BMW M550d xDrive (2012) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 01 March 2012 11:30

This is the BMW M550d xDrive. It's the first of a new line of BMW M Performance Automobiles, set to sit above the bodykit and suspension-focused M Sport models, but below the full M-cars. But rather than sporting some sort of detuned M5 engine, this M550d xDrive has a diesel engine (albeit a triple turbo one), four-wheel drive and an automatic gearbox. ...

Mercedes E63 AMG (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 05 July 2009 00:01

The new E63 is Merc’s AMG-powered middleweight and follows a tried and tested plan: big V8 + sober saloon = autobahn domination. Well that’s the theory, and this is the reality. So this week it’s the E-class’ turn to have a go with the 6.2-litre V8? Yes, Mercedes likes to spread the bhp love around and so it’s no surprise ...

Porsche 911 Carrera PDK (2008) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Chris Chilton, 13 June 2008 07:33

Same-again styling hides some great technical innovations on the facelifted, second-generation 997, Porsche 911. With a new range of direct-injection petrol engines and clever seven-speed dual-clutch gearboxes, the 911 has overnight become one of the world’s cleanest high-performance cars. Once again CAR was first to drive the new 911, so read our first drive road test review here.  So Porsche bills ...

Mercedes CLK63 AMG (2006) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Chris Chilton, 26 July 2006 12:06

Another manic Merc? So how many squillion horsepower does this one have? It's not the car that's important, more what's changed under the bonnet. This is our first taste of a road car powered by AMG's new naturally aspirated 6.3-litre V8. It's the company's first ever ground up engine (the others having all been based on existing Benz motors) and ...

Jaguar XK8 Coupe (2006) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Chris Chilton, 21 July 2006 07:10

Jag XK? Looks like a re-badged Aston DB9 to me! You're excused. The new XK is the work of Ian Callum, the man responsible for DBs 7 and 9. After a slightly acrimonious departure from Gaydon he decided to make the best-looking Jag coupe he could. There wasn't much wrong with the old XK - not in 1996 at least. ...
