Nissan Murano 2.5 D (2010) new CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Tim Pollard, 15 July 2010 13:44

Nissan's Murano lives in a bit of a time warp; it's only just got its first diesel engine. Yep, you read that right. This full-ish sized premium SUV has been operating in just 0.6% of the derv-crazy crossover segment with a spanking great big 3.5-litre petrol-slurper.Now the new 2.5-litre diesel has arrived, it's suddenly opened up 86% of the segment, ...

Saab 9-5 2.0 TiD 158bhp (2010) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Tim Pollard, 03 June 2010 09:41

It's been a long time coming. Thirteen years in fact. But at last Saab has launched a new 9-5 and we've finally tested it, here in entry-level 2.0-litre turbodiesel spec. A brace of TDs will be available in the new 9-5, sharing the same four-cylinder block but with single or twin turbocharging to crank out their 158bhp or 187bhp outputs. ...

Mercedes S350 CDI BlueEfficiency LWB (2010) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Anonymous, 30 April 2010 10:39

Visually, there's little to pinpoint the 2009 facelift of the S-class; a more arrow-shaped radiator grille here, a fresh bumper and exhausts there. But myriad changes were ushered in under the skin, with many of Merc's technical innovations from its new models such as the E-class cascading upwards. It's normally the reverse in Stuttgart. This S350 CDI variant is new, ...

Alfa Romeo Mito 1.3 JTD Veloce (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Tim Pollard, 29 April 2010 10:56

The Alfa Romeo Mito has got under the skin of us here at CAR. We're starting to see them on the road in some numbers – helped no doubt by the smashing £8995 scrappage deal under recent Government incentives – and to these eyes it's the best looking supermini by miles. It's arguably the first car to dislodge the Mini ...

Hyundai ix35 2.0 CRDi (2010) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 28 April 2010 09:00

This is the new Hyundai ix35, the Korean company’s replacement for the frankly forgettable Tucson. But Hyundai is on a roll at the moment, having notched up some huge sales increase during the scrappage scheme, and keep those showroom figures high with their own incentives. In short, the brand is now on the general public’s radar, and offerings like the ...

Dacia Duster 1.5 dCi 2wd (2010) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Tim Pollard, 26 April 2010 16:04

Renault's budget brand Dacia had planned to launch in the UK in 2010, but the bank-fuelled recession soon put paid to that. Now Dacia is coming to Britain in autumn 2012 and this'll be the first model: the Duster faux-by-four. CAR's been out to test the new Duster in Morocco, read on for our first drive review. The new Dacia Duster: ...

BMW 530d SE (2010) new CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 26 March 2010 12:27

As benchmarks for the new BMW 5-series saloon go, the last-generation E60 530d takes some beating – fast, refined, dynamically capable, comfortable and incredibly durable. And, despite early controversy, its ‘flame surfaced’ body still looks fresh these days. It must be quite an intimidating act to follow, then, not only for its competitors, but also for its successor: the F10-generation ...

Mercedes E250 CDI Cabriolet (2010) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Barry, 22 March 2010 12:13

All is not what it seems in Mercville these days. Take the new E-class Coupé and Cabriolet twins. They wear the proud E-class badge, yet strip away the verisimilitude and you'll spot the guts and garters from the C-class and E-class parts cupboards. But those looks are 100% new E, and we'd have to admit the new E-class convertible is ...

Peugeot RCZ 2.0 HDI 163 (2010) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Jethro Bovingdon, 15 March 2010 21:01

This is the new Peugeot RCZ coupé, a car with a huge weight of expectation on its incredibly broad shoulders. It is – yet again – an opportunity for Peugeot to get back to the sort of chassis dynamism that stole our hearts back in the ‘80s and early ‘90s with a string of seminal GTI hits including go-faster versions ...

Citroën C6 3.0 HDI Exclusive (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Tim Pollard, 11 March 2010 11:03

The Citroën C6 has always intrigued us at CAR. We're the sort to see merit in unusual choices and in the C6 we see character in spades. You have to look past numerous shortcomings – and there are plenty – but its very idiosyncrasy, the sense of other, is what makes it stand out in our view.Not many Brits are ...
