Volkswagen Touareg 3.0 TDI (2012) long-term test review

Volkswagen Touareg 3.0 TDI (2012) long-term test review

Rated 3 out of 53

the CAR road test team, 22 May 2012 09:22

Is our VW Touareg 3.0 TDI good value? 22 May 2012 In another life, Rory Lumsden, VW’s PR manager was a magazine sub editor tasked with polishing my road test words when we both worked at Autocar. Seems like old habits die hard, because after I’d mentioned the price difference between my V6 Touareg and our European ed, Georg Kacher’s, ...

Range Rover Evoque (2012) long-term test review

Range Rover Evoque (2012) long-term test review

Rated 3 out of 53

the CAR road test team, 27 April 2012 09:50

Musings on the Evoque’s chassis on a London dash – 27 April 2011 I turned yesterday’s 75-minute commute into a three-and-a-half hour odyssey, by taking the Evoque into London on a CAR-related errand. Our mission was to drop off numerous back issues at a photographer’s studio, standing in the shadows of Arsenal’s Emirates stadium. The capital is the fashionable Evoque’s ...

Our Kia Sportage arrives – 20 April 2012 The Sportage arrived the other day and it doesn’t look as though I’ll be needing a course of therapy after all. After a couple of drives and a good poke around my new accommodation I don’t think the switch from Cayman to 4x4 is going to be as bad as I thought. Not because ...

Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE long-term test review

Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE long-term test review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

the CAR road test team, 13 August 2010 09:38

Long-term update - 13 August 2010 If you’ve been reading the magazine updates, you’ll know that we’ve had a few electrical problems with the Range Sport: going in to limp home mode, telling me the gearbox was broken, electric windows going a bit haywire to name but a few. It turned out that Land Rover had issued a recall to fix various ...

Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi long-term test review

Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi long-term test review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

the CAR road test team, 14 May 2009 15:07

Long-term test update - 14 May 2009 Much of the pleasure taken from life with our long-term Ford Kuga has centred around its chassis and its steering. Both owe more to the brilliant Focus than Andrew Ridgeley owes to George Michael (ie, everything), and together they achieve the remarkable feat of making an SUV handle like a real car. Other SUVs ...

Audi Allroad 3.0 TDI long-term test review

Audi Allroad 3.0 TDI long-term test review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

the CAR road test team, 29 December 2008 09:30

Long term update - 29 December 2008 Yes, it really did fit. Even I was amazed when the Allroad swallowed the 6ft fridge freezer I’d bought second-hand when we moved house recently, saving me the hassle and expense of hiring a van. I wondered if the sloping rear window might cause trouble but all I needed to do was jiggle the front ...

Land Rover Defender 110XS long-term test review

Land Rover Defender 110XS long-term test review

Rated 3 out of 53

the CAR road test team, 01 July 2008 10:00

Long-term test goodbye - 1 July 2008 This test was all about finding out if the new, updated Defender could cut it as a genuine family 4x4, and take on the new breed of 7-seater SUVs. On paper it’s got everything – great styling (ok, not exactly styling, but does anyone NOT think this is a handsome car?); it’s got three rows ...

Nissan Qashqai 2.0 dCi Acenta long-term test review

Nissan Qashqai 2.0 dCi Acenta long-term test review

Rated 3 out of 53

the CAR road test team, 16 May 2008 12:00

Long-term test update - 16 May 2008 Borrowed the Qashqai from my colleagues over at CAR for a few nights. Its custodian was running a little experiment and seeing how long he could go between refills. I drove the Qashqai until there was one block left on the fuel gauge. By this point the on-board computer showing range left had given ...

Volvo XC70 D5 SE Lux long-term test review

Volvo XC70 D5 SE Lux long-term test review

Rated 4 out of 54

the CAR road test team, 06 May 2008 11:00

Final report - 6 May 2008. Let’s get the (very few) bad bits out the way first. With an 28mpg average, fuel economy was mediocre and no more. And the digital compass in the rearview mirror was too bright at night. Apart from these two problems, my long term Volvo XC70 verged on the genius. There. I’ve said it.I never thought ...

Jeep Cherokee Limited 2.8D (2007) CAR review

Jeep Cherokee Limited 2.8D (2007) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

the CAR road test team, 04 December 2007 14:15

What, another new Jeep? Yup. Sitting alongside Wrangler, Patriot, Compass, Grand Cherokee and Commander there’s now the all-new Cherokee. It fits into the range between Patriot/Compass and Grand Cherokee and is built on a two-inch shorter version of the base that underpins the Dodge Nitro… but don’t let that put you off. Jeep is targeting Land Rover Freelander buyers with ...
