Mercedes G63 AMG (2012) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 22 May 2012 09:29

AMG has dropped its new bi-turbo V8 into the boxy old G-class to transform the G55 into the even more powerful G63 AMG. It’s certainly rapid, but don’t cancel that Cayenne Turbo order just yet More power for the 2012 Mercedes G63 AMG... I’m pretty sure that probably wouldn’t be high on the to-do list of anybody who’s ever driven ...

Mercedes SL63 AMG (2012) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 09 May 2012 10:44

After a few years on the naturally-aspirated temperance wagon, the AMG-fettled SL V8 is back on the boost, with a downsized twin-turbo engine and all-new aluminium clothes. Read on for CAR Magazine's first drive review of the new 2012 Merc SL63 AMG. So the orginal SL55 was powered by a supercharged 5.5, and the outgoing SL63 by a naturally aspirated ...

Ferrari California Handling Speciale (2012) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 19 April 2012 09:00

Ferrari has revised its entry-level car, the front-engined and folding-hardtop California, stripping out weight, adding power and introducing an optional handling package. Pass me the electron microscope, I’m struggling to see the difference between this revised Ferrari California and the one you drove back in 2009... Forget the microscope, it’s an x-ray machine you need because the important mods are all beneath the ...

Jaguar XKR-S Convertible (2012) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 08 February 2012 10:00

This is the Jaguar XKR-S Convertible, a 542bhp drop-top with a £100,000-plus price. A Jaguar XKR-S Convertible? Sounds a bit wrong to me. Can you imagine Porsche doing a GT3 cabrio? No, but then the XKR-S coupe and GT3 are very different cars, whatever the Jag’s fighty face and mighty figures suggest. The Porsche is, was and always will be, a trackday ...

Ferrari 458 Spider (2011) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 05 October 2011 12:50

CAR has driven the new Ferrari 458 Spider for a special 12-page feature in the new November 2011 issue of CAR out on 19 October. Read on for our first drive review of the new 458 Spider supercar - and don't miss the new issue of CAR for our full photoshoot and amazing drive story. Coupe cabrios? Aren’t they all ...

Jaguar XKR-S (2011) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 01 June 2011 00:01

The new XKR-S is Jag’s hottest XK yet, a 542bhp beast based on last year’s 75 anniversary special but with even more power. And this time it's got mouth as well as trousers. The front end of the XKR-S features a pair of gaping nostrils delivering air to the supercharged V8, and a black mouth that gives it a very ...

Lamborghini Aventador supercar (2011) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 04 May 2011 17:30

Lamborghini’s new 691bhp/219mph/£247k Aventador supercar might look like a facelifted Murcielago, but it’s a radically different beast under the skin – and on the road. So what’s new on the new Lamborghini Aventador? The lot. The old Murcielago had some composite body panels but its chassis was a stack of old tubes that happened to stick together, just like the Diablo and ...

Audi R8 LMS (2011) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 26 April 2011 11:05

This is the race version of Audi's R8 V10 and R8 GT supercars, the R8 LMS. Audi scooped a load of silverware in 2009 with these cars and added a class win in the Nurburging 24hrs covered in Phoenix Racing livery. For the 2010 season the Audi R8 LMS was been updated with tweaks to the suspension, gearbox and cooling system. How does ...

Porsche 911 Sport Classic (2011) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 20 April 2011 09:30

Let’s clear one thing up right now before anyone makes a very incorrect assumption. Despite the presence of that evocative ducktail rear spoiler, retro Fuchs-style wheels and a bile-raising reference in the press material to the 911 Sport Classic being the grandson of the legendary 1973 Carrera RS 2.7, the two are distant cousins at best. The Carrera RS was ...

McLaren MP4-12C supercar (2011) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 14 February 2011 00:01

Seventeen years after the iconic McLaren F1 made every other supercar redundant, McLaren is back with a new car: the long-awaited McLaren MP4-12C. Here’s a taste of what it’s like, but for our full review get yourself a copy of the March 2011 issue of CAR Magazine, which is on sale on Tuesday. For the benefit of that one moon dweller reading, ...
