There’s a lot to like about the Seat Tarraco, namely that it’s one of the sportier seven-seaters, is generously equipped and has a very good safety rating. Some rivals have more third row and boot space though. If you do get a Tarraco, we recommend sticking with the cheapest 1.5 EcoTSI 150 petrol engine and the entry-level SE trim.

If you think you might need a bit more lugging ability – for a regularly brimmed car or to tow with – this 148bhp 2.0-litre diesel is a good shout. It isn't quite as quick as our favourite petrol flat out (0-62mph take 10.2sec) but it has more welly in the mid-range for pulling heavy loads more easily. And it's RDE2 compliant, so won't cost company car drivers the extra 4% (surcharge) in BIK tax.
