Can you recommend any dual clutch small/medium crossovers?

For the last 25 years I have always had torque converter automatics as well as driving the odd CVT and I am now looking to change my car again. I have been somewhat surprised that although there are still a few autos around such as those produced by the PSA Group and some of the premium brands, most manufacturers are now only using dual clutch transmissions or a few CVTs. I understand the economy and performance reasons for this but are there any dual clutch small/medium crossovers that are as smooth as a good torque converter or CVT, particularly when creeping in very slow traffic or shunting backwards and forwards to squeeze into a tight parking bay?

The latest VW Group cars – so cars like the new Golf, Skoda Octavia and Audi A3 – have twin-clutch gearboxes that creep at slow speeds, so they're not as tricky to manoeuvre into parking spaces and the like as an old dual-clutch. They're not quite as smooth as, say, the ZF eight-speed gearbox you get in BMWs, but they're pretty close.
