Mercedes CLS250 CDI (2012) long-term test review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Oliver, 30 January 2012 11:45

Welcome to our new Mercedes-Benz CLS 250 CDI long-termer - 30 January 2012 Welcome to the new luxury. The Mercedes-Benz CLS250 CDI is an elite car for humbler times. It’s a coupe that offers each occupant a door, rather than making rear-seat passengers feel like second-class citizens, and is powered by a small, efficient, clean diesel engine when for a ...

Lexus GS450h F Sport (2012) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 19 December 2011 10:47

This is the fourth generation Lexus GS, but it’s not about to take on the hegemony of Audi, BMW and Mercedes in Europe as there are still no plans for a four-cylinder diesel. There /is/ a new 2.5-litre V6 petrol but, officially, it’s dirtier and less fuel efficient than the headline-grabbing hybrid version, the GS450h. It’s the hybrid we’ve tested ...

Mercedes C63 AMG Coupe (2011) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Georg Kacher, 05 August 2011 09:00

First, some history. AMG has been updating and upgrading mid-size two-door Mercs for much longer thank you might think. The go-faster business began in the late 1970s with the W123 range – it came in three different AMG tuning stages, from the humble 2.3-litre four, past a 2.8-litre six, to the mighty 5.0-litre V8. However, it was not until 2001 that AMG stopped ...

BMW 640i Coupe (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Jethro Bovingdon, 14 July 2011 11:08

Hardened BMW fans (I’d put myself under that umbrella) might still be coming to terms with cars like the X6 and X1, but huge sales figures render our furrowed brows rather irrelevant. Even so, it’s nice to be reporting on a niche BMW that’s not a quasi off-roader. In fact the new 6-Series should keep traditionalists very happy. Based on ...

Audi RS5 (2011) long-term test review

Rated 3 out of 53

the CAR road test team, 27 June 2011 10:00

Converted to the RS5 cause – 27 June 2011 What on earth is Ben Pulman and the rest of the office on? Glance through the comments below and you'd think none of us like the Audi RS5. Nothing could be further from the truth. Fact is, the RS5 has rather split opinion. Those with the words 'road tester' somewhere on their ...

Lotus Evora IPS auto (2011) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Tim Pollard, 22 June 2011 12:00

The new Lotus Evora IPS has a very simple mission in life. New Lotus management are busy patching up their product range to expand Hethel’s footprint around the world – and much of the world prefers their cars to be automatics. Buyers in America and Asia, in particular, are likely to pick the two-pedal option, and Lotus predicts the new ...

Porsche Cayman R (2011) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Tim Pollard, 15 April 2011 07:00

Let me declare an interest. I have a serious fixation with the Porsche Cayman. Forget your 911s or supercars – the Cayman is what I trot out when I’m often asked what is my dream car. I just struggle to see how I’d want more power, more speed, more handling delicacy – or expense – in my life than the ...

Porsche Cayman R PDK (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 24 February 2011 13:00

CAR's just driven the new Porsche Cayman R, the third addition to Porsche’s mid-engined coupe range to sit above the Cayman and Cayman S. There’s a whole host of weight-saving measures (some welcome, some not), more power, and a serious set of chassis tweaks. It should be the best Porsche Cayman yet – read on for CAR’s first drive review. What ...

Lotus Evora S (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 01 November 2010 16:31

This is the new Lotus Evora S, and with the help of a supercharger, its 3.5-litre V6 has been boosted from the standard Evora’s 276bhp and 252lb ft, to 345bhp and 295lb ft. Enough, Lotus hopes, to shake off criticism that the Evora just isn’t quick enough; it’s that car’s only real fault, so has the extra power turned the ...

Lexus IS-F (2010) new CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Tim Pollard, 18 October 2010 09:33

Now here’s a leftfield choice if ever there was one. The Lexus IS-F is a pleasingly alternative performance saloon and one that’s consequently rare as hen’s teeth viewed alongside the BMW M3, Mercedes C63 AMG and Audi (R)S4 set. Is its scarcity justified? We've just driven the 2010 IS-F ahead of a modest facelift for the 2011 model year. Cosmetically, ...
