I wouldnt want to drive all the way from t'North to Spain in a Duster.

Nah. I’ll be going on a luxury cruise to Santander from PottyMouth.
My short list was Toyota Rav4, Corolla or old model Mazda3 with the 2.2 diesel. Then my walking pals who live off the beaten track in Espana suggested a Duster. It had previously piqued my interest.
A late model one has Apple Car Play, which for me is an excellent option ( helps me find remote fincas where my campo living friends are, and obscure walk start points, by putting in multi digit coordinates). The others mentioned don’t have this, apart from more recent, and far more expensive, models.
And the Duster has decent visibility....talking of which, most road testers of the GRY mention this. It’s the only negative thing I can say about it. The viz between the top of the touch screen and the large rear view mirror is verging on minimal. Bad enough in the U.K. where you get used to wobbling your head about at junctions....a RHD GRY on the continent would be far far worse.
