Jaguar XF 2.2D (2012) long-term test review

Jaguar XF 2.2D (2012) long-term test review

Rated 3 out of 53

The key to a comfy saloon - 14 May 2012 Audi, BMW and Mercedes. These are the names that the government-approved Road Test Computer throws out when you key it to search for Jaguar XF rivals. Fair enough. The computer works on the basis of set criteria, among them size, body shape, price, performance etc. But, when the CAR long-termer ...

BMW M5 (2012) long-term test review

Steel brakes clogging up on our M5 - 8 May 2012 Had a quick peek at the M5’s cross-drilled brake discs the other day and noticed they were clogged with carbon deposits. Every hole on the front discs is full, while the rear discs are slowly filling up. I actually ended up inspecting them after feeling that the brakes weren’t ...

Infiniti M35h hybrid (2011) long-term test review

Infiniti M35h hybrid (2011) long-term test review

Rated 4 out of 54

Time to service the Infiniti M35h - 17 April 2012 Word of warning to high-mileage executive types: Infiniti is stuck with decades-old servicing intervals. Our M requires maintenance every 9000 miles, comparing badly with the German rivals it's aimed at whose variable servicing typically doubles that for M-way-pounding types. This took me so much by surprise that we were actually ...

Audi A8 4.2 TDI (2010) long-term test review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

The definition of agility – 15 July 2011 Phew. Breathless drive last night in our leviathan A8 4.2 TDI leaves me marvelling at the strange mysteries of dynamic scale. I’ll let you into a wee secret: myself and the editor had a slight disagreement the other day about the word ‘agility’. We wanted to get across the fact that the Alfa ...

BMW 530d SE Gran Turismo (2010) long-term test review

BMW 530d SE Gran Turismo (2010) long-term test review

Rated 4 out of 54

the CAR road test team, 13 January 2011 09:49

Long-term test - 13 January 2011 Recap: last month a torque convertor bolt came loose in our 5GT’s gearbox, was ejected at high speed and cracked the sump. Result: our BMW leaked oil across the CAR HQ car park, because (credit the 5GT’s refinement) our colleague behind the wheel didn’t notice anything untoward as he parked up. Meaning the first ...

Today we reveal our first driving impressions of Jaguar’s replacement for the S-type and its answer to BMW’s big selling 5-series. Roomier, better built and better equipped than before it also showcases a new design language for Jaguar’s saloons. And click here to see the Jaguar XF in action with CAR road test editor Chris Chilton behind the wheel.
