Aston Martin DB9 (2013) long-term test review

Rated 2 out of 52

the CAR road test team, 04 June 2013 11:00

Month 2 running an Aston Martin DB9: the DB9 heads to base for gremlin-fixing treatment A quick update on our DB9. It’s been in to Aston’s own Works dealership in Newport Pagnell, and the diagnosis of the faulty Garmin sat-nav calls for a new control unit. It’s on order, and the new part should arrive in a week or so. ...

Peugeot 208 Allure 1.2 VTi (2012) long-term test

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

After 18 months spent in four-wheel-drive long-termers, I’m rediscovering my inner hooligan. In a diesel estate car. Any doubts I may have had about picking the 330d when I could have been ...

Ford Focus ST (2013) long-term test review

Rated 2 out of 52

the CAR road test team, 23 May 2013 09:00

Month 3 running a Ford Focus ST: should the ST have four-wheel drive? Interesting one, , this: Ford won’t sell you the punchiest diesel Kuga SUV in front-wheel-drive guise, instead ensuring that its 251lb ft of torque flows through all four tyres. But our Focus ST channels 265lb ft through the front wheels alone, with none of the trick limited-slip ...
