Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 (2013) CAR review

Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 (2013) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 26 April 2013 11:00

Lamborghini may be blowing out 50th birthday candles, but you won’t hear it crowing on about another anniversary: that the Gallardo turns ten this year too. That’s a long time in this business, especially when the Ferrari 458/McLaren 12C firefight has left the Gallardo almost completely out of the spotlight of late. The latest facelift won’t alter that, but it ...

BMW M6 Gran Coupe (2013) CAR review

BMW M6 Gran Coupe (2013) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Barry, 19 April 2013 16:30

This is the new BMW M6 Gran Coupe, a four-door coupe/saloon that slots between the M6 coupe and M5 saloon. It gives Munich a direct rival to the Mercedes CLS 63 AMG (£82k) and forthcoming Audi RS7, and an excuse to add £24k to the M5's sticker price – it'll cost £97,490 when it goes on sale in May. The ...

Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series (2013) CAR review

Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series (2013) CAR review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Ben Barry, 04 March 2013 07:00

This is the new Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series, the fifth Black Series since the SLK55 AMG kicked things off in 2006, and closest in spirit to the SL65 Black Series of 2008. At around £230k, it's a solid £60k clear of the regular SLS on which it's based and only a little cheaper than the Ferrari F12. We've come ...

Ford Fiesta ST (2013) CAR review

Ford Fiesta ST (2013) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Barry, 28 February 2013 16:00

This is the Ford Fiesta ST, baby brother to the Focus ST and follow-up to the 2005-2008 ST. It costs from £16,995, putting it head-to-head with Renault’s new sub-£20k Clio RS and Peugeot’s new £18,895 208 GTI. What’s the tech spec? At the ST’s heart lies a 1.6-litre Ecoboost turbo engine that chucks 180bhp and 214lb ft to the front ...

Pagani Huayra (2013) CAR review

Pagani Huayra (2013) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Barry, 06 February 2013 09:01

Welcome to CAR's review of the Pagani Huayra supercar. Don't forget to check out Ben Barry's video review lower down the page, to see and hear that amazing bi-turbo V12 in action... You’ll know that the supercar world has changed beyond recognition since the days of the Ferrari 288 GTO and Lamborghini Countach. Most of the minnows have been swallowed ...

Aston Martin Vanquish (2012) CAR review

Aston Martin Vanquish (2012) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Barry, 25 October 2012 08:00

Yes, it looks like just another DB9 derivative, yet another twist on Henrik Fisker’s 2004 original, but this is the new Aston Martin Vanquish, and there’s a lot more going on than first impressions suggest. What are the big changes for the Aston Vanquish? The standout change is the use of carbonfibre for all the body panels, where the other ...

Acura MDX (2012) CAR review

Acura MDX (2012) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 17 September 2012 09:30

Think of a seven-seat SUV and the chances are that a Land Rover Discovery or BMW X5 will pop into your head. Not a Honda, though, because Honda doesn’t sell one, not in the UK at least. However, it does in North America, where it offers both the Honda Pilot and the related Acura MDX. We’re testing the Acura in ...

McLaren 12C vs the world - Part 1 (CAR archive, June 2011)

McLaren 12C vs the world - Part 1 (CAR archive, June 2011)

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Barry, 24 August 2012 12:00

So, this is it, the big one. In a layby on an empty Welsh road linking nowhere in particular to somewhere else altogether sit a McLaren MP4-12C and Ferrari 458 Italia. Both cars are brimmed with superplus, fluids tickled to temperature, specs long since decided, minders long since departed. Finally they’re ours, and over the next couple of days we’ll ...

Mazda MX-5 GT (2012) CAR review

Mazda MX-5 GT (2012) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 21 August 2012 14:00

Talk about stealing the limelight: so much has the focus been on the new Toyota GT86 and Subaru BRZ twins that just about everyone has forgotten about one key alternative, the Mazda MX-5. Now Mazda UK are hoping to put at stop to all that, with this MX-5 GT concept. A production car would be preferable, surely… Well, hopefully that’s ...

Ferrari F12 Berlinetta (2012) CAR Review

Ferrari F12 Berlinetta (2012) CAR Review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Ben Barry, 30 July 2012 09:22

Here it is, then, CAR Magazine's long-awaited first drive review of the new Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, replacement for the 599. The F12 is an all-new car, but the basics remain familiar: a powerful, naturally aspirated V12 sits ahead of the driver, while power flows to the rear wheels only. What are the key features of the new Ferrari F12 Berlinetta? The 6262cc V12 ...
