Nissan Qashqai: the latest million seller versus the first

4.5

James Foxall, 09 August 2011 11:29

Rather like female Formula One drivers, the club of million-selling motors designed and built in Britain is neither fast nor pretty – but definitely exclusive. And with production of the Nissan Qashqai slipping into seven figures the fellowship has just initiated a new member. Remarkably, (and conveniently for us) Nissan has managed this feat exactly half a century after this ...

Anthony ffrench-Constant: a Micra name change

2.5

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 23 March 2011 10:45

Jif to Cif… Marathon to Snickers… Opal Fruits to Starburst… Ulay to Olay… And, boasting such an wholly absurd name that I have absolutely no idea what it might once have been called or, indeed, what the hell it does anyway; Cillit Bang (the missus tells me it’s a grooming product for tidying the nether regions of those toy dogs ...

How to launch a Nissan Cube

Ben Pulman, 08 November 2010 11:35

In page 144 of the current November 2010 issue of CAR, you may have noticed two rather amazing shots of our long-term Nissan Cube. One is of the Cube in mid-air, all four wheels hanging slack as Jethro Bovingdon takes to the skies in our little white box. And the second, wince-inducing image, is of our Cube coming back down ...

Nissan Juke (2010): video at the Get Carter car park

2.5

Tim Pollard, 02 August 2010 10:28

In the latest August 2010 issue of CAR Magazine we exclusively shot the new Nissan Juke at the iconic Brutalist car park that starred in 60s gangster Britflick Get Carter. Below's some video shot on the day.You can read our six-page feature in the new August issue; we tested the new 1.6 turbo 4wd version, as well as the diesel ...

Racing in a Nissan 370Z: Jethro Bovingdon's race report

Jethro Bovingdon, 08 June 2010 21:45

Racing always seems like a great idea when you agree to it. Seems like a great idea when you arrive at a paddock buzzing with activity and excitement, too. But later there will be lonely moments when you wonder quite why you agreed to strap yourself into an uncomfortable and unfamiliar car and try to drive it faster than all ...

Japan’s nutter gene: tuning, drifting and speeding

3.5

Ben Barry, 18 August 2009 10:15

Ten years ago I got my first job on a motoring title: Max Power. Max had become the biggest car magazine in the UK after stumbling on a surprising formula: young guys like fast, lairy cars and fast, lairy women. At the millennium, Japanese cars and Max Power went hand-in-hand, and the period – flinchingly embarrassing as it can sometimes ...

Lapping the Nurburgring at 100mph in the fog

2.5

Ben Barry, 20 May 2009 14:41

A little background to CAR Magazine's new cover story. We’d got the new GT3, sorted the Nissan GT-R, booked an exclusive session at the Nürburgring’s Nordschleife circuit. Yet there was one major component missing from our test: a driver. This posed a fairly major problem, as simply having a good driver wasn’t enough. We needed somebody who knew intimately every ...

A week in the life of a Nissan GT-R

Ben Barry, 20 May 2009 14:35

I’ve been lucky enough to follow the GT-R story pretty closely over the past two years. I got an early passenger ride in summer 2007 at Nissan’s highly secretive test circuit in Hokkaido, Japan; conducted the first independently timed laps in the UK with a private import (I drove the GT-R around Rockingham one second faster than the 911 Turbo. ...

Video: swimsuit models sideways in 370Zs

3.5

Ben Barry, 27 February 2009 16:40

Here's a little fun for you on a Friday. What do you get if you mix three swimsuit models, three Nissan 370Zs and six smoking tyres? This highly bizarre video, as it turns out. Shot to promote the annual swimsuit-fest in Sports Illustrated magazine, it features said ladies being driven very sideways by a trio of 370Zs in a sequence ...

CAR drives a Nissan GT-R up the hill at Goodwood

3.5

Ben Barry, 11 July 2008 15:19

‘Okay, light them up!’ Queue to drive up the famous Goodwood hill at the Festival of Speed and, just before the start line, you’ll find yourself in the tyre-warming area. Great if you’re in a rear-wheel drive car. Not so great if you’re in the four-wheel drive Nissan GT-R. The marshall clearly doesn’t understand and clearly thinks I’m a pussy ...
