Price Range: £17,815 to £25,455
Good value for money, large and reasonably roomy, well-equipped; doesn't pretend to be a proper off-roader.
Bouncy, wallowy ride; less-than-sharp handling; gutless petrol engine.
Cheap and cheerful, but has no unique selling point, nor any reason to choose it over its similarly cut-price Korean rivals. Feels dated already.
Cheap to buy, and after all, how much value can you lose from a low starting point? A Captiva costs less than one year's depreciation of a Range Rover, Cayenne or similar. That said, don't expect too much cash back on your investment after a typical three-year ownership period. Low-mileage, ex-demo and pre-registered Captivas are already coming onto the market at useful savings.
