guarantees ). AP is ok for their Ultimate trim but missing some features we would like as a family. Some people ordered this car last April/May so the uncertainty over waiting times is putting me off.
We like the Kuga ST Line + and Vignale but think the AP is a little too much at over £3k.
The Tuscon seems to have everything we were looking for and thought the 1.6 Petrol was ok (but probably over priced) in terms of AP.
The Peugeot 3008/5008 I liked but my wife thought was “too dark” inside for the children, not sure how accurate that is!
