CRV. Petrol auto slow and juicy. 2.2iDTEC auto can be reliable as long as you drive far enough to keep the DPF clear.

Stylish and upmarket looks. Good quality feel to the interior. Seven-year warranty as standard. Very low CO2 for an SUV. Well equipped.
1.6 i-DTEC is punchy and efficient, massive boot and a spacious cabin for five adults, superb build quality edges the CR-V into premium territory.
Comfortable to drive with a robust interior, good engines, popularity means lots of choice on the used market.
