Ford Verve concept (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

James Foxall, 15 October 2007 10:11

Ford Verve? Isn’t that the Fiesta replacement? It certainly is, although by the time it goes on sale in November 2008 it’ll probably be called Fiesta again. Whatever the name, the new car will have a radical new look that’s previewed by this concept model. Ford consulted female buyers and they wanted something that would stand out a bit more ...

Volvo XC60 concept (2007) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

James Foxall, 09 October 2007 09:27

Volvo already has a couple of off-roaders. What does it need another one for? The Swedes claim that people who want to do off-roady things like driving down dirt tracks and towing horseboxes will go for its XC70 and XC90 models. The XC60 is being aimed at design-conscious townies who want an on-road vehicle with a tiny bit of off-road ...

Infiniti G37 Coupe Sport (2007) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 27 September 2007 09:36

An Infiniti G37? Isn’t that just a posh Nissan 350Z? Yes and no. A lot of the G37’s basics are 350Z-derived, but this is far more than just badge engineering – the Infiniti is a very different beast to the Nissan it’s based on. But to fully understand this car, first we need some context. In America, Infiniti is Nissan’s ...

Mercedes C220 CDI estate (2007) review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Ged Maxwell, 19 September 2007 05:30

Ooh, a compact exec estate. What combination of sport/tourer/Avant/wagon is it called? None: the Mercedes C-Class estate is, well, just that. Plain old estate. And the largest premium-class estate at that. How very sensible. Mercedes may have been unusually bold in its approach to the latest C – hacking off the stick-up grille badge for Sport editions, making the chassis ...

Dodge Demon Concept (2007) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Nick Trott, 01 June 2007 08:36

Dodge Demon Roadster. Great name, but this is just a concept car right? For now, yes. But like pretty much all of Dodge, Jeep and Chrysler's concepts, this one is driveable and we have driven it. The Chrysler Group also has a funny habit of putting their concept cars into production, in which case the Demon promises much. It is ...

Citroen Cruise Crosser (2007) CAR review

Rated 2 out of 52

James Foxall, 08 May 2007 11:18

A six-wheeled Citroen pick-up truck? Are you serious? Certainly am. And with its weird Cruise Crosser, Citroen is too. Pick-ups are big business, particularly in the UK where people have started buying them as a cheap alternative to 4x4s. And the firm’s bosses told us that a pick-up could feature in its range in the future. If you’re already making ...

Honda Civic Type R Rally (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Whitworth, 26 April 2007 04:14

What’s this – I didn't know Honda was going rallying? It’s not, well, not just yet. Let me explain. In 2005, the FIA World Council decided to create a new cost-effective rally championship for 2007, called the Intercontinental Rally Challenge. The nine-round calendar for 2007 includes some classic stages like the Sanremo and Safari rallies, as well as some more ...

Infiniti G35 S (2007) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 29 January 2007 01:08

A G35S what? Infiniti. This halo brand is to Nissan what Lexus is to Toyota – a premium range to take on the might of the upper-crust European competition. Europe will get the Infiniti range in 2008 – a range featuring coupés, saloons and SUVs – but the line-up is yet to be confirmed, as is the UK on-sale date. ...

Brooke Double R (2006) CAR review

Rated 2 out of 52

Angus Fitton, 19 December 2006 08:50

The Brooke looks familiar It’s similar in style to Gordon Murray’s bike-engined Rocket from 1992, but the Brooke adopts a more conventional seating layout – two abreast, not one behind the other – and the engine is the 260bhp Cosworth four used in the Caterham CSR. What’s underneath? Not a lot. The Brooke weighs just 550kg, or 310kg less than ...

Morgan AeroMax (2006) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

James Foxall, 07 December 2006 07:45

AeroMax? Looks like an Aero 8 with a roof to me Yup, that’s exactly what it is. They’ve used their traditional ash frame for the bodywork and extended it to include the roof. The craftsmanship inside is gorgeous with a beautifully curved wooden central spine running from windscreen to boot floor. Like the Aero 8 the bodywork is made of ...
