Volkswagen Touareg 3.0 TDI (2012) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 22 May 2012 09:22

Is our VW Touareg 3.0 TDI good value? 22 May 2012 In another life, Rory Lumsden, VW’s PR manager was a magazine sub editor tasked with polishing my road test words when we both worked at Autocar. Seems like old habits die hard, because after I’d mentioned the price difference between my V6 Touareg and our European ed, Georg Kacher’s, ...

Mercedes CLS250 CDI (2012) long-term test review

3.5

Ben Oliver, 21 May 2012 11:01

More long trips in our Mercedes CLS - 21 May 2012 My wife has left me. I am 700 miles from home, on crutches with a right knee that has all the structural integrity of blancmange, and in two days’ time I’m expected to spend all day walking the halls of the Geneva Palexpo show complex. But I don’t expect ...

Mercedes ML250 CDI BlueTec Sport (2012) CAR review

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 03 May 2012 05:28

Mercedes updated its M-class SUV in 2011, offering a fresh take on its Alabama-built 4x4 with new platform, styling and notably-downsized powertrains. Have they leapt to the head of the premium SUV class with the latest edition? Anthony ffrench-Constant evaluates the four-cylinder diesel ML250 Bluetec Sport to find out... Mercedes ML250 first impressions: Computer says no Speed Limit Assist? No thank ...

Audi A6 Allroad (2012) CAR review

Steve Moody, 03 April 2012 08:46

The new 2012 Audi A6 Allroad is an unusual brew of contradictions and adaptations. On the one hand, this model, now in its third iteration, is a darling of the Middle England red-trousered brigade, that most conservative of social sets. Yet it is effectively a blinged-up A6 Avant, with chrome plastered everywhere (hardly the best material for off-road work), hung ...

Porsche Cayenne Diesel (2011) CAR review

3.5

Tim Pollard, 16 August 2011 09:00

The Cayenne is the Porsche we all loved to hate. But is the Cayenne SUV now firmly accepted in the Porsche firmamentr? After all, most now understand the well worn argument that it funds the sports cars we all love. Porsche has built twice as many 4x4s as any other single model line so far this year, for crying out loud. So ...

Mercedes CLS350 CDI BlueEfficiency (2011) CAR review

Jethro Bovingdon, 31 May 2011 12:00

Mercedes-Benz is rightly proud of the outgoing CLS and the market for ‘four-door coupes’ that it pioneered. That car was a real shock when it was unveiled, a radical departure not just from the E class, but the entire Benz range. Some people hated it, but that was kind of the point. And those who loved it really, really loved ...

VW Phaeton 3.0 V6 TDI SWB (2010) CAR review

2.5

Ben Pulman, 14 December 2010 13:00

This is Volkswagen’s revised 2010 Phaeton, an updated version of the German car company’s luxurious limousine. The Phaeton, along with the (much more successful) Touareg, was key to VW Group overlord Ferdinand Piëch’s plan to move the brand upmarket. A people’s car it ain’t, but then the Phaeton’s never had the kudos to compete head-on with BMW, Merc, Audi and ...

Infiniti M30d GT Premium (2010) CAR review

Stephen Worthy, 22 November 2010 10:43

A couple of months after we first drove the new petrol-powered Infiniti M37, CAR has spent some time with the version that is expected to account for 55% of European sales for Infiniti’s executive saloon: the new M30d diesel. Only 55% of Infiniti M sales? That few? Sounds on the conservative side, doesn’t it? Especially as the only other version ...

VW California SE 2.0 BiTDi (2010) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 12 August 2010 11:45

Here at CAR we’re big fans of the VW California, having run one on long-term test for 12 months. And now Volkswagen has facelifted the California, grafting on the latest family face, outfitting its interior with the latest multimedia systems, and dropping the Amarok pick-up’s new twin-turbo engine under the bonnet. Think about it for a moment as well and ...

Infiniti EX30d (2010) new CAR review

3.5

Tim Pollard, 11 August 2010 12:33

Infiniti is finally catching up with the demands of European buyers, busily fitting diesel engines across its range. So the compact EX crossover, the smallest of its 4x4s, now comes as an EX30d. There's no Germanic badge trickery at play here: this is indeed an EX powered by a 3.0-litre diesel. How refreshing. While EX prices start at £35,975 in ...
