Vauxhall Cascada Elite 2.0 CDTi (2013) CAR review

3.5

Ollie Kew, 23 May 2013 11:00

The Vauxhall Cascada is a two-door, four-seat soft-top pitched against the Audi A5 Cabriolet. Underneath the skin there are bits of Astra hatchback and Insignia saloon, but the Cascada looks altogether classier than run-of-the-mill Vauxhalls. In a class dominated by image and brand cachet over driving dynamics, can the Cascada cut it? We drove the 2.0-litre CDTi diesel in range-topping Elite ...

Vauxhall Adam Slam 1.4 (2013) UK CAR review

Ollie Kew, 01 May 2013 11:00

CAR first drove the Vauxhall Adam earlier this year, but that was a European-spec car on Portugese roads. The Adam copped a lot of stick for its ride and handling – which Vauxhall promised would be retuned for discerning British tastes (and shoddy British roads) on UK models. We’ve driven the sporty 1.4 ‘Slam’ model to see if the changes ...

Vauxhall Mokka 1.7 CDTI (2013) CAR review

2.5

Ollie Kew, 16 April 2013 12:30

Vauxhall’s new Mokka crossover doesn’t directly rival jacked-up superminis like the Nissan Juke or new Renault Captur, nor fully-fledged family tools like Nissan’s popular Qashqai or the likeable Skoda Yeti. The Mokka splits them on size, space and price, but does that leave it falling between two stools, or as the best of both worlds? Read on for the CAR ...

Vauxhall Adam 1.4 (2013) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 08 November 2012 09:00

Vauxhall has just launched the new Adam city car, GM Europe's take on the Fiat 500 and Mini quasi-premium city car set. Here's our first drive review of the new 2013 Vauxhall Adam. With a name like that, it's all about being bold, funky and different - and trying just a little bit too hard if you ask us. Adam ...

Vauxhall Astra VXR (2012) CAR review

Ben Barry, 11 June 2012 12:00

There are some pretty serious operators in the hot-hatch business right now, and this is Vauxhall’s answer: the new 2012 Astra VXR. It’s based on the extremely good Astra GTC, but ups the ante considerably with 276bhp and 295lb ft torque. More details of the 2012 Vauxhall Astra VXR, please… The VXR uses an all-alloy – the outgoing car had ...

Vauxhall Zafira Tourer 2.0 CDTi 130 (2011) CAR review

3.5

Tim Pollard, 06 October 2011 18:00

Vauxhall is replacing the Zafira with the new Zafira Tourer - and it also isn't. Eh? What's with the new Vauxhall Zafira Tourer? Well, the new Zafira Tourer you see here will be in addition to today's Zafira MPV. Rather like Renault with the Clio, Vauxhall plans to sell both old and new concurrently. The thinking is it'll give GM a ...

Vauxhall Corsa 1.4 SE (2011) CAR review

2.5

Ben Pulman, 26 May 2011 09:30

Vauxhall's Corsa is oft forgotten as Ford's Fiesta is a sweeter drive, the cabin quality of Volkswagen's Polo is peerless, and the likes of Hyundai offer better value and better warranties – hence the reason Vauxhall launched its 100,000-mile warranty last year to compete with Koreans. However, while the Fiesta topped the UK sales chart in 2010 (103,013 sold), the Corsa was ...

Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer 1.4T (2011) CAR review

Ben Barry, 29 March 2011 11:30

This is the Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer, the big-booted version of the Griffin's family hatch. It's the second Astra model (joining the five-door hatch) while there's also a three-door GTC on the way later in 2011. Read on for CAR's first drive review of the new Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer. Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer – an Opel in all but brandname? ...

Vauxhall Ampera E-REV (2012) CAR video review

Vauxhall Meriva 1.4T SE (2010) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 13 April 2010 14:32

The last Vauxhall Meriva was a charmless, if effective, little box. The new one looks great, but is there more substance to it than those rear suicide doors? Is this the first mini MPV that you’re not embarrassed to be seen in? Could well be. We thought that Kia’s Venga (or at least the show car that previewed it) was ...
