Porsche Cayman S (2013) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 12 February 2013 12:30

The new ‘981-generation’ Porsche Cayman S is 30kg lighter than the outgoing model, 5bhp more powerful, and boasts same the classy interior as its soft-top Boxster sibling. Is it still the £40-50k sports car benchmark? Porsche Cayman S: the spec The new Cayman is bigger than before: its wheelbase is 60mm longer, and it now rides on 19-inch rims as ...

Mercedes CLS Shooting Brake (2012) CAR review

3.5

Steve Moody, 27 November 2012 10:30

Despite the name, this CLS Shooting Brake isn’t a huntsman’s best friend. For a start, it cannot be adapted to four-wheel drive for right-hand-drive markets, as the driveshaft to the front wheels comes out of the right-hand side of the engine, just where useful things such as the steering column would get in the way. That’s a shame, because in ...

Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 (2012) CAR review

3.5

Anonymous, 16 October 2012 11:00

Need a two tonne off-roader that’s capable of 0-62mph in around five seconds? Who doesn’t? Well, the majority of us but for those people that are that way inclined the usual choices to flirt around consists of the Range Rover Sport, Porsche Cayenne or more powerful BMW X5 models. For this kind of performance, however, you will have to spend ...

Lexus GS450h F Sport (2012) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 19 December 2011 10:47

This is the fourth generation Lexus GS, but it’s not about to take on the hegemony of Audi, BMW and Mercedes in Europe as there are still no plans for a four-cylinder diesel. There /is/ a new 2.5-litre V6 petrol but, officially, it’s dirtier and less fuel efficient than the headline-grabbing hybrid version, the GS450h. It’s the hybrid we’ve tested ...

BMW 640i Coupe (2011) CAR review

3.5

Jethro Bovingdon, 14 July 2011 11:08

Hardened BMW fans (I’d put myself under that umbrella) might still be coming to terms with cars like the X6 and X1, but huge sales figures render our furrowed brows rather irrelevant. Even so, it’s nice to be reporting on a niche BMW that’s not a quasi off-roader. In fact the new 6-Series should keep traditionalists very happy. Based on ...

Lotus Evora IPS auto (2011) CAR review

Tim Pollard, 22 June 2011 12:00

The new Lotus Evora IPS has a very simple mission in life. New Lotus management are busy patching up their product range to expand Hethel’s footprint around the world – and much of the world prefers their cars to be automatics. Buyers in America and Asia, in particular, are likely to pick the two-pedal option, and Lotus predicts the new ...

Porsche Cayman R PDK (2011) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 24 February 2011 13:00

CAR's just driven the new Porsche Cayman R, the third addition to Porsche’s mid-engined coupe range to sit above the Cayman and Cayman S. There’s a whole host of weight-saving measures (some welcome, some not), more power, and a serious set of chassis tweaks. It should be the best Porsche Cayman yet – read on for CAR’s first drive review. What ...

Lotus Evora S (2010) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 01 November 2010 16:31

This is the new Lotus Evora S, and with the help of a supercharger, its 3.5-litre V6 has been boosted from the standard Evora’s 276bhp and 252lb ft, to 345bhp and 295lb ft. Enough, Lotus hopes, to shake off criticism that the Evora just isn’t quick enough; it’s that car’s only real fault, so has the extra power turned the ...

Infiniti FX30d (2010) CAR review

Jethro Bovingdon, 08 September 2010 12:20

When it comes to SUVs, you can’t get much more leftfield than the Infiniti FX. Just look at it. You’ll either love or loathe the wacky looks, and the engine line-up has been equally divisive. Until now entry level was a smooth, gutsy 3.7 litre V6, the next rung up a 385bhp, 369lb ft 5.0-litre V8, both powered by the ...

BMW M3 Competition Package (2010) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 01 September 2010 11:15

The BMW M3 GTS might have been stealing all the headlines recently, but there’s another new M3 around too, the Competition Package-equipped Coupe. Introduced as an option as part of a recent mid-life update, it offers a performance-focussed pack for those who want their E92 M3 to feel a bit more CS, CSL and GTS. But while the Comp Pack ...
