Help! Which car?

Hi all.

I'm looking to upgrade my car. I do long, infrequent journeys. 200 miles+
I don't want less than a 2lt engine as I need the power for motorways and overtaking slow drivers (before anyone starts, I'm not a speeder. Just can't stand pootling along when I have a 300mile+journey ahead of me.)

Most important things are good on fuel, enough power for motorways and overtaking and comfortable to drive and sit in, easy to park.

I like the look of the Audi q2, BMW x1, Volvo x40 and VW t-roc or VW Tiguan.

Any reviews/advice on any of these?
Mpg is the most important. Followed by nippy enough engine. Then comfortable drive/ride.

I have an audi a1 and am bit worried about anything too big to upgrade to but the a1 is definitely too small.

Thanks all :)

Ps. I hope this is the right section to post this in 🙈

I’m currently looking at the exact same cars and been searching for any threads on them! Can I ask which you went for and how you’ve found it?

I still haven't chosen one 🙈

One like mine? Plenty of power. Bomb proof.😁

Series 2 @Darklane ?

OP, even the cars with smaller engines are able to pull well. I have 1.6 diesel and it’s really good. Much better fuel economy than the same make/model 2 years older. I make roughly 40miles journeys regularly.
