    The "big" Diesel with AWD is the only engine making sense in a car like this. But most people will buy the petrols or hybrids, w/o missing much. Format: ITs alright, but I'm not sure if you need any "x out of 10" ratings. You're good in talking about the pros and cons, no need to put in into a measurement.

    Hi Joe, good review, however do you think the Road Tax over 40k requires reviewing ??? Vehicles with a list price of more than £40,000 You have to pay an extra £410 a year if you have a car or motorhome with a ‘list price’ of more than £40,000. The list price is the published price of the vehicle before it’s registered for the first time. It’s the price before any discounts are applied. You only have to pay this rate for 5 years (from the second time the vehicle is taxed).
