Subaru BRZ (2012) CAR review

Subaru BRZ (2012) CAR review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Ben Pulman, 28 March 2012 09:10

This is the new 2012 Subaru BRZ coupe. Developed in conjunction with Toyota (which will sell its version as the GT86, and as the Scion FR-S in the USA) it’s a rear-wheel drive sports car that does things a little differently… Rather than compensating for a lardy kerbweight with a powerful engine, and then fitting fat tyres to cope with ...

Mercedes C250 CDI Coupe (2011) CAR review

Mercedes C250 CDI Coupe (2011) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

The CLK is dead, the E-class Coupe has been pushed upmarket, and the CLC is a horrible old little hatchback. Which, until now, has left Mercedes without a rival for BMW’s 3-series Coupe and Audi’s A5 Coupe. Step forward the Mercedes C-class Coupe – which is all C-class unlike the E-class Coupe which uses parts from both the C- and ...

BMW 320d Efficient Dynamics (2010) CAR review

BMW 320d Efficient Dynamics (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 26 August 2009 11:46

This BMW 320d EfficientDynamics is the cleanest, greenest, most fuel-efficient 3-series ever. It’s designed to appeal to fleet buyers and the environmentally conscious alike, and thanks to some further tuning and tweaking of the company’s biggest selling Three, the 320d EfficientDynamics will, on paper at least, achieve 68.9mpg and emit a remarkable 109g/km. It’ll be officially unveiled at the Frankfurt ...

Lotus Europa SE (2009) CAR review

Lotus Europa SE (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 20 January 2009 16:46

With the Lotus Evora on the horizon and getting ever closer, Hethel has chosen to update its current range-topping sports car, the Europa. Now available in SE guise, it offers more power and torque, tweaked sports suspension, bigger wheels, bigger brakes and a more luxurious cabin. But with the sublime Elise just below it and the Evora soon to be ...

BMW Alpina D3 Bi-Turbo Coupe (2008) CAR review

BMW Alpina D3 Bi-Turbo Coupe (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 10 November 2008 09:30

The Alpina D3 Bi-Turbo Coupe is a 3-series BMW really should make. To create it Alpina, the Buchloe-based tuner, tweaker and BMW bedfellow takes a regular 3-series coupe. It then drops in the twin-turbo diesel engine from a 123d, makes a few changes and the result is an engine with more bhp per litre than any other BMW road car.But ...

Audi TT 2.0 TDI (2008) driven CAR review

Audi TT 2.0 TDI (2008) driven CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 29 April 2008 16:17

The Audi TT TDI. Is this oil-burner from Audi another Ingolstadt niche? Or a svelte coupe and cabriolet with low-end grunt, low emissions and decent fuel consumption? A few critics of Audi's blunderbuss new model programme worry it's another box ticked so the company can out-offer the opposition. And worse than that, perhaps Audi is offering something no one really ...

Audi A5 3.0 TDi (2007) CAR review

Audi A5 3.0 TDi (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Pulman, 13 July 2007 02:13

Haven’t you driven the Audi A5 before? We have, but only in S5 guise, and not on UK roads. Back in April we drove the 354bhp V8 but that was Audi’s attempt to steal a little limelight from the BMW M3; now we’ve got behind the wheel of the 3.0-litre diesel. Audi hasn’t been in the big coupe game for ...
