The Citroen Grand C4 Picasso is a stylish, spacious and well-priced compact MPV with seven seats. Auto 'box is not good and residuals poor
The Mitsubishi Evo X is an epic supersaloon, but needs a sixth gear. Manual FQ360 the best
The Vauxhall VXR8 is an unsophisticated sledgehammer that is engaging, entertaining and very different from the German super-coupés that it rivals
The Kia Optima has looks, practicality and value on its side. But in a class of talented models, it is an also-ran.
The Volkswagen Touran has a good chassis but little inspiration and a bland appearance
The Jaguar XF is a sublime British executive saloon. It has a tremendous interior and even greater dynamics
The Toyota Land Cruiser V8 is a dinosaur, but likeable. Pricey to buy and run
The Skoda Roomster shows that practical needn’t mean boring, and makes for an interesting alternative to the traditional estate
The Volvo C70 is a sleek, high-class coupe cabriolet with average handling
The Nissan Qashqai is short on cabin flexibility next to newer rivals but offers a comfortable, fuss-free drive
The RCZ is a classy, interesting, fun coupé that shows Peugeot has got its mojo back
