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

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 CAR review

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

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 ...

Aston Martin DBS Touchtronic (2008) CAR review

Ben Oliver, 29 October 2008 00:01

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. We’ve already driven his likely next car: the DBS Touchtronic with an automatic gearbox, a new Bang and Olufsen sound system and gorgeous new optional wheels. Read our full ...

Gumpert Apollo S (2008) CAR review

Mark Walton, 24 September 2008 09:00

Everything you need to know about the Gumpert Apollo is there from the outset, worn on the sleeve and clearly visible the first time you look at it. Or should that be ‘stare’ at it. Compact, brutish, uncompromising, and fearsomely fast, the Gumpert Apollo looks like an old Group C racer for the road, and it’s probably as quick as one ...

Corvette ZR1 (2008) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 11 September 2008 10:00

The new Corvette ZR1 is the world’s quickest and rawest sports car – only mad supercars and insane track cars can best it. This is a bright yellow bullet, with 638bhp (making it the most powerful ‘Vette of all time), carbonfibre bodywork and Brembo’s biggest ceramic brakes. Just 1800 ZR1s will be built each year at GM’s plant in Kentucky, ...

Artega GT (2008) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 09 September 2008 09:50

The new Artega GT is a Porsche Cayman S rival at 911 money from a brand new German manufacturer. Delusions of grandeur? Perhaps not, because the chief advisor to the project is Karlheinz Kalbfell, an ex-BMW man who helped launch Mini and Rolls-Royce under German ownership, before moving onto Alfa and Maserati. And the VW Group supplies the engine and ...

CAR's great drives: Ferrari F512M to the Sahara. Part 1

Richard Bremner, 28 August 2008 17:00

Thirteen years ago, CAR came up with a brilliant wheeze of driving a Ferrari to Africa. It was the first time we had attempted such an adventure with a Ferrari – and we were surprised when Maranello agreed. Richard Bremner is your guide, as we drive an F512M down to the sand dunes of the Sahara. Read our full unabridged ...

CAR's great drives: Convoy! Part 2

Mel Nichols, 28 August 2008 17:00

Convoy! Continued... Click here to read Convoy! Part 1. It's CAR's seminal drive story from 1977, as Mel Nichols pilots a convoy of three Lamborghinis from Modena across the Alps and back to London We swapped again, in the bright sunshine of the afternoon now, and Roger removed the Silhouette’s roof. I switched to the Urraco with Steve at the ...
