Subaru BRZ (2012) CAR review

4.5

Ben Pulman, 28 March 2012 09:10

This is the new 2012 Subaru BRZ coupe. Developed in conjunction with Toyota (which will sell its version as the GT86, and as the Scion FR-S in the USA) it’s a rear-wheel drive sports car that does things a little differently… Rather than compensating for a lardy kerbweight with a powerful engine, and then fitting fat tyres to cope with ...

Audi Q3 2.0 TDI Quattro (2011) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 29 June 2011 09:09

This is the new Audi Q3, Ingolstadt’s rival for the BMW X1 and the forthcoming Range Rover Evoque. It’s the smallest Q-series 4x4 yet from Audi, and (at least initially) is only available with a selection of 2.0-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged and direct-injection engines. Items like an aluminium bonnet and aluminium bootlid are 50% lighter than the conventional steel items, there ...

BMW X1 xDrive20d (2009) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 25 September 2009 23:00

The new BMW X1 is the German car giant’s fourth addition to its 4x4 range, so although the original X5 might have been beaten to market by Mercedes’ M-class, since then the company has always been one SUV step ahead of its homeland rivals. The X3 was launched in 2004, but Mercedes and Audi have only recently launched the GLK ...

Lotus 2-Eleven (2009) n/a CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 26 January 2009 11:39

The Government hates the car, and whether that’s true (or whether they just like taxing the motorist), there’s no getting away from the fact that life on the road can be pretty hard. So we need to escape, yet supercars are big and unpractical and out of the reach of almost all of us. Thus the track car came into ...

Audi Q5 2.0 TDI (2008) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 10 July 2008 18:23

The Audi Q5 is here – and we've driven it. Finally Ingolstadt has a medium-sized SUV with which to battle the likes of the BMW X3 and Mercedes GLK. But in the war of the small, premium Germans 4x4s, the X3 is ageing fast and the GLK won’t be in the UK until 2010 at the earliest. That leaves the ...

Audi TT 2.0 TDI (2008) driven CAR review

2.5

Ben Pulman, 29 April 2008 16:17

The Audi TT TDI. Is this oil-burner from Audi another Ingolstadt niche? Or a svelte coupe and cabriolet with low-end grunt, low emissions and decent fuel consumption? A few critics of Audi's blunderbuss new model programme worry it's another box ticked so the company can out-offer the opposition. And worse than that, perhaps Audi is offering something no one really ...

Citroen C6 2.2 HDi (2007) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 23 August 2007 11:52

A big Citroen saloon? Surely they’ve learnt by now that these don’t sell... Apparently not, but when you have a heritage as rich and idiosyncratic as the DS, SM and CX then perhaps you’ll never learn. Then again, economies of scale with sister company Peugeot’s 607 no doubt help as well, and if you don’t sell many, at least the ...
