Audi A6 Allroad 3.0 BiTDi (2012) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 04 April 2013 09:30

Month 6 running an Audi A6 Allroad - the strange Audi service schedule explained No, I'm not supplementing my income with a bit of funeral directing on the side, the matching colours were simply coinicidence. The mini-me is my girlfriend’s 2004 A4 Avant TDI, pictured here to show the positive side of Audi’s sometimes painfully slow design evolution. Can you think ...

BMW i3 (2013) electric car test ride

3.5

Georg Kacher, 25 February 2013 09:00

BMW’s pioneering i3 electric car is one of the most exciting cars of 2013. It employs BMW’s trademark, sporty rear-wheel drive, which marks it out from the front-drive electric cars from Nissan and Renault. It’s a clean-sheet design, using exotic lightweight materials to save weight and maximise the electric range. So, an aluminium chassis housing the batteries and rear-mounted, 170bhp ...

Mercedes CLS250 CDI (2012) long-term test review

Ben Oliver, 20 January 2013 09:01

Mercedes CLS250 CDI goodbye - 17 January 2013 Well how wrong can you be about a car? Or its looks, anyway. When friends ask if you’ll drive them to their wedding, you know you have something pretty special – a car for the big day that you can drive every day. My Mercedes-Benz CLS250 CDI Sport didn’t feel that special ...

Audi SQ5 TDI (2012) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 15 October 2012 12:30

Super-fast diesels with four-rings on the nose are nothing new. The A8 and Q7 have featured rapid V8, and even V12, oil burners for years. But only now has Audi put together the underbonnet hardware to tackle BMW’s epic 35d engine in its volume mid-range cars. First sampled in the new A6 late last year, the 3.0-litre V6 bi-turbo instantly ...

Audi A7 3.0 TDI Quattro SE S tronic (2012) CAR review

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 05 July 2012 15:43

Seven years in the making, the largely flawless Audi A6’s only failing is that it seeks to appeal to the broadest possible customer spectrum by being so utterly anonymous that it is, frankly, almost too anonymous. A perfectly decent drive albeit, it’s far more of a technological tour de force than anything of a thrill to helm, having rifled the ...

Volkswagen Touareg 3.0 TDI (2012) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 22 May 2012 09:22

Is our VW Touareg 3.0 TDI good value? 22 May 2012 In another life, Rory Lumsdon, VW’s PR manager was a magazine sub editor tasked with polishing my road test words when we both worked at Autocar. Seems like old habits die hard, because after I’d mentioned the price difference between my V6 Touareg and our European ed, Georg Kacher’s, ...

Ford FPV Boss 335 GT (2012) CAR review

3.5

Ben Oliver, 07 May 2012 07:00

Ford’s Australian outpost has built its most powerful car ever: the Ford Performance Vehicles Boss 335 GT. That’s 335 kilowatts, by the way: 450bhp to you and me, from a supercharged five-litre V8 engine shoe-horned into the bodyshell of Ford’s standard, rear-wheel drive Falcon saloon. With a bonnet bulge the size of Uluru and that power output stencilled into its ...

Mercedes ML250 CDI BlueTec Sport (2012) CAR review

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 03 May 2012 05:28

Mercedes updated its M-class SUV in 2011, offering a fresh take on its Alabama-built 4x4 with new platform, styling and notably-downsized powertrains. Have they leapt to the head of the premium SUV class with the latest edition? Anthony ffrench-Constant evaluates the four-cylinder diesel ML250 Bluetec Sport to find out... Mercedes ML250 first impressions: Computer says no Speed Limit Assist? No thank ...

Audi A6 Allroad (2012) CAR review

3.5

Steve Moody, 03 April 2012 08:46

The new 2012 Audi A6 Allroad is an unusual brew of contradictions and adaptations. On the one hand, this model, now in its third iteration, is a darling of the Middle England red-trousered brigade, that most conservative of social sets. Yet it is effectively a blinged-up A6 Avant, with chrome plastered everywhere (hardly the best material for off-road work), hung ...

BMW 1-series M Coupe (2011) long-term test review

3.5

the CAR road test team, 22 March 2012 13:01

Starring on the small screen: our 1M video - 23 March 2012 Before Jethro Bovingdon departed the CAR offices, he recorded a lovely film about our long-term test BMW 1-series M Coupe. In all the to-ing and fro-ing of him leaving, we never got round to showing his video review of our favourite small long-termer on the fleet. Watch this ...
