MG 6 1.9 DTi (2013) CAR review

2.5

Ollie Kew, 07 May 2013 14:00

The first new car of MG’s Chinese-owned era, the MG 6, now has a turbodiesel engine. The 50mpg motor, which joins the range alongside the 1.8-litre turbocharged petrol, starts from £16,995. CAR drove the MG 6 DTi in mid-spec SE form to see if China has a contender, or an also ran. Is the MG 6 endowed with a competitive new diesel engine? It’s nothing revolutionary, if you’ll ...

Honda Civic 1.8 i-VTEC (2013) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 17 April 2013 07:00

Month 5 running a honda Civic i-VTEC - storage issues in the CAR fleet Civic Finally more or less inured to the endless litany of ‘crashed dirigible on the roof’ jokes, I’d thought it sensible to leave the top box in place for our remaining Civic tenure. Not, however, sensible at all it transpires… ‘How,’ demanded the missus the other ...

Volvo V40 D2 SE (2013) long-term test

the CAR road test team, 03 April 2013 09:00

Month 5 running a Volvo V40: testing the V40's practicality to the limit Having a new baby at the end of last year has had quite an impact on family life with the Volvo: going anywhere these days – even a short daytrip – involves lugging a mountain of equipment around, like we’re embarking on a major expedition up the Orinoco ...

2.5

Ben Pulman (photography by George F. Williams), 11 March 2013 23:00

Which is the best premium German family hatchback – the VW Golf Mk7, Audi A3 or Mercedes A-class? CAR gathered an Audi A3 1.4 TFSI SE, a Mercedes A200 Sport and a VW Golf GT 1.4 TSI together in central London to bring you the definitive verdict. VW has spent billions developing the seventh-gen version of the Golf, Europe’s biggest-selling ...

Mercedes CLA220 CDI (2013) CAR review

3.5

Ben Barry, 06 March 2013 17:00

This is the Mercedes CLA, a new niche model from Stuttgart that aims to offer the style of the CLS 'four-door coupe' at a price that slots in below the C-class. You’ll pay from £23k for the entry-level CLA180 petrol, £27-28k for the 250 petrol, or £25-26k for the 220 CDI diesel – around £2.5k less than the equivalent C-class ...

Toyota Auris (2013) CAR review

Jesse Crosse, 04 February 2013 09:05

Toyota GT86, Toyota Auris. Two cars at opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to delivering thrills. While the GT86 has been making headlines, the Auris is universally perceived as, well, the motoring equivalent of kitchen equipment. And we’re not talking Kitchen Aid or Smeg here; we’re talking Morphy Richards. Toyota's 2013 Auris With the new Auris, Toyota is ...

Volvo V40 R-Design (2013) CAR review

Ollie Kew, 29 January 2013 13:59

Volvo is rolling out its sporty trim level to the V40, with the launch of R-Design models. Think of R-design as Volvo’s answer to Audi’s S-line trim, or M Sport on a BMW. They look meaner, and punters are lured to them: 25% of British V40 hatch buyers on our shores are expected to tick the R-design box (compared with ...

Mercedes A250 Sport (2013) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 25 January 2013 09:30

Forget everything you knew about the Mercedes A-class. The new model is totally different in appearance, concept and character, bearing zero resemblance to the original entry-level Mercedes from 1998 that made the elk famous by failing the stability test named after that top-heavy, antler-bearing, Nordic mammal. The third-generation A-class, now on sale in the UK, is no longer gunning for ...

Seat Leon 1.4 TSI (2013) CAR review

Steve Moody, 24 January 2013 12:15

The new Seat Leon's greatest enemies come from within: its VW Group sister cars like the new Golf and Audi A3 share the same underpinnings, but get posher badges. Can the Leon fight back with better value? CAR has driven petrol and diesel variants to find out. What exactly is under the skin of the new Seat Leon? Like the ...

Volkswagen Golf 1.4 TSI (2013) CAR review

Georg Kacher (photography by John Wycherley), 16 January 2013 11:20

Volkswagen’s all-new, seventh-generation Golf went on UK sale on 7 January, with prices from £16,285. Is it worth your hard-earned cash? We’ve driven the 138bhp 1.4-litre petrol to find out. After 39 years and 29 million Golf sales, VW has finally crashed its hatchback icon into the class above. The seventh generation is now so refined, so grown-up, so classy, ...
