* Great value cars with four-wheel drive * Real-world examples * What Car?'s Approved Used scheme offers peace of mind...
This week we've driven the four-wheel-drive Skoda Superb Estate. It's a roomy and practical car that also gives you the added confidence of improved grip in winter weather. Prices start at about £27,000 for the 2.0 TDI 4x4 DSG Estate.
If you're not after a new car, there's a wide choice of used SUVs that will get you on the road this winter. Here's a selection that we found in our classifieds that cost less than £27k:
Land Rover Discovery 3.0 TDV6 XS
The Land Rover Discovery is one of our favourite SUVs. It offers seating for seven adults and genuine go-anywhere capability. This '10/10 XS model has a generous specification, averages 30.5mpg and has done 52,000 miles. It's on sale for £26,495.
Land Rover Range Rover Sport
Land Rover has just released a new Range Rover Sport. This previous-generation model from 2009 is in top-spec HSE trim and has done just 44,000 miles. It's stylish, good to drive and can be yours for £26,385.
Mercedes-Benz ML300 CDI
Mercedes' M-Class is particularly refined and comfortable for an SUV. The ML300 CDI averages 32.5mpg and emits 230g/km of CO2. This '10/10 car has 31,000 miles on the clock and is being advertised at £23,995.
Volkswagen Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI SE
