Mercedes SLK200 Edition 10 (2007) CAR review

2.5

Chris Chilton, 05 March 2007 03:46

So what's Mercedes come up with to mark the SLK's first decade? The SLK Edition 10, a special version of the roadster with some very special paint. No different mechanically from the existing production cars, the Edition 10 is distinguished by 10-spoke, 17-inch wheels finished in chrome-shadow, and dark tinted rear lights. Most Edition 10s will come finished in black ...

BMW 530i (2007) CAR review

2.5

Chris Chilton, 02 March 2007 01:23

Er, help me out, I’ve been staring at the picture, pen poised, for 20 minutes and I haven’t ringed a single difference See that big air intake under the bumper? See how the ends point upwards instead of down? And see that that horizontal chrome bar running between the two foglights? What are you, blind? How could you possibly miss ...

Citroen C4 'By Loeb' (2007) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 28 February 2007 12:50

Calling it C4 'by Loeb' makes it sounds like some sort of perfume. What's it for and did the world's greatest rally driver really have anything to do with it? The C4 by Loeb (wouldn't 'Loeb edition' have sounded much less pretentious?) is a limited-edition C4 built to honour Sebastian Loeb's achievements in world rallying and Citröen's return to the ...

BMW 120i (2007) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 28 February 2007 09:09

It’s a 1-series with two fewer doors Well spotted. Two years after we first got our hands on the original five-door 1-series, BMW has given us the sportier (if only psychologically) three-door. Wheelbase, length and interior space all remain the same, but this new derivative, introduced together with a facelifted five-door, should appeal to a younger market. BMW expects to ...

Hyundai Coupe facelift 2.7 (2007) V6 CAR review

Chris Chilton, 19 February 2007 09:42

Doesn't look too bad. Someone said Hyundai Coupe facelift and all I could think of was that mess they made of the original Coupe seven years ago... We're equally relieved. This Coupe still looks pretty handsome overall - some even noted the resemblance to Ferrari's 456 when it was launched. And there's a good reason why Hyundai kept its designers ...

BMW 335i (2007) Convertible CAR review

Chris Chilton, 24 January 2007 09:50

That can’t be a coupe-cabrio! Where’s the huge backside, the stupid wedgy profile and enormously overlong windscreen? It certainly is a CC - BMW’s first ever in fact – although you’re right, it doesn’t look anywhere near as frumpy as a Peugeot 307 CC or Focus CC. How has BMW managed that? The steel top folds into three sections (two ...

VW Golf GTi Edition 30 (2006) CAR review

2.5

Chris Chilton, 22 December 2006 11:10

Has it really been 30 years since the original hot Golf first arrived? Actually the first 1.6-litre four-speed GTi went on sale in Germany in 1976 so the German market got its hands on this anniversary model last year. But Brits had to wait until 1977 for the first imports and even they were left hookers – right-hand drive didn’t ...

Subaru B9 Tribeca 3.0 (2006) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 15 December 2006 02:30

Is this the ugliest car on sale? I like a man who gets straight to the point. The Tribeca’s certainly an acquired taste - it’s difficult to look at either end without wanting to vomit. But at least it’s distinctive, and viewed in profile it’s actually fairly handsome. But yes, this does look like a car that’s got some chromosomal ...

Honda Legend 3.5i (2006) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 08 December 2006 08:30

Legend? Quite an appropriate name. I don’t think I’ve seen one in the metal since 1989 In fact it was only a couple of years ago that the last Legend disappeared from Car’s GBU although truth be told we were umming and aahhing about removing it for a while as sightings were so rare that its existence seemed to be ...

Daihatsu Terios (2006) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 27 November 2006 10:49

You're a bit slow off the mark aren't you? This thing's been on sale for months. Yes, well, we've put off driving it for as long as humanly possible. Memories of the old car you see; some of us are still receiving treatment. Horrid little box. So the old Terios was a bit of a duffer, but that doesn't mean ...
