BMW 125i Convertible (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Richard Aucock, 29 January 2008 12:53

BMW teased us with the 1-series concept back in 2002. Remember the CS1, a stubby two-door drop-top, with flame surfacing fanning the flames of controversy? The BMW firewall, roasted by a million e-mails calling for Chris Bangle’s head, certainly does. It’s perhaps no coincidence that BMW has taken six years – six years! – to put that iteration into production. ...

Cadillac CTS 3.6 V6 (2007) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

What’s this? A Cadillac I like the look of? What’s going on? Strange things indeed.

The 123d, benefiting from BMW’s sequential twin turbo technology already seen on the 535d, boosts this 2.0-litre four ...

Saab 9-3 1.9 TTiD 180 (2007) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Richard Aucock, 18 June 2007 03:02

How new is this 'new' 9-3? Saab has made 2157 changes in facelifting its 3-series rival, rendering the 9-3 almost completely distinct from its Vectra platform. Or so says Saab. The nose is the most striking aspect; it’s all-new from the A-pillars forward, and its clamshell bonnet and perma-lit ‘eyebrow’ headlight strips lend it some presence. The side profile has ...
