All great choices Dougie and although I’m not currently an owner of any one of them, these are my opinions. Mrs 72 dudes is looking at exactly this list plus the Volvo XC40 and DS7 Crossback. 1). Citroen C5 Aircross. A lot of car for the AP, distinctive look, sublime ride. Interior quality not as good as CX5 and Tiguan. 2) CX5. Possibly the best looking of the three, lovely interior. Firm ride compared to the others, will the non turbo engine have the guts in every day driving compared to the others? 3) Tiguan. Nice chunky upmarket looks especially R Line, quality interior and fittings. Harsher ride on R line suspension with big wheels, it’s a diesel, everybody on here has one! Difficult to call until you’ve had your own test drive in each, but all 3 great cars.
Thanks. The DS7 was actually top of my list but by the time you’ve added on the cost of the rear camera and the red paint I’d like, the AP is a fairly chunky £2800. Couple that with the fact that my nearest dealer is over 20 miles away and it’s kind of put me off slightly. Awesome looking car though and the interior is sublime.
