What do we think of the changes?

well...
it looks good,but i am not sure about the front, it looks a bit to stubby, not streamlined if you know what i mean, also the front spoiler is very low, so that will reduce ground clearance and be cracked by many a kerb, whence parking it!!.. ( or is that just me!! )

I like the new grill, but agree on the ground clearance. In last years snow the front skid plate was very important as it helped the car ride the drifts rather than digging in.

Wonder if they have managed to improve the MPG?

Nice, but a facelift rather than the "all new Captiva"....


Mind you, the 2.2TD, is that going to improve the mpg or make it worse

I suspect it's the same 2.2 in the Hyundai Santa fe, which is a great engine, very torquey and relatively frugal for the power output, made by VM as well. Better CO numbers as well.
