Peugeot 508 SW 2.0 HDI (2012) long-term test review

3.5

CAR road test team, 30 April 2012 17:50

The 508 SW has arrived! 30 April 2012 The Peugeot 508 SW arrived today to take the place of a much beloved and recently departed Skoda Superb. Both big diesel estates, both costing around £25k. The Superb pleased on all fronts and gives a good basis for comparison. The big Pug looks great sat on the driveway - it’s all ...

Hyundai i40 Tourer 1.7 CRDi (2012) long-term test review

3.5

the CAR road test team, 13 April 2012 14:13

Enjoying the 500-mile range of the i40 - 13 April 2012 It's all in the mind of course, but there is something satisfying about a range of over 500 miles. Makes you feel like you're getting value for money. It's all in the mind because in order to see that figure on the trip, you've got to brim the Hyundai's ...

Skoda Superb Greenline Estate (2012) long-term test review

3.5

the CAR road test team, 23 March 2012 15:30

In search for a second-hand Skoda Superb - 23 March 2012 With the end of my time with the Skoda Superb estate fast approaching, I find myself contemplating the future and getting a little anxious. The thought of life without her and her big booty fills me with dread and fear. And so it is, late at night and after ...

BMW 530d SE Touring (2011) long-term test review

3.5

the CAR road test team, 20 January 2012 10:30

A year in our BMW 530d Touring - 20 January 2012 Are we road testers too easily entranced by big luxury diesel estates? Over a misspent youth poring over car magazines, I remember reading of hacks falling for the charms of said vehicles in the 1980s. One colleague on another mag actually bid for his long-term BMW 330d Touring when ...

Mercedes E63 AMG Estate (2011) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 04 October 2011 10:00

Goodbye to our E63 Estate – 4 October 2011 So, it’s all over; the best, most complete, most satisfying car I’ve ever owned is returning to Mercedes. I’ve loved the look, the comfort, the performance, the practicality, the lairy chassis, the main dealer aftersales service. There’s only been one niggle: I’ve not always been convinced by the gearbox’s Comfort and Sport modes, ...

Toyota Avensis 2.2 D4-D Tourer long-term test review

2.5

the CAR road test team, 04 June 2009 10:41

Long-term test update – 4 June 2009 It’s not meant to be ironic, but I suppose it is: a picture of the Toyota Avensis, lined up on the grid at Goodwood with the other Wacky Racers, from the feature in the latest July 2009 issue of CAR Magazine. Can you imagine a less *wacky* car to drive to a photoshoot ...
