Cadillac BLS Estate
What Car? rating - 3 out of 5
FOR  The BLS Wagon is attractively priced, well equipped and reasonably practical. It’s available with strong and refined diesel engines, too
AGAINST  A choppy ride and numb steering mean the BLS isn't as engaging or relaxing as most rivals. Residual values are weak
