Great

* Drives like the car of your dreams
* So beautifully engineered you'll have to stroke it every time you walk past
* Comfy enough to use every day and go touring in

Gripes

* A little tricky to get in to – think of it as a yoga exercise
* Park carefully: aluminium body panels are expensive to replace
* Sat-nav adds £1800, R-Tronic semi-auto gearbox is more than £5000
DriveDrive rating - 5 out of 5 stars
Yes please. Forget sat-nav, you want to take the long way round
 ReliabilityReliability rating - 4 out of 5 stars
It may be a new model, but the engine is tried and tested
InsideInside rating - 4 out of 5 stars
Audi haute couture: beautifully built and comfortable too
 SpaceSpace rating - 3 out of 5 stars
Hardly an MPV, but there's room for golf clubs on the back seat and a suitcase under the bonnet
SafetySafety rating - 4 out of 5 stars
Electronic driver aids come as standard and the brakes are superb
 Standards and extrasStandards and extras rating - 4 out of 5 stars
Flashy basic kit but adding options is eye-wateringly expensive
