Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer 1.4T (2011) CAR review

Ben Barry, 29 March 2011 11:30

This is the Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer, the big-booted version of the Griffin's family hatch. It's the second Astra model (joining the five-door hatch) while there's also a three-door GTC on the way later in 2011. Read on for CAR's first drive review of the new Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer. Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer – an Opel in all but brandname? ...

Audi RS6 Avant by Abt (2010) CAR review

Ben Barry, 22 April 2010 10:51

For most people, you’d think an all-wheel drive estate with 572bhp and 479lb ft of torque was quite enough. Not German tuner Abt, which has tweaked the Audi RS6 to 690bhp and 590lb ft. ABT, you say? It’s Abt, surname of company founder Johann Abt, and it’s pronounced much like ‘apt’. After years on the edges of our consciousness, Abt ...

VW Golf SE 1.4 TSI Estate (2010) CAR review

3.5

Glen Waddington, 06 April 2010 15:29

Volkswagen hasn’t bothered to wreak the same transformation with the new Golf Estate as it did with the Golf hatchback, in the progression from Mk5 to Mk6. There are new engines, a new facia and a new nose, but the chassis and structure are pretty much left alone. So, should we feel cheated, or is a revamped old-shaped Golf estate ...

Mercedes E200 CGI Estate (2010) CAR review

2.5

Tim Pollard, 25 March 2010 11:19

Bear with me here. A big hulking E-class Estate – weighing the thick end of 1.7 tonnes – might not seem best suited to a humble sub-2.0-litre four-pot petrol. But that's exactly what we have here. The entry-level E-class Estate is the E200 CGI, and our BlueEfficiency model in SE trim is the only E-class wagon to nudge under £30,000. ...

Mercedes C63 AMG Estate (2009) CAR review

Ben Barry, 02 March 2009 09:30

Seems like the Mercedes C63 AMG estate has a bit of breathing space. Why? Because if you’re in the market for a circa-£50k muscle estate, you’re options are seriously limited. BMW failed to come through with the M3 Touring and there’ll be no RS4 Avant this time (just the V6 S4 Avant and RS5 coupe), leaving you with the option ...

Skoda Octavia Combi 1.8 TSI facelift CAR review

Jed Maxwell, 29 January 2009 12:00

While Skoda’s Superb has been stealing headlines for the Czech firm lately, it’s easy to overlook the Octavia. But the smaller model remains Skoda’s best-seller and to ensure it stays that way it’s undergone a mid-life nip and tuck designed to prolong its appeal. But this is more than a cosmetic overhaul with mechanical improvements aimed at beefing up the ...

Audi RS6 Avant (2008) CAR review

Ben Barry, 29 January 2008 11:08

Another performance car for the mid-life crisis, then? Harsh. The Audi RS6 carries on what the original car started back in 2002: it’s an all-wheel drive large family car – the estate goes on sale first to stress its versatility – with supercar-crushing performance. And that’s no hyperbole. With its 5.0-litre V10 – a heavily re-worked version of the 5.2-litre ...

Mini Clubman (2007) CAR review

Tim Pollard, 07 September 2007 12:01

The new Mini Clubman: one weird-looking car It sure is. Devoted fans of all things Mini – and there have been more than a million buyers since BMW first unleashed its lesson in retro pastiche in July 2001 – may find it the coolest thing since having an RAF symbol on their roof, but many neutral observers will find the ...
