BMW M3 (E36) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 05 January 2009 11:00

Long-term test hello - 1 January 2009 We get a lot of nice cars to drive here at CAR, yet still I hold onto to my ageing, slightly battle-scarred E36 BMW M3. Seems there’s no substitute for being able to thrash your own car absolutely senseless. And this car does love to be thrashed. I bought it back in 2001 ...

Jaguar XF 2.7 D long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 29 December 2008 13:30

Long-term test update – 29 December 2008 If you’ve seen the new January 2009 issue of CAR Magazine, you’ll see that we’ve shot our XF side-by-side with an original 1966 S-type. It reminded me how far Jaguars have come in the intervening 42 years: the XF is as modern as the S-type is period, but very much the right design direction ...

Audi Allroad 3.0 TDI long-term test review

I wondered if the sloping rear window might cause trouble but all I needed to do was jiggle the front ...

Mini Cooper S long-term test goodbye

the CAR road test team, 11 December 2008 10:00

Long-term test goodbye – 11 December 2008 Our Mini Cooper S has gone back after a year’s motoring on the CAR fleet. It’ll be sorely missed and I maintain I’d rather have a Cooper S than any other hot hatch. Yes, a Renaultsport Clio might fly around corners with a smidge more attitude and a 500 Abarth might pack even more pizzazz ...

Caterham Seven Superlight 150 long-term test

the CAR road test team, 31 October 2008 11:45

Long term test update – 31 October 2008. With the days getting darker and the nights longer, I took full advantage of last weekend and washed my Caterham. For me this was a big event – I can’t remember the last time I cleaned a long-term car. But the sun was shining so I went and bought some cheap car ...
