Fiat Panda 4x4 TwinAir (2013) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Steve Moody, 28 January 2013 09:10

When the very first Big Willie tanks clanked and crawled across the killing grounds of the Somme, it quickly became apparent that weight is not helpful for vehicles off the beaten track. Odd then, that nearly a century later we are still attempting to grind our way across hostile terrain in blasted great things of many tonnes. Handily, we’re not ...

Fiat Panda 0.9 TwinAir (2012) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Phil McNamara, 27 January 2012 11:03

This is Fiat’s third-generation Panda, which goes on UK sale in February 2012. Fiat has buffed up interior quality and features over the outgoing car’s, and plumbed in the TwinAir two-cylinder turbo engine, which was the version we drove. This being a city car and us being CAR magazine, we perversely took the Panda as far from its natural habitat ...

Renaultsport Twingo 133 Cup (2009) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Pulman, 05 October 2009 11:45

Renaultsport does a rather fine line in hot hatches. The outgoing R26R is amazing, the Clio 200 is brilliant, and we’re all fans of the tiny Twingo 133. And now there’s a new Renaultsport Twingo 133, the Cup. But I can already spec a Cup chassis on the Renaultsport Twingo 133, so what’s new? Pen and paper at the ready, ...

Fiat Grande Punto Abarth (2007) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Simon Harris, 27 September 2007 04:00

Abarth? Am I right in thinking the last time I saw that name it was on a Fiat Stilo? Wash your mouth out! We don’t talk about that. Abarth has now been launched as a new brand in the Fiat stable, alongside the likes of Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Maserati and Fiat. Fiat has owned Abarth outright since 1971, and the ...

Citroen C3 Stop & Start (2007) CAR review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Ben Oliver, 26 June 2007 12:21

That’s not the future of green motoring - it’s just a Citroen C3. Don’t be so dismissive. The lengthily titled Citroen C3 1.4i 16v Stop & Start SensoDrive five-door, is very much the present of green motoring, as it carries a smart little innovation that will cut your fuel bills. It could significantly improve city-centre air quality if more manufacturers ...

Mini One and Cooper D (2007) CAR review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

CJ Hubbard, 19 April 2007 01:53

This is old news isn't it? We've seen this new new MINI before... Ah, but no. You've seen the new Cooper, and the new Cooper S - the sportiest models. This brand spanking pair of cheery-faced tearaways comprise the Mk II entry-level Mini One, and suspiciously unsporty-sounding Cooper D. Yes, that is D for Diesel. We do understand your confusion, ...

Skoda Roomster 1.4 (2006) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Whitworth, 31 July 2006 03:47

Is that really a Skoda? It sure is. The Roomster is the standard bearer for a new range of design-led Skodas, which means next year's new Fabia will be far more interesting than the current model, and expect the Yeti softroader, out in 2008, to stay true to its concept. Under the skin, the Roomster uses a combination of Fabia ...
