An electric Radical adventure – the photo outtakes

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Pulman, 18 March 2011 15:00

In the new April 2011 issue of CAR – out now – there are some great stories. Top of the list is an exclusive group test, as we pit the Porsche Cayman R against the Lotus Evora S, BMW M3 and Nissan GT-R. There’s another world exclusive, too: only CAR has had access to both Alfa and Saab’s stunning new ...

Why the Toyota Verso-S reminds us of... a Lambo

Rated 3 out of 53

Greg Fountain, 18 March 2011 09:30

Drove the Toyota Verso-S last night, and it set me on a strange thought process which led me all the way to… the Lamborghini Gallardo Balboni! Here’s why. There’s nothing actually wrong with the Verso-S, but it’s an instantly forgettable experience in every way. That’s no surprise – Toyota has gradually abandoned all attempts to be anything other than a ...

Why I love the looks of the new Ferrari FF

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 21 January 2011 11:00

The CAR office doesn’t pore over the pictures of every new vehicle that is sent to us, but when it’s a brand new Ferrari – and a Ferrari that’s rumoured to be an estate – people jump from their desks and jostle for the best position around the requisite computer. Having looked at the pictures with the rest of the ...

Aston Martin V12 Vantage vs DBR1-2

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Pulman, 23 December 2010 11:10

Not it’s not news, but it is a lovely video of Aston Martin’s storming V12 Vantage and the company’s about-to-be-retired DBR1-2 Le Mans racer. Both cars feature Aston’s V12 engine, and in the V12 Vantage the big 6.0-litre lump produces 510bhp and 420lb ft; Aston won’t release exact figures for the race car, but even with race-spec restrictors it’ll still ...

Porsche 911 GT2 RS: scariest car at PCOTY

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 22 December 2010 09:00

There were lots of questions in my head before we left Dover for the south of France and Performance Car Of The Year 2010, but one was easy: scariest car? The Porsche 911 GT2RS. I reckon you’ll either know exactly what this car is, or you’ll have all the GT and RS cars jumbled together in your brain and won’t ...

When F1 drivers met the Ferrari rollercoaster (2010)

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Sarah-Jayne Harrison, 11 May 2010 15:55

The weekend's Spanish grand prix 2010 was a rollercoaster race for Ferrari – off the track more than on it. Maranello chose Barcelona to announce the opening date for the new Ferrari World joyride being built at the new complex in Abu Dhabi: doors open to (probably highly) paying customers on 28 October 2010. Felipe Massa, Stefano Domenicali and Fernando ...

Remote Controlled Lego Bugatti Veyron with a working seven-speed gearbox

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Sarah-Jayne Harrison, 06 May 2010 11:44

It’s no secret in the CAR office that the Bugatti Veyron (actually the Sang Noir 16.4) is my favourite car. And now they’ve made one I can afford. A besotted Lego fan has produced a prototype remote control Veyron kit, emulating the engineering genius, styling and gadgetry of the 1:1 real Bug.  It’s said to be the first Lego remote ...

How to take the perfect oversteer photograph

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Tim Pollard, 16 April 2010 15:28

Poring over the photos from our May 2010 cover shoot, we were struck by a sequence of frames showing ace photographer Paul Barshon at work. We'd gathered together eight of the greatest Quattros ever conceived by Audi to celebrate 30 years of fast four-wheel drives and writer Jethro Bovingdon was out to prove a point. Namely that Quattros will drift. ...
