Should I buy a Audi Q3 or Mazda CX-5 for my retirement?
Answered by Paul Gover · 08 Jun 2015

You should never just buy a badge. The CX-5 is a better car, and considerably better value, than the Audi Q3. It's best in the class, gets The Tick from me, and is far better value than many prestige SUVs.

Should I buy a Mazda CX-5 or Audi Q3?
Answered by Paul Gover · 27 Apr 2015

I am not a great fan of the Q3. The CX-5 gets The Tick and has also just had a slight update with several improvements. The Mazda is also bigger and cheaper, which makes it a no-brainer for me.

Towing capacity of Audi Q3?
Answered by Carsguide.com.au · 06 Apr 2015

Audi spokesman Shaun Cleary says the ball weight for the Q3 is much lower than either the Q5 or Q7 as it's not designed in Europe for towing. Sorry.

Best four-door SUV?
Answered by Paul Gover · 01 Jun 2015

In that size and price class, I'd go for a Mazda CX-5. It gets The Tick from me, you can get front-wheel drive variants and there are ample choices on equipment.
