Thanks for that.
You've now got me looking at the Civic again, which I originally thought had too much of an advance payment.
I'll have to look at the Qashqai too.
I was originally looking at the sexy Tucson but am put off by mediocre economy.
Looked at the Volvo XC40 too but, good as it is, looks and feels like an old man's car.
Others I considered were the Kia Sportage and Hyundai Kona
The one I like, based on near perfect reviews, is the Volkswagen T-Roc. Even that is a problem as the full hybrids don't come out until last quarter this year.
