Volkswagen's new T-Cross is a spacious gem and is "quite the practical thing all-round"

If we were a little underwhelmed when we first tried out the Volkswagen T-Cross – the words ‘another small SUV; nothing special’ come to mind from the review of the car – we were given another opportunity by VW to redeem our indifference when they subsequently sent us the R-Line version of the car.
Like most T-Cross models, this one also came with a take-the-eye-out-of-your-head colour scheme (Makena Turquoise, in this case), but as the range-topper, the R-Line version we tried this time around also came with a bunch of added kit which made it a whole lot more appealing, if not also considerably more extensive than the ‘Style’ version we previously tested.
