I drive 10,000 miles pa diesel or petrol turbo
About 9 years ago you recommended the Kia Sorento - we bought the petrol engine automatic one, it has proved a first class trouble free motor. We would like the same or similar again.
We drive about 10,000 miles a year. Current model Sorentos' are all diesels. Audi Q5 has a petrol engine with turbo?
Can not see my wife parking outside the shoe shop and waiting two minutes for the turbo to cool!

Not many petrol auto 4WDs. Currently the RAV-4 2.0i Valvematic Multidrive S is the most efficient, but new model round the corner. The new Honda CR-V petrol auto is disappointing. Testing another new Sorento in October.
