Mercedes ML63 AMG (2012) CAR review

Mercedes ML63 AMG (2012) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Jed Maxwell, 18 January 2012 10:00

Mercedes claims to have invented the original performance 4x4 with its ML55 AMG in 1999. This Mercedes ML63 AMG is the third generation of the German firm’s hot off-roader and, despite the eye-watering fuel consumption and price tag, its predecessors have gained a loyal following with more than 24,000 leaving showrooms. The new Mercedes ML63 AMG goes on sale inthe UK July ...

Georg Kacher, 29 March 2011 09:00

It's been three years since former Aston Martin designer Henrik Fisker displayed his Fisker Karma plug-in hybrid concept car, and with full production looming in 2012 CAR has now tried a pre-production Karma at Fontana Raceway near Fisker's headquarters in Irvine, California. Read on for CAR's first drive review of the new Fisker Karma. Why has it taken three years ...

Mercedes G350 Bluetec LWB (2011) CAR review

Mercedes G350 Bluetec LWB (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 25 February 2011 09:00

This big beast is the Mercedes G-wagen, and after a decade-long absence from the UK it’s back sale on in Blighty – and in right-hand drive form. You can’t just walk into any Mercedes-Benz dealer and buy one though; orders have to be placed with the Specialist Product Division at Mercedes-Benz World at Brooklands, the same team that brought us ...

Jaguar XJ Supersport (2010) CAR review

Jaguar XJ Supersport (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Phil McNamara, 20 April 2010 10:36

The Supersport is the cream on top of Jaguar’s new XJ range for 2010. The supercharged V8-powered limousine is the flagship, a full-fat experience in which only 5% of XJ customers will indulge. How does the £87,455, ultimate version of Britain’s S-class drive? That’s not a Jag XJ, that’s a Citroen concept car! Whatever happened to drawing rooms on wheels? ...

Maserati Granturismo S Automatic (2009) CAR review

Maserati Granturismo S Automatic (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Tim Pollard, 09 May 2009 09:16

Maserati’s Granturismo has always tugged at our heartstrings, but it’s been hamstrung by an incomplete line-up of engines and transmissions. Not any more. We’ve just driven the final model to complete the Granturismo range – the new S Automatic. That means the marriage of the enlarged 4.7-litre V8 to the full torque converter auto gearbox.What it does at a stroke ...

BMW M6 Competition Package (2009) CAR review

BMW M6 Competition Package (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 05 March 2009 10:00

The M6 came out aeons ago (well, 2005), so BMW has seen fit to give it a refresh with the optional Competition Package, a collection of enhancements that ups the M6’s £83,700 sticker price by £2135. For that you get uprated suspension that’s 12mm lower at the front and 10mm lower at the rear. There are also more lenient stability ...

BMW M6 (2008) CAR review

BMW M6 (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 31 December 2008 14:11

It might be hard to imagine, but back when the BMW M6 was launched in 2005, CAR Online wasn’t actually around. Hence the BMW M6 not being previously reviewed on this site. But in the name of being comprehensive – and for the sake of driving what’s sure to be an epic car – we thought we’d right that wrong. ...

Porsche 911 Targa 4S (2008) CAR review

Porsche 911 Targa 4S (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Adam Towler, 25 September 2008 08:10

Porsche’s 'Targa' moniker has been applied to open-air 911s since the late 1960s, and now with the latest version complementing the recently launched coupe and convertible models, it completes Porsche’s visually subtle but mechanically thorough overhaul of the 911 armada. We now awaited the Turbo and GT variants... So, this Targa's basically a new Porsche 911 with a big sunroof then? Well, ...

Maserati Quattroporte S (2009) CAR review and video

Maserati Quattroporte S (2009) CAR review and video

Rated 4 out of 54

Kyle Fortune, 10 July 2008 09:20

Maserati's been busy; only a few months after it launched the Granturismo S, it’s now given us a revised and facelifted Quattroporte. Always one of the best-looking four-door cars around, sensibly Maserati has kept the visual tweaks to a minimum.  So what is new on the 'new' Maserati Quattroporte? They've followed the facelift rulebook to the letter, changing the front ...

Aston Martin V8 Vantage Coupe (2008) CAR review

Aston Martin V8 Vantage Coupe (2008) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Barry, 22 May 2008 16:57

It might look exactly the same, but there's a new 4.7-litre V8 in this Aston Martin Vantage. The suspension, steering, interior and transmission  of the V8 Vantage has also been significantly revised. The revisions push the V8 Vantage’s price from £83,000 to £85,000. This new Aston Martin V8 Vantage still looks the same to me. If you’ve already got a ...
