Buying a car can be one of the biggest purchases you can make - it can be hard to decide what type, colour and size to go for and also what fits your budget.

Why not think about going for something different? A model that stands out from the crowd - like the new cars on the block from Infiniti.

It’s the newest brand to compete with premium companies like BMW, Mercedes and Lexus and is the luxury vehicle division of the Japanese car maker Nissan.

Here’s some of the models you can find on sale in Kent:

The Q30 combines the sportiness of a coupe and the empowered stance of a crossover.

You can refine the Q30 to reflect your personality by choosing from three designer colour combinations.

Relax and let the Q30 make your life easier.

• Connect with technology. After you connect your compatible smartphone, Infiniti intouch allows you to read email or text, listen to your playlist, navigate unfamiliar streets or call your friends. It also allows you to sync to a selection of apps from your phone to the car.

• Using a combination of 12 sensors, it not only parks itself, it makes sure it does it safely. This system will determine if the parking area is large enough and by simply pressing a button to confirm and operating the accelerator and brake pedals, it parks itself in parallel or reversing-in parking spots. It also has a blind spot warning system.

The QX30 is the latest model in the range and comes in nine colours.

• With vehicle dynamic control it compares the vehicle cornering to the driver's input. If the system senses over-steer or under-steer it adjusts engine power and applies appropriate braking to help correct the problem.

• Traffic sign recognition uses a camera to watch for posted speed limits and gives you a reminder in the instrument panel.
• It’s innovative technology will alert if you get too close to the vehicle in front and even lifts the accelerator and applies the brakes for you.

The QX70 model suits sportier drivers.

• Intelligent cruise control automatically slows you down when traffic in front of you slows and when the way is clear it accelerates back to your desired speed.

• Four wheel active steering engages each wheel as you steer. With an around view monitor it lets you see your surroundings when parking giving you an extraordinary level of awareness. It also has a monitor with moving object detection and front and rear parking sensors.

• With climate-controlled seats you’ll have greater comfort as it pushes cool or warm air through the front seats to keep you at your perfect temperature.
