18 months of happy ownership, but already thinking about what to replace it with in 18 months time

Favourite is another one, as long as FY19 brings something exciting

As the Sport Nav spec with Auto is now a must for us now, there is not a lot of choice out there

CVT rules out C-HR and HRV, price scuppers VAG

What else is out there?

Why replace it?

For more cost effective to keep it.

My thoughts exactly. Just extend the warranty.

Extending the warranty to cover the air con would be a must !!!

There are very few smallish cars with proper torque convertor gearboxes. PSA have one called EAT6 and a Peugeot 2008 SUV or Citroen C4 Picasso are two models that can be got with one.

There’s also the Hyundai Kona which is worth a look

Yes the Air Con is a worry, mine has been ok (touch wood) would have to check if an extended Warranty will cover it as I see it’s a third party one

Any air con repair will still be less then the depreciation on a new car.

You get a lot more for your money with a CX-5.

I'm seriously considering the CX-5 when it comes time to replace.

I agree, but I don’t want an oil burner!

Specifying Auto really narrows down choice, probably won’t be changing at 3 years unless there’s a tempting CX 3 update
