Volvo S60 Polestar (2012) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Chris Chilton, 21 June 2012 07:00

Polestar, the Swedish race team behind last year’s 450bhp C30 hatch, have turned their attention to the mild-mannered S60, changing it into a 500bhp M3 eater A 500bhp S60!? Is Volvo having a midlife crisis? If it is, it ought to have them more often. Taking the S60 T6 as a base, Polestar stuck with the transversely-mounted straight six, but ...

Audi R8 V12 TDI Concept (2008) driven CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Georg Kacher, 10 April 2008 10:43

Does the world need the Audi R8 V12 TDI, a supercar powered by diesel? We love the regular Audi R8. It’s our 2007 performance car of the year, with sublime steering that belies its Ingolstadt roots, and one of the best gearboxes around. That high-revving 4.2-litre V8 sounds wonderful and the quattro system juggles all-weather security with rear bias for ...

Aston Martin V12 Vantage RS concept (2008) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Nick Trott, 19 March 2008 09:15

Aston Martin's V12 Vantage RS. Big engine, little car. It’s a concept many of the great performance cars have employed. Take a powerful engine from your biggest car and stuff it into your smallest car to create a proper factory hot rod. In this case Aston has wedged the 600bhp V12 from no less than the DBRS9 racer under the ...
