Every 5-star car on What Car?: practical cars
From nimble hatchbacks to stylish SUVs, and exciting sports cars to practical estates – this is where you'll find every model that has earned our highest road test rating...
Just because you're wearing your sensible trousers when buying a new MPV, it doesn’t mean you have to slum it. Opt for a Volkswagen Touran and you’ll find the same level of plushness that you’d get in a Golf, but with far greater practicality. All five of its rear seats feature Isofix child seat mounting points and enough space for adults. And the Touran even drives well.

Estate cars
BMW 5 Series Touring
The latest 5 Series Touring is BMW at the top of its game. This is a hugely appealing luxury estate car because it's comfortable, quiet and enjoyable to drive, with an interior that's as classy as it is practical. Plus, standard self-levelling suspension helps it cope with the heftiest of loads.

Skoda Octavia Estate
Considering its size, there's very little else which can match the Skoda Octavia Estate for sheer carrying capacity, but there's more to this family estate than just space.

Pick-ups
Ford Ranger
The Ranger is our reigning champion in the pick-up truck market, because it rides well, has a gutsy range of engines and is competitively priced too. It can put in a hard shift all day, and then be comfy enough to use as family transport in the evening. As an all-rounder, it's hard to beat.
