  BMW 5 Series

  4.5/5

  A mainstay of the executive car class, the BMW 5 Series has been a presence on the UK for decades. Offering a refined experience for passengers with a sporty one for the person behind the wheel, the latest 5 Series continues with the tradition of all-rounder ability and solid build quality. The new 5 Series arrives with a range of electrified options, which aim to make it even more efficient, too.

  Land Rover Defender

  4.0/5

  There was a fair bit of noise when Land Rover relaunched the Defender. It revived a name that had been worn by one of the most legendary off-roaders and when it returned as a more road-focused option, many felt this car had lost its way. However, since then, it has become clear that Land Rover was right with its ‘new’ Defender and today, it’s the brand’s most popular model. Available in a variety of specifications and several engine options, it remains a car that few people would turn down the chance to own.

  Volkswagen Touareg

  4.0/5

  The Volkswagen Touareg has come a long way since the original in 2002. Now in its third generation, the 2023 facelift brings in sharper styling, advanced technology, and a more refined driving experience. It still shares its platform with the Porsche Cayenne (as well as the Audi Q7), so the driving experience is sharper than most large SUVs. It’s an appealing car, with solid engineering and a premium feel, driven by an image of understated luxury.

  BMW M3

  4.3/5

  The BMW M3 is one of the definitive performance saloons. It combines supercar-rivalling performance with the usability of a standard BMW 3 Series. The current G80-generation M3 features BMW's xDrive all-wheel-drive system and, for the first time in the UK, as a practical estate alongside the four-door saloon. Power comes from a twin-turbocharged straight-six petrol engine that delivers strong performance. The M3's dynamic abilities remain a key part of its appeal. It's engaging for experienced drivers while remaining approachable and easy to drive day to day.

  BMW X1

  4.0/5

  The X1 has been the smallest SUV in the BMW range for a number of years now, and always traded on a sporty image and high driver engagement levels. But it has often been a very practical car, and that’s particularly the case with the current model as it offers class-leading space inside. With this blend of engaging handling, high level of standard equipment, and a practical interior, it’s little wonder that it’s a popular car in the UK, both new and used.

  Mercedes E Class

  4.1/5

  The Mercedes-Benz E-Class has always offered style and class in the executive car class, and that’s especially the case with this current generation. While it may not offer a thrilling driving experience, it unquestionably places comfort at the top of its priorities and has all of the latest tech on board. The E-Class has a broad engine range, with the super-efficient plug-in hybrids being a good option for those who might not be ready to go pure electricity yet. Meanwhile, the estate, with its cavernous boot, could be ideal for families who desire a premium load-lugger but don’t want an SUV.
