Skoda Superb 2.0 TDI Elegance (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Whitworth, 16 May 2008 09:31

Skoda’s Superb flagship has always been a leftfield option among mainstream motorway fodder. It had two difficult names to overcome, generic Volkswagen-esque styling, a lot of hand-me-down componentry and no real heritage to speak off. That didn't stop 12,500 brave souls from buying one in the UK. Skoda reckons its new Superb will be a far more attractive proposition when ...

Renault Laguna GT dCi 180 Sport Tourer (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Whitworth, 10 April 2008 16:43

When it arrived late last year we gave Renault’s Laguna a bit of a pasting for its dull looks and overall lack of appeal. There wasn't much wrong with its driving dynamics, and Renault’s claim for best-in-class refinement and quality didn't seem too wide of the mark, but it was sorely lacking in sparkle. The Sport Tourer estate went some ...

Mazda 3 2.0D (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

It joins the existing 90bhp and 109bhp versions of the 1.6-litre turbo diesel, ...

Mitsubishi Shogun (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Whitworth, 14 December 2006 09:32

New Shogun? Are you sure? With its faux-rally flared wheelarches, stubby nose complete with diamond-studded ‘Mount Fuji’ nose and hatch-mounted spare wheel, this new fourth-generation Shogun may look pretty much the same as before. But three-quarters of it is new, apparently. Like the new Outlander , it arrives here next March, and comes as a stretched five-door or short wheelbase ...

Mitsubishi Outlander (2006) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Whitworth, 12 December 2006 10:30

Ah yes, the Outlander, aka the C-Crosser and 4007… Yes indeed. Mitsubishi’s new Outlander, which arrives in the UK next March, is the perfect example of the interwoven intricacies of the current automotive market. It’s a soft-roader built on a platform jointly developed by Mitsubishi and DaimlerChrysler, powered by a Volkswagen-sourced diesel engine and a petrol unit co-developed with Hyundai, ...
