Which small crossover do you recommend?
Which small petrol crossover do you recommend - FIAT 500X, Renault Captur or Peugeot 2008?

The 2008 has at last got Peugeot's new 1.2 Puretech engine, but only in 110PS/205Nm form with a rather sloppy five-speed transmission. The Captur should by now be available with Renault's 120PS 1.2TCe engine and a manual box. With the Fiat, the only serious options are the 1.6 and 2.0 Multijet diesels, assuming you do enough miles to justify a diesel.
