Porsche Cayenne Diesel (2011) CAR review

3.5

Tim Pollard, 16 August 2011 09:00

The Cayenne is the Porsche we all loved to hate. But is the Cayenne SUV now firmly accepted in the Porsche firmamentr? After all, most now understand the well worn argument that it funds the sports cars we all love. Porsche has built twice as many 4x4s as any other single model line so far this year, for crying out loud. So ...

Cadillac SRX 3.0 (2010) CAR review

Tim Pollard, 25 October 2010 13:46

The Cadillac SRX is likely to be the biggest seller in the Americans' relaunched range of cars for Europe. It's a crossover sized around the Volvo XC90, but this time round the new Caddy SRX has just two rows of seats; they've listened to criticism of the last SRX (which sported seven seats in three rows) and tried to make ...

Infiniti EX30d (2010) new CAR review

3.5

Tim Pollard, 11 August 2010 12:33

Infiniti is finally catching up with the demands of European buyers, busily fitting diesel engines across its range. So the compact EX crossover, the smallest of its 4x4s, now comes as an EX30d. There's no Germanic badge trickery at play here: this is indeed an EX powered by a 3.0-litre diesel. How refreshing. While EX prices start at £35,975 in ...

Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid (2010) CAR review

Tim Pollard, 18 June 2009 13:00

You know a car is long awaited when it’s given an entire engine transplant before it’s even been launched. CAR first rode in the new Porsche Cayenne Hybrid back in July 2007. Two years later, it’s still not on sale and now it’s been transformed from a 3.6 V6 into the Cayenne S Hybrid toting Audi’s new 3.0-litre supercharged V6. ...

Vauxhall VXR8 Bathurst S (2009) CAR review

3.5

Tim Pollard, 07 May 2009 16:06

If any car has a claim to be the spiritual successor to the knockout Lotus Carlton, it’s the new Vauxhall VXR8 Bathurst S special edition. GM’s back might be firmly up against the wall as it struggles to reinvent itself in a global recession, but the Bathurst S shows its Australian and European divisions still know how to serve up ...

Audi S5 7-speed S-tronic (2008) CAR review

3.5

Tim Pollard, 03 June 2008 15:30

Audi has just about the most bewildering array of transmissions of any car maker – and it’s about to get more confusing, with the launch of a twin-clutch version of the S5 coupe. We’ve just driven the seven-speed S tronic S5 to bring you this first CAR review. Across its burgeoning range, Ingolstadt now offers manual transmissions, Tiptronic automatics, CVT ...

Vauxhall VXR8 Supercharged (2007) CAR review

Tim Pollard, 16 October 2007 12:41

So Vauxhall reckons the VXR8 isn't fast enough? You got it in one. Vauxhall's UK performance arm VXR (sister division to the Continentals' OPC Opel brand) is becoming seemingly more power-crazed by the day. It's all very out of keeping with the caring, sharing zeitgeist - think tarmac-rubbing spoilers, lairy exhausts and horsepower adulation. VXR's staple diet is the hot ...
