Fiat Bravo 1.4 T-Jet 150 (2007) CAR review

Fiat Bravo 1.4 T-Jet 150 (2007) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

A Fiat family hatchback...that actually looks good. What's going on? Yes, Fiat is in the midst of a resurgence, what with the very pleasant Grande Punto, the cheery Panda and the soon-to-be-a-legend 500 winning fans all over, so we were looking forward to seeing if the new Bravo would follow suit. And when we drove a couple of the diesels ...

Daihatsu Materia (2007) CAR review

Daihatsu Materia (2007) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

This looks like a Japanese-market mini or a US Scion... Bingo! That's exactly what the Materia is. It's sold in Japan as both a Toyota and Daihatsu, and it's not even new to mainland Europe, where it's been sold for a while. But the UK importer has finally seen fit to bring the distinctively boxy mini over here to take ...

Fisker Tramonto (2007) CAR review

Fisker Tramonto (2007) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

What’s this, a secret new Aston? No, but it’s not a bad guess. This is, in fact, a high-quality makeover based on the Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG. Make that high-quality and expensive, because once you’ve forked out £100k for the base car, you’ll have to hand over a further $140,000 to get it looking like this. The result is the Fisker ...

Renault Twingo GT 1.2 TCE (2007) CAR review

Renault Twingo GT 1.2 TCE (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ged Maxwell, 08 August 2007 04:04

A small car from Renault... you mean smaller than the Clio and Modus? Yes, that'll be the Twingo. Don't let the chunky looks fool you – this is very definitely pitched below the Clio in size and price, with a kick-off price tag below £8500. It'll only ever be a three-door model, and Renault is aiming it squarely at young, ...

Ford C-Max H2 ICE (2007) CAR review

Ford C-Max H2 ICE (2007) CAR review

Rated 1 out of 51

Ben Oliver, 03 August 2007 09:45

Another hydrogen-powered Focus – what’s the difference between this and the FCV? The H2 ICE stands for hydrogen internal combustion engine. It has the kind of engine you’d recognize - Ford’s global 2.3-litre four-pot, as used in the Mazda 6, among others - but modified to burn hydrogen. Fuel-cell vehicles like the Focus FCV also use hydrogen, but they use ...

Mercedes McLaren SLR Roadster (2007) CAR review

Mercedes McLaren SLR Roadster (2007) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

That name's quite a mouthful, isn’t it? Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Roadster is indeed a tongue twister. And make sure you get Merc and McLaren the right way round, otherwise the men from Germany will get all antsy. Thus the name pretty much sums up the genesis of this car: from coupe (SLR), to hardcore coupe (the 722), and now to ...

Kia Exceed Cabrio (2007) concept CAR review

Kia Exceed Cabrio (2007) concept CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Sexy car from Kia shock! That’s right. When Peter Schreyer (who oversaw the design of the original Audi TT and new Beetle in his time at the VW group) took over as head of design for the Koreans he identified correctly that the firm needed a halo car - essentially a Kia that would turn people on. Well, this is ...

Citroen C3 Stop & Start (2007) CAR review

Citroen C3 Stop & Start (2007) CAR review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Ben Oliver, 26 June 2007 12:21

That’s not the future of green motoring - it’s just a Citroen C3. Don’t be so dismissive. The lengthily titled Citroen C3 1.4i 16v Stop & Start SensoDrive five-door, is very much the present of green motoring, as it carries a smart little innovation that will cut your fuel bills. It could significantly improve city-centre air quality if more manufacturers ...

Volvo V70 D5 (2007) CAR review

Volvo V70 D5 (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Another Volvo Estate. Didn’t the Swedes invent this sector of the market? Listen to Volvo and you’d believe that its estate car stands alongside Coca Cola and Levi jeans as one of the world’s leading brand icons. The estate car might not have been invented by Volvo, but it’s pretty hard to disassociate them. The reality is that Volvo brought ...

Mitsubishi i (2007) CAR review

Mitsubishi i (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Guy Bird, 11 June 2007 09:35

Haven’t we seen this somewhere before? Not the European version, no. The diminutive Mitsubishi i city car closely resembles the ‘Concept i’ shown back in Frankfurt 2003 and a production version has been on sale in Japan since January 2006 – and CAR Online drove the Japanese version recently. But from 1 July 2007, you’ll be able to buy this ...
