Peugeot 308 GT THP 200 (2011) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 13 May 2011 10:29

‘In these modern times where comfort and convenience are becoming more important than ultimate performance, the Peugeot 308 GT THP 200 ticks all the boxes,’ says the worrying press release. So did Peugeot itself once again choose not to affix the i after G and T? Or did the i refuse to get involved point blank once it had seen ...

Peugeot RCZ 200 (2011) CAR review

2.5

Chris Chilton, 18 March 2011 14:00

Peugeot’s brilliant RCZ coupe couldn’t quite topple the VW Scirocco and Audi TT when we tested the trio last year in diesel form. Now we’ve tried the 197bhp petrol RCZ 200 to see if it’s good enough to be the coupe of choice. 197bhp, you say? Has the Peugeot RCZ 200 bought in a load of hot Clio engines from arch rival ...

VW Passat 2.0 TDI 170 Sport (2010) review

2.5

Chris Chilton, 05 November 2010 09:12

Volkswagen says the new 2011 Passat takes… Actually, can I just interrupt you there to say the Passat Mk7 isn't new, it’s a bloody facelift. New lights, new grille, Bob ist ihr onkel. Okay, so the new, seventh-gen VW Passat does use the same platform as the 2006 car, but Volkswagen claims that every panel is new. But it manages to look almost ...

Audi A1 1.2 TFSI SE (2010) CAR review

2.5

Chris Chilton, 18 June 2010 09:55

As promised we’ve got our hands on a different Audi A1 model, the most basic car I could find on the launch: a 1.2 manual. This being a press launch of course, it still had sat-nav and 16s rather than the standard 15in alloys plus various other options, but this is almost the £13,145 bottom rung on the Audi ladder. ...

Audi A4 Allroad 3.0 TDI (2009) CAR review

2.5

Chris Chilton, 22 April 2009 10:36

Audi has given the latest A4 Avant the Allroad treatment by raising the ride height and adding some butch cladding. But is it just a load of marketing rubbish? And why wouldn’t you have a Q5? What’s involved in turning an Audi A4 Avant into an Allroad? It’s essentially the same trick Audi began using on the A6 nearly a ...

Ford Fiesta Zetec-S Mountune (2009) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 23 March 2009 11:47

Ford's brilliant new Fiesta only has one problem – the lack of an ST model. Actually the real problem is that there isn’t one coming – Ford canned it to concentrate on green cars like the Fiesta Econetic. I’m sure Ford has done its sums but given how many of the old-shape STs you see charging around Britain’s towns, it ...

Mercedes E250 CDI (2009) CAR review

2.5

Chris Chilton, 16 March 2009 09:23

Mercedes' all-new E-class has a tough job on its hands. Throughout the '60s, '70s and '80s Mercedes dominated the medium-sized executive saloon market with cars like the W123 and W124. Cars so tough that you regularly still see them working hard for a living around the world. But then build quality disappeared, the styling became bland and the magic faded. ...

Mercedes CLS320 CDI facelift (2008) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 24 April 2008 10:01

It’s facelift time for Merc’s banana-shaped CLS, a coupe/saloon crossover based on the dull old E-class. It hasn’t been around for long so there are no big changes for this mid-life refresh, just minor cosmetic tweaks to keep it looking contemporary in a line-up of newer Benz products. So guide me through the headline stuff for the Mercedes CLS320 CDI ...

Subaru Impreza RB320 CAR review

2.5

Chris Chilton, 26 April 2007 08:13

Another special edition Impreza. We must be into three figures by now Probably. This one’s the RB320, built as a tribute to the late former WRC champ Richard Burns who died in 2005, hence the RB in the name. The 320 bit refers to the output in bhp and also the production run. A tribute! It looks fantastic but it’s ...

Toyota Hilux D-4D 170 (2007) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 05 April 2007 09:42

I thought this was CAR? Looks more like a truck to me. A truck it is and it’s here on CARonline because the British tax loophole is closing up. For the past five years or so sales in commercial vehicles have boomed in the UK as company car drivers took advantage of the special dispensation given to pick-ups and vans. ...
