Mazda MX-5 2.0 RC long-term test review

3.5

the CAR road test team, 10 November 2010 10:00

Mazda MX-5 long-term test goodbye – 10 November 2010 Yes, I know that this is probably the longest gap between penultimate and final long-term reports, but believe me, it’s been worth the wait. We’ve always loved the MX-5 for its dynamic brilliance, its affordability and its clockwork reliability. It’s a giant-slayer, capable of putting a lot of faster and more ...

Nissan 370Z Roadster (2010) long-term test

2.5

Phil McNamara, 14 October 2010 09:08

Why the 370Z needs to be driven hard – 14 October 2010 With 326bhp available under your right plimsoll, the Z roadster is hardly a car for the meek and mild. But if you were ever in any doubt, the short throw, notchy gearbox screams at you to treat it keenly. After five minutes driving it, the Roadster made a ...

Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE long-term test review

2.5

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 ...

Toyota Prius long-term test review (2010)

2.5

the CAR road test team, 23 July 2010 08:58

Long-term test update – 23 July 2010 Breaking news: just filled the Prius after my best-possible-behaviour tankful of obeying all speed limits and using minimal throttle openings during a mix of mainly motorway and rural A-road driving, with a smattering of urban pottering. Result? 56.34mpg. Somewhat better than my normal low 40s mpg, still someway off the claimed 70mpg. I also got ...

Citroen C3 1.6 HDI Exclusive long-term test review

2.5

the CAR road test team, 21 July 2010 09:26

21 July 2010 – The Citroën C3 Your friendly Citroën dealer will tell you all about the amazing ‘rollover’ windscreen on the C3. It’s a truly epic bit of recalibration of the glass/bodywork relationship, bringing a whole lot more sunshine into your life. All you have to do is manually retract the front bit of the rooflining and hey presto, ...

VW Scirocco 2.0 TSI (2010) CAR long-term test

2.5

The CAR team, 10 May 2010 09:54

Long-term test review - 10 May 2010 Had the editor’s VW Scirocco at the weekend and came away mightily impressed. It’s not a car I would buy – space is at a premium and that kiwi fruit green paint job and black wheels are too look-at-me – but if I were in the market for a two-door coupe, the Scirocco ...

Citroën C3 Picasso 1.6 HDI long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 15 March 2010 10:01

Final report, 15 March 2010 Our six months or so with the C3 Picasso have rushed past and it's off back to Citroën HQ. I think this car has served as a good reminder for what the long-term test is all about. I'm sure plenty of you think there's a mad scramble for the Ferrari keys when the latest supercar ...

BMW 730d long-term test review

2.5

Greg Fountain, 29 December 2009 21:03

Long-term test update – 29 December 2009 If you look it up, you’ll see the retail price for our long-wheelbase long-term BMW 730d is £56,790 – amazingly good value for such a superior car. The price list doesn’t exactly lie, but it’s not the whole truth either, as we found when we came to spec the car with ‘essential’ extras. Dynamic ...

Lexus IS-F saloon long-term test review

3.5

the CAR road test team, 24 December 2009 10:00

Long-term test goodbye – 24 December 2009 I’m afraid I’ve been a bit lax with the Lex, or at least in telling you about it. The IS-F actually disappeared from the CAR car park in the autumn, since when I’ve been taking things at a somewhat more leisurely pace. After 12 months and 22,000 miles at the wheel of a ...

VW Golf long-term test review

2.5

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 ...
