@ajn you can get the facelift Tucson full hybrid (N Line or Premium) for less than the Sportage petrol and the full hybrids don’t suffer with the PPF) The plug in hybrids are even cheaper. The Tucsn also has a roomier cabin hence why I opted for a second one over the Sportage, albeit they are essentially the same car.
My first Tucson was a petrol manual and I only had the PPF light on once over 18,000 miles, which cleared by itself over 40-50 miles, whils’t driving on A and B roads on way to visit my parents.
The XC4 is starting to look dated by comparison with modern offerings.
