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 ...

McLaren 12C Spider (2012) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 23 November 2012 12:15

As ‘my’ 12C sparkles in the Spanish sunshine it’s at first difficult to establish that this is the Spider. Rivals from Lambo and Audi favour fabric roofs, but, like key competitor Ferrari, the team from Woking has opted for a folding hardtop, so the 12C can be a roadster when the roof is down and look and feel like a ...

Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport (2011) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 17 March 2011 14:00

Obscure supercars come and go, each proclaiming to be faster than the Bugatti Veyron. Five years after driving the original Veyron, it's time to try this final evolution of the species, the Super Sport, a car that should secure Bugatti the ‘World’s Fastest’ title for some time. How has a standard Bugatti Veyron become a Bugatti Veyron Super Sport? By ...

Audi R8 GT (2010) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 12 November 2010 13:00

This is the Audi R8 GT, a lighter, more powerful (and thus faster) version of Ingolstadt’s finest supercar. Think of the GT as a Superleggera version of the R8, a car to take on the likes of the GT3 RS, M3 GTS, and of course, the real Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera. So is the Audi R8 GT essentially a German version ...

Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera (2010) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 06 August 2010 10:00

This is the Superleggera for short, or in full, the Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera, which sounds great when spoken quickly in Italian. Goes quickly too, thanks to a 562bhp V10 and a 1340kg kerbweight; do the maths and that’s 419bhp/tonne. Think of the Superleggera as Lamborghini’s response to the threat of RS Porsches (GT3 and GT2), a pre-emptive strike against ...

Porsche Boxster S (2009) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 10 December 2008 09:00

The Porsche Boxster was the car that saved Stuttgart. Near bankruptcy in the early 1990s, Porsche hit upon the idea of creating a cheap sports car, one that would use the front end of the then-new 911 (the 996) to cut costs. Okay, purists might have bemoaned the original Boxster’s dull looks (toned down from the 1993 concept) and the ...

Audi R8 V12 TDI Concept (2008) driven CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 10 April 2008 10:43

Does the world need the Audi R8 V12 TDI, a supercar powered by diesel? We love the regular Audi R8. It’s our 2007 performance car of the year, with sublime steering that belies its Ingolstadt roots, and one of the best gearboxes around. That high-revving 4.2-litre V8 sounds wonderful and the quattro system juggles all-weather security with rear bias for ...

Porsche 911 GT2 (2008) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 28 September 2007 05:17

Another yawnworthy 911? Or a yee-hah one? Definitely the latter. 911 Turbo not hard enough? Then how about removing the four-wheel drive, sir? Want to smash the magical 200mph barrier? Soak in the GT2's 204mph v-max and quake in your boots. Oh, and it has semi-slick Cup tyres too. Make no mistake, the GT2 isn't for fools. You won't miss ...

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 ...

Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera (2007) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 23 March 2007 09:56

What's so special about this evil-looking bit of kit? It's a harder, faster and lighter Lamborghini Gallardo, a kind of pre-emptive strike against the Ferrari F430 Challenge Stradale due for launch next year. Shorn of its hi-fi and fitted with thinner glass and more carbonfibre and less metal, the Superleggera weighs 1330kg, a soild 100kg less than the standard Gallardo. ...
