Tata Nano CAR review: first riding impressions

Rated 4 out of 5

Ben Oliver, 08 December 2008 14:37

The new Tata Nano costs as much as a scooter, so can it really drive like a proper car? This is the question we’ve all been asking since news first leaked that the Indian firm was planning to rewrite the automotive rules with a £1300 car. And now, exclusively, CAR can tell you. We travelled to India and scored the ...

Not even James Bond has driven the Aston Martin DBS Touchtronic yet. Quantum of Solace is just about to open but Daniel Craig must content himself with the standard manual DBS.

Subaru Impreza 2.5 WRX STi Type UK (2008) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 5

Ben Oliver, 08 April 2008 06:44

New Imprezas seem to arrive with the frequency of buses. But this one really is new, and important. It’s the UK-specification STi, so for us it’s the benchmark new Impreza: it gets the 2457cc, 297bhp flat-four instead of the Japanese-spec 2.0-litre, which CAR Online was the first to test the day after its Tokyo motor show unveiling in November 2007. ...

Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X CAR review

Rated 4 out of 5

Ben Oliver, 01 October 2007 03:00

So this is the tenth new version of the Evo – why should I still take any notice? Sure, some previous new Evos had differences that only its diehard fans could spot or cared about. Not this time. The Mitsubishi Evo X is new from the wheels up. It reignites the rivalry that has raged on streets and rally stages ...
