TEST BENCH
SEAT Altea Freetrack: the surprise is inside
Don't be misled by her lack of sex appeal - the Altea Freetrack is worth getting to know, thanks to her very dynamic handling, genuine four-wheel drive, and plenty of nifty standard equipment.
WHAT'S NEW

IN THE HEADLINES
Asturias: Spain like you've never imagined it!
Located on the Atlantic Coast, between Galicia and Cantabria, Asturias is a unique mix of verdant scenery, sandy beaches and high mountains. Still rather unknown, this province that looks like a Switzerland by the sea has escaped mass tourism development.
DESTINATION
A taste of Asturias
Between sea and mountain, Asturian gastronomy revives you with its freshness and authenticity.
WEEKEND IDEA
Lège-Cap-Ferret peninsula: a sweet taste of elsewhere!
Between the ocean and immense Pilat Dune, Cap Ferret stretches its narrow strip of sand for a dozen or so miles. Cycling in the pine forest, swimming, tasting oysters outdoors, discovering fishermen's villages vying in picturesqueness: Cap Ferret is a treasure that must be preserved at all costs!
