VW Golf long-term test review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Andrew Franklin, 21 December 2009 11:47

Long term update - 29 December 2008 We get a lot of readers asking what cars we own ourselves and although I'm lucky that even being just the Art director I get a good chance to drive lots of cars. But I live in the real world and actually do own a vehicle. Its a VW golf 1.9 td (1998), oh and ...

Peugeot 4007 DCS (2009) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Glen Waddington, 08 December 2009 09:56

Peugeot 4007? Hmm. What’s new that we can tell you about that? It’s still a renosed, rebadged Mitsubishi Outlander, it still has a Citroën C-Crosser sibling, and it’s still pretty decent if rather pricey and lightweight. Only now you can mix Mitsubishi’s dual-clutch six-speed transmission with PSA’s 2.2-litre HDi turbodiesel. A fine pairing? Let’s find out. Mitsubishi? Dual-clutch? Must be ...

Chevrolet Spark 1.2 LS (2009) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Adam Towler, 27 November 2009 21:37

This is the Chevy Spark, the replacement for the Matiz supermini and the first car to use GM’s new small car platform, designed by GM-DAT in South Korea. Was this the car that had its design chosen in an online competition? Yes, that’s the one. Out of three proposals shown at the New York Motor Show in 2007, this design ...

Infiniti G37 Convertible (2009) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Greg Fountain, 27 November 2009 11:07

When you clear away the caveats, the G37 convertible is an expensive 3-series cabrio rival made in Japan. And for all the smoke and mirrors deployed by Nissan in the cause of inventing an upmarket brand for Europe with ambitions of Rolls-like exclusivity, it can only be judged against what’s out there. And what’s out there is the 3-series chop-top.  ...

Mercedes E-class coupe (2009): CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Georg Kacher, 31 October 2009 10:00

Take a look at this new Mercedes E-class coupe. While it’s called the E-class coupe, and looks very much like an E-class, it actually sits on a C-class chassis. There’s a choice of four engines, two diesel and two petrol. For diesel power, there’s a V6 powerplant, and the smaller 2143cc unit. Alternatively there’s a petrol V6 and V8 too. ...

Porsche Cayenne D Techart Tech9 CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Barry, 24 August 2009 12:30

We’ve been ever-so-slightly underwhelmed by Porsche’s first diesel car, the Cayenne V6 diesel. With 3.0-litres, 237bhp and 405lb ft, its performance just doesn’t sparkle like a Porsche ­– even a diesel Porsche – should, and it looks a little dull too. Seems that Porsche tuners Techart feel the same way, and the firm is now offering a range of upgrades through UK ...

Land Rover Discovery 4 TDV6 HSE (2010) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Glen Waddington, 11 August 2009 09:30

No, it’s not some blinged-up Chelsea tractor. Land Rover has treated the Discovery 4 (as it’s now called) to lots of body-coloured finishes where plain black once ruled, plus a restyled nose, twin wing vents and some cool LED lights front and rear. Doesn’t sound like much, considering Land Rover deems it worthy of a new suffix. But there’s more ...

Mini First (2009) hatchback CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Barry, 10 August 2009 14:15

Hip, urban young things take the fun Fiat 500 very seriously, and now, it seems, so does Mini – with the launch of the new entry-level First, the company is targeting the slinky Italian directly. Where does this new Mini One slot into the range? The First usurps the Mini One’s entry-level slot, undercutting that car’s £12,345 price tag by almost £1500. At £10,950, it ...

Range Rover Sport TDV6 (2010) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 07 August 2009 00:00

Land Rover has revised its most road-focussed SUV ever, the Range Rover Sport. There’s now new petrol and diesel engines (shared with the new Discovery 4, XF and XJ), a thoroughly revised interior, and a more modern exterior to match the look of the recently facelifted Range Rover proper. Read on to find out exactly how the new £50,695 2010 ...

Renault Scenic 1.5 dCi (2009) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Stephen Worthy, 02 July 2009 10:58

Think ‘Renault Scenic’ today and what does it conjure up? Mum stuck in traffic on the school run. Jammy-fingered kids staring wistfully out of the window. Dad pootling down to the seaside with the whole clan seething inside it. There are so many cars like the Scenic on the road today, it’s easy to forget how radical it was when ...
