I was dealt with by a chap called Lee regarding my lease of a Skoda Octavia. A most helpful man who made ordering the car a pleasure. He answered all my questions and explained how it would all happen. I would recommend anyone interested in going for this kind of lease plan to ask for Lee. 10/10

In case you didn’t know, DS is the luxury arm of Citroen (itself owned by Stellantis).
While several cars that wore the Citroen badge in the past included the name DS in their title, the habit of ‘spinning off’ these monikers into their own brand has now become commonplace.
DS is one of many examples – and it seems to have worked for Citroen so far.
Although some of DS’s range began life with Citroen badges, such as the DS 3, the DS 7 Crossback was a brand-new car that was first launched around six years ago.
It has recently had a facelift, and the ‘Crossback’ bit has been dropped from its name, so it’s just the plain old DS 7 nowadays.
But while it looks striking, can this mid-size SUV really compete with the likes of BMW and Audi?
