Ferrari California Handling Speciale (2012) CAR review

Ferrari California Handling Speciale (2012) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Chris Chilton, 19 April 2012 09:00

Ferrari has revised its entry-level car, the front-engined and folding-hardtop California, stripping out weight, adding power and introducing an optional handling package. Pass me the electron microscope, I’m struggling to see the difference between this revised Ferrari California and the one you drove back in 2009... Forget the microscope, it’s an x-ray machine you need because the important mods are all beneath the ...

Ferrari FF (2011) CAR review

Ferrari FF (2011) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Jethro Bovingdon, 24 March 2011 11:40

A new chapter in Ferrari’s rich history begins with this, the FF. The designation is simply shorthand for ‘Ferrari Four’, and not only is it a two-door 'shooting brake' estate, but for the first time ever a Ferrari has four-wheel drive capability. This new Ferrari FF sounds intriguing. Does it have conventional 4wd system? No. Instead the FF has a two-speed ...

Bentley Continental GT (2011) CAR review

Bentley Continental GT (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Jethro Bovingdon, 07 November 2010 14:00

This, ladies and gents, is the new £135,760 Bentley Continental GT, one of the stars of the December issue of CAR magazine. We were the world’s first car mag to drive the Mk2, on the stunning desert roads of Oman: here’s a quick first drive to whet your appetite, ahead of the magazine going on sale Wednesday 17 November. Bentley ...

Aston Martin DB9 Coupé (2011 model year) CAR review

Aston Martin DB9 Coupé (2011 model year) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Tim Pollard, 17 June 2010 07:30

You might have seen elsewhere that CAR was embedded in the Aston Martin pit team at the weekend's 2010 Le Mans 24-hour race. Which meant we were well placed to pilfer one of the facelifted DB9s on display at the Aston customer hospitality unit at the French race circuit and drive it back to Blighty.A 'facelifted' 2010 Aston Martin DB9? ...

Porsche 911 Turbo S (2010) CAR review

Porsche 911 Turbo S (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 11 May 2010 10:20

It’s a numbers game with the new Porsche 911 Turbo S. For an extra £17,309 (or £17,324 in you opt for the convertible) you get an extra 30bhp, 37lb ft and lots of standard items that would otherwise be extra on the ‘regular’ 493bhp Turbo. S stands for Sport and Porsche’s marketing team would have you believe this new S ...

Lexus LFA (2009): the supercar review

Lexus LFA (2009): the supercar review

Rated 3 out of 53

Chris Chilton, 21 October 2009 00:33

So, Toyota has finally made a new Supra, a car to take the Nissan GT-R down a peg or two?Supra? This is the new Lexus LFA supercar, although I see what you mean. And don’t mention that impossibly quick, incredibly good value, front-engined Japanese supercar, the GT-R. Lexus claims that the new LFA is a proper supercar, a machine to ...

Noble M600 prototype (2009) CAR review

Noble M600 prototype (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 26 August 2009 06:10

Don't forget the background to our new Noble M600 car review. Noble first appeared on the scene with the odd-but-good M10, and then captured the automotive world’s attention with the amazing M12 and M400. Now there’s a new car, the M600, with a 650bhp twin-turbo V8 and a £200k price tag. Ambitious? Certainly. CAR has just driven the M600, and ...

e-Ruf (2008) CAR review: the electric 911

e-Ruf (2008) CAR review: the electric 911

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Oliver, 02 December 2008 10:00

The e-Ruf just confirms our view that its maker is among the world’s coolest car companies. Not content with taking some of the best cars in the world and making them slightly better, and producing the world’s first production car to crack 200mph (it wasn’t the Ferrari F40) Ruf has now decided to take on Tesla and produce a high-end ...

Farbio GTS 400 Supercharged (2008) CAR review

Farbio GTS 400 Supercharged (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Whitworth, 21 November 2008 16:30

This is the new Farbio GTS 400 – the Bath-based car maker’s hottest sports car yet – and CAR Online is the first to take it out onto the road. Earlier this year we drove the standard 262bhp Farbio GTS and while we liked it very much, it was crying out for more power. Well, there’s now power aplenty: Farbio ...

Mercedes SL65 AMG Black Series (2008) CAR review and video

Mercedes SL65 AMG Black Series (2008) CAR review and video

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 06 November 2008 16:00

This is the Mercedes-Benz AMG SL65 Black Series, the star of CAR Magazine’s December 2008 cover. CAR was invited to an exclusive test drive of this outlandish machine on road and track at Mas du Clos, France. Just 350 SL Blacks will be produced, with only nine coming to the UK. We’ll deal with the road test here, but you’ll ...
