Porsche Cayman S (2013) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 12 February 2013 12:30

The new ‘981-generation’ Porsche Cayman S is 30kg lighter than the outgoing model, 5bhp more powerful, and boasts same the classy interior as its soft-top Boxster sibling. Is it still the £40-50k sports car benchmark? Porsche Cayman S: the spec The new Cayman is bigger than before: its wheelbase is 60mm longer, and it now rides on 19-inch rims as ...

Audi RS4 Avant (2012) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 08 August 2012 11:32

The old RS2 – based on the Audi 80 and co-developed by Porsche – was such a big deal, in fact, that you could be forgiven for wondering how far we’ve actually come in arriving at 2012’s RS4. A 0.1sec improvement in 0-62mph acceleration and a 11mph gain in top speed (if the RS4 is unlimited)? At a glance, that’s ...

Mercedes C63 AMG Coupe (2011) CAR review

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 ...

VW Touareg 3.0 Hybrid (2010) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 02 August 2010 13:52

When the original Mk1 VW Touareg was released in 2002, CAR Magazine drove it across North Africa and even let the real Tuareg tribespeople have a go in it across the Sahara. Now our own Georg Kacher has had a go in the latest hybrid version. 4x4=bad, but hybrid 4x4=good? This is the first VW to use the same hybrid technology as the Porsche Cayenne. The big VW ...

Artega GT (2008) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 09 September 2008 09:50

The new Artega GT is a Porsche Cayman S rival at 911 money from a brand new German manufacturer. Delusions of grandeur? Perhaps not, because the chief advisor to the project is Karlheinz Kalbfell, an ex-BMW man who helped launch Mini and Rolls-Royce under German ownership, before moving onto Alfa and Maserati. And the VW Group supplies the engine and ...

Infiniti FX50 CAR (2008) review

Georg Kacher, 05 May 2008 14:21

The Infiniti FX50 will be the upmarket Japanese brand’s most expensive car when the company launches into Europe in autumn 2008. At an estimated £50k and with big 4x4s about as popular as a Cadbury's teapot right now, it’s a brave move. Don't forget, Infiniti isn’t aimed at the conservative luxury market like Lexus. Instead Nissan’s luxury brand is targeting ...

Mercedes C63 AMG (2007) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 27 August 2007 09:57

So this is Merc’s answer to the new BMW M3... Got it. Hot C's have long been part of Mercedes' line-up, but none has had us quite as excited as this, the C63 which as the name suggests, gets the big 6.3-litre V8 from the car right at the top of Merc's range, the CL63. It’s worth pointing out that ...
