Used supercars: buying a Porsche 996 Turbo

Used supercars: buying a Porsche 996 Turbo

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 21 March 2013 10:50

Performance bargain of the moment? Only the current glut of £7k E46 M3s can possibly stand between a £20k 996 Turbo and that accolade. Because this is an extraordinary amount of car for the money, the one supercar that doesn’t require ownership of another car in case the weather’s not right, or you’re too tired, or are worried about parking, or ...

Used supercars: buying a Lamborghini Gallardo

Used supercars: buying a Lamborghini Gallardo

Rated 3 out of 53

Chris Chilton, 20 March 2013 10:30

The Lamborghini Gallardo is ten years old this year. Can you believe it? Only a true geek could tell this early £65k Gallardo apart from a new one costing 150% more. Okay, so the baby Lambo’s unusually long lifespan has something to do with that. But that’s not the only reason. It simply looks as crisp, modern and desirable today ...

Used supercars guide: buying a Ferrari 575M

Used supercars guide: buying a Ferrari 575M

Rated 5 out of 55

Ferrari's 575 Maranello offers you thoroughbred 200mph performance in a truly usable everyday package – and it's now yours for £45k. CAR's spec and buying guide tells you what to watch out for if you're eyeing up a 575M of your very own. What's so special about the Ferrari 575M? Building on the much-loved 550M, Ferrari’s mid-life facelift of its muscly ...

Nissan GT-R Track Pack (2012) CAR review

Nissan GT-R Track Pack (2012) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Chris Chilton, 24 May 2012 08:59

This is the Nissan GT-R Track Pack, a stripped-down, pumped-up Japanese coupe with designs on the 911 GT3. A GT-R GT3? Isn’t what the Spec V was all about. The GT-R Spec V was certainly the hardcore GT-R, but it was also obscenely expensive – double the price of the standard car. The Track Pack only costs around £10k extra but still ...

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 ...

Jaguar XKR-S (2011) CAR review

Jaguar XKR-S (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 01 June 2011 00:01

The new XKR-S is Jag’s hottest XK yet, a 542bhp beast based on last year’s 75 anniversary special but with even more power. And this time it's got mouth as well as trousers. The front end of the XKR-S features a pair of gaping nostrils delivering air to the supercharged V8, and a black mouth that gives it a very ...

Lamborghini Aventador supercar (2011) CAR review

Lamborghini Aventador supercar (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 04 May 2011 17:30

Lamborghini’s new 691bhp/219mph/£247k Aventador supercar might look like a facelifted Murcielago, but it’s a radically different beast under the skin – and on the road. So what’s new on the new Lamborghini Aventador? The lot. The old Murcielago had some composite body panels but its chassis was a stack of old tubes that happened to stick together, just like the Diablo and ...

McLaren MP4-12C supercar (2011) CAR review

McLaren MP4-12C supercar (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 14 February 2011 00:01

Seventeen years after the iconic McLaren F1 made every other supercar redundant, McLaren is back with a new car: the long-awaited McLaren MP4-12C. Here’s a taste of what it’s like, but for our full review get yourself a copy of the March 2011 issue of CAR Magazine, which is on sale on Tuesday. For the benefit of that one moon dweller reading, ...

Jaguar XKR 75 (2010) CAR review

Jaguar XKR 75 (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 21 July 2010 09:45

The Jaguar XK120 was so-called because it did 120mph, the XJ220 because it did 220mph. And this is the XKR 75... So it must do 75mph! Some kind of economy special is it? We’ll have you know that this is the fastest Jaguar since the XJ220. Instead of the usual 155mph limiter, this one can run on to 174mph before ...

Ferrari 458 Italia (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 05 November 2009 00:01

Finding that Scuderia a bit spartan? Want the same kick but with a heap more refinement? The answer’s the replacement for the F430, the new 458 Italia. You can read the full story in CAR’s December 2009 issue out on 18 November:• Detailed nine-page 458 Italia first drive feature• Greg Pajo's beautiful photoshoot• Feel what it's like behind the wheel• ...
