New Cupra Ateca arrives in the UK
We’re rather excited about the new @Cupraofficial #Ateca. If it’s as interesting to drive as it looks, it will be a hoot. It’s up at the top of our ‘to test’ wish list for 2019…

REVIEW – Hyundai Kona Premium GT
We like the looks of the @Hyundai_UK #Kona. Others may not: the looks are striking and split opinion. But with a 177PS turbo petrol engine and adaptive 4WD, it goes pretty well. With heaps of equipment it’s hard not to like it as a family car. If only there was more room in the back…

REVIEW – Volvo XC40 T5 R-Design Pro
There’s a lot to love about the @VolvoCarUK #XC40 T5 R-Design Pro. You don’t win @whatcar Car of the Year for no reason. But get to the higher end of the range, and you could be talking #XC60 money, which will give you some thinking to do…

REVIEW – Seat Ateca 2.0 TSI FR 4DRIVE DSG
We really liked the @SEATUK #Ateca TSI FR. It’s a practical family SUV with a bit of performance. But the upcoming Cupra Ateca will have even more performance – 300PS of it in fact. So it might be better to wait for that. We are. Eagerly.

REVIEW – Seat Leon ST Cupra 300 4DRIVE
SCORE – 48/50. I had a fantastic week with the Cupra. It looks fantastic. The Haldex AWD system is brilliant, and it’s a few grand cheaper than the equivalent Golf R. Being an estate it’s a hugely practical car, but with a small dose of lunacy thrown in for when you want a bit of fun.

REVIEW – Skoda Superb Sportline Hatch
SCORE – 47/50. The Superb Sportline is sleek and executive, yet the sporty touches are there if you look hard enough. And this 280PS Skoda Superb looks identical (badges and all) to the 1.4-litre TSI and 2.0-litre TDI. And that makes it the ultimate sleeper car. Other motorists, beware.
