Cars I 69


LAND ROVER DISCOVERY PRICE: from US$56,000 More than 1.2 million sales and 28 years after it first arrived, it’s fair to say that the Land Rover Discovery is popular. The squared- off looks have been toned down and the split tailgate has gone, but there’s still plenty of appeal in this fifth-generation Discovery. Not only has it gone on a much-needed diet, but it’s more practical than ever, with the traditional seven seats, plus nine USB sockets (no more arguments about which of your offspring’s tablets to charge first), a waterproof key and the ability to reverse it at low speed while being towed from outside the car. Expect to see more than one or two on the school run.


FORD FIESTA PRICE: from US$13,660 With more than 4.3 million sales and 41 years at the top of the UK’s sales charts, the Fiesta is well and truly Britain’s favourite car. However, blink and you’ll think you might have missed the changes to the seventh- generation model. The design might be more of an evolution than revolution, but inside is the latest in-car touchscreen tech and more frugal, cleaner engines. There’s a wider choice of models, too. There will now be four versions of the Fiesta with a luxurious Vignale, sporty ST-Line (as well as the pocket rocket ST coming in 2018), the standard Titanium and a new crossover model called the Active. Don’t expect many fireworks, but don’t expect it to lose that sales top spot any time soon either.
