Jaguar XJ 3.0D (2011) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 13 October 2011 10:00

Reliability – 13 October 2011 We’re pleased to report that the Jag’s been very reliable so far, certainly less troublesome than my previous Range Rover Sport, or Tim Pollard’s Jaguar XF long termer. But its copybook isn’t 100% blemish-free. I’ve had the dreaded ‘Smart Key not detected’ message a couple of times and recently a tyre pressure warning light has appeared ...

Audi S8 (2012) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 12 October 2011 09:21

This is the new Audi S8, a £80k and 513bhp über-limo Ingolstadt believes will take on Jaguar’s XJ Supersport and Mercedes’ S63 AMG. The new S8 is purposely positioned away from the other circa-500bhp Audi limo, the A8 W12. That other £94.5k Audi limo is powered by a naturally aspirated 6.3-litre W12 engine, produces 493bhp and 460lb ft, and comes ...

Rolls-Royce 102 EX (2011) CAR first drive review

3.5

Ben Oliver, 17 June 2011 09:26

This is the Rolls-Royce 102EX. Also known as the Phantom Experimental Electric, it swaps V12 petrol power for a massive block of batteries and electric motors to create perhaps the least-likely EV conversion ever. Does the Rolls-Royce 102EX work as a viable EV luxury limo? Read on for CAR's drive of the 102EX to find out... Rolls-Royce 102EX: the rationale ...

Fisker Karma (2011) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 29 March 2011 09:00

It's been three years since former Aston Martin designer Henrik Fisker displayed his Fisker Karma plug-in hybrid concept car, and with full production looming in 2012 CAR has now tried a pre-production Karma at Fontana Raceway near Fisker's headquarters in Irvine, California. Read on for CAR's first drive review of the new Fisker Karma. Why has it taken three years ...

Jaguar XJ (2010) in Iceland: the full video

2.5

Ben Pulman, 11 November 2010 09:30

Watch the video of our Icelandic adventure in Jaguar's XJ – click hereIn the current November 2010 issue CAR has taken Jaguar’s glorious XJ limousine to Iceland – it’s a worthy test of the £74,900 long-wheelbase 5.0-litre V8 Portfolio model. Jaguar's new XJ isn't a luxury car that isolates you from your environment, but a sports saloon that really involves the driver. Your ...

Bentley Mulsanne (2010): new CAR review

3.5

Ben Oliver, 28 June 2010 14:48

The new Bentley Mulsanne will cost from £220,000 in the UK, much closer to a Rolls-Royce Ghost than the Phantom. At 5.5m, it’s also closer in size to the 5.4m Ghost than the 5.8m Phantom, but at 2585kg around the same weight as the aluminium Phantom and 150kg heavier than the steel Ghost.Bentley Mulsanne: the numbers gameSuch numbers are useful ...

Mercedes S350 CDI BlueEfficiency LWB (2010) CAR review

Anonymous, 30 April 2010 10:39

Visually, there's little to pinpoint the 2009 facelift of the S-class; a more arrow-shaped radiator grille here, a fresh bumper and exhausts there. But myriad changes were ushered in under the skin, with many of Merc's technical innovations from its new models such as the E-class cascading upwards. It's normally the reverse in Stuttgart. This S350 CDI variant is new, ...

Audi A8 4.2 TDI SE (2010) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 18 February 2010 09:00

I didn’t realise Audi was doing a long-wheelbase A4. Is there no niche left unexplored? A4? This is the new 2010 Audi A8, Ingolstadt’s technological flagship, a limo built around a supercar-style aluminium spaceframe and boasting the sort of toys that would make Inspector Gadget envious (and owners thankful that Lucas doesn’t do Audi’s electrics). But it’s an easy mistake ...

Aston Martin Rapide (2010): the CAR review

Jethro Bovingdon, 12 February 2010 09:00

brightcove.createExperiences(); brightcove.createExperiences(); This is Aston Martin being sensible. Well, relatively sensible. The new 2010 Rapide has four doors and four seats. But don’t fear, it still has a 5.9-litre V12 with 470bhp and will carry four occupants to 188mph. It still looks like an Aston, too. We really can’t think of a better looking four-door on the planet. But that ...
