Ford Focus ST (2013) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 23 May 2013 09:00

Month 3 running a Ford Focus ST: should the ST have four-wheel drive? Interesting one, , this: Ford won’t sell you the punchiest diesel Kuga SUV in front-wheel-drive guise, instead ensuring that its 251lb ft of torque flows through all four tyres. But our Focus ST channels 265lb ft through the front wheels alone, with none of the trick limited-slip ...

Range Rover Evoque (2012) long-term test review

2.5

the CAR road test team, 26 April 2013 09:30

Month 10 running a Range Rover Evaoue: thoughts on the Evoque's cabin What’s the inside story on the Evoque? Plump for the coupe, and you pay £1000 more than for the five-door and get two fewer doors. If you need frequent access to the rear, the glacial motorised slide of the front seats could drive you potty, and squeezing through ...

Hyundai i40 Tourer 1.7 CRDi (2012) long-term test review

2.5

the CAR road test team, 01 January 2013 01:00

Final report on the i40 - 31 December 2012 The greatest weakness of our long-term test Hyundai is revealed when it’s time to say goodbye: I’m not going to miss it. That seems cruel, almost like saying you’re not going to miss Barney the black Labrador, who gave so many year’s faithful service – just bury him at the bottom of ...

Alfa Romeo Giulietta Cloverleaf (2011) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 25 October 2011 09:30

Talking Italian - 25 October 2011 It’s only three little words, but they mean so much. Don’t worry, I’ve not been reading Barbara Cartland (again) – it’s the words ‘Benzina’, ‘Acqua’ and ‘Giri’ on my Giulietta’s instrument binnacles. That’s petrol, water and revs, if you haven’t worked it out already. Get in a German, French and Japanese car and any ...

Audi A8 4.2 TDI (2010) long-term test review

2.5

the CAR road test team, 15 May 2011 10:00

The definition of agility – 15 July 2011 Phew. Breathless drive last night in our leviathan A8 4.2 TDI leaves me marvelling at the strange mysteries of dynamic scale. I’ll let you into a wee secret: myself and the editor had a slight disagreement the other day about the word ‘agility’. We wanted to get across the fact that the Alfa ...

Skoda Yeti 2.0 TDI SE (2010) long-term test review

2.5

the CAR road test team, 09 May 2011 10:31

Farewell to our Skoda Yeti - 9 May 2011 Our Skoda Yeti went back a short while ago, so we've had ample time to reflect on its time with us. In short, we're all sorry to see it go. Skoda has been on a roll for a while and the Yeti represents the best of new Skoda: a bold product ...

Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE long-term test review

2.5

the CAR road test team, 13 August 2010 09:38

Long-term update - 13 August 2010 If you’ve been reading the magazine updates, you’ll know that we’ve had a few electrical problems with the Range Sport: going in to limp home mode, telling me the gearbox was broken, electric windows going a bit haywire to name but a few. It turned out that Land Rover had issued a recall to fix various ...

Toyota Prius long-term test review (2010)

2.5

the CAR road test team, 23 July 2010 08:58

Long-term test update – 23 July 2010 Breaking news: just filled the Prius after my best-possible-behaviour tankful of obeying all speed limits and using minimal throttle openings during a mix of mainly motorway and rural A-road driving, with a smattering of urban pottering. Result? 56.34mpg. Somewhat better than my normal low 40s mpg, still someway off the claimed 70mpg. I also got ...

Citroen C3 1.6 HDI Exclusive long-term test review

2.5

the CAR road test team, 21 July 2010 09:26

21 July 2010 – The Citroën C3 Your friendly Citroën dealer will tell you all about the amazing ‘rollover’ windscreen on the C3. It’s a truly epic bit of recalibration of the glass/bodywork relationship, bringing a whole lot more sunshine into your life. All you have to do is manually retract the front bit of the rooflining and hey presto, ...

Toyota Avensis 2.2 D4-D Tourer long-term test review

2.5

the CAR road test team, 04 June 2009 10:41

Long-term test update – 4 June 2009 It’s not meant to be ironic, but I suppose it is: a picture of the Toyota Avensis, lined up on the grid at Goodwood with the other Wacky Racers, from the feature in the latest July 2009 issue of CAR Magazine. Can you imagine a less *wacky* car to drive to a photoshoot ...
