Ford Focus 1.0-litre Ecoboost (2012) CAR review

4.5

Phil McNamara, 10 February 2012 12:15

A Ford Focus with a 1.0-litre engine! Isn’t that like getting Charles Hawtrey to compete for World’s Strongest Man, or sending Samson into battle after a crewcut? In one of the most extreme downsizing examples yet, Ford has plumbed an all-new, turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine into its family hatch, all 1270 kilos of it in previously lightest trim. The 1.0-litre ...

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 ...

BMW M5 (2012) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 07 February 2012 07:55

Winter tyres on our BMW M5 - 7 February 2012 Watch just about any news update on the travel chaos caused by snow in the UK and the chances are you’ll see a BMW sitting there spinning its rear tyres and slithering across the carriageway. But my M5 long-termer has been fitted with 19-inch Pirelli Sottozero winter tyres, so I ...

Audi A1 1.6 TDI S-line (2011) long-term test review

Sarah-Jayne Harrison, 06 February 2012 09:40

Rear headroom in the Audi A1, or lack of it - 6 February 2012 The A1 has a lovely sleek design and is a good-looking supermini. On that, we all agree. However it does possess one small flaw in its design - namely rear headroom. Not a problem for me, if I were to ever sit in the back seats, but my ...

Infiniti M35h hybrid (2011) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 02 February 2012 20:32

Winter tyres for our Infiniti M35h hybrid - 2 February 2012 You might have seen in the new February 2012 issue of CAR Magazine that we succumbed to the winter tyre craze for our M. There's still only a handful of Infiniti dealerships in the UK (another five open up this year) so we were directed to the Infiniti Centre in ...

Fiat Panda 0.9 TwinAir (2012) CAR review

Phil McNamara, 27 January 2012 11:03

This is Fiat’s third-generation Panda, which goes on UK sale in February 2012. Fiat has buffed up interior quality and features over the outgoing car’s, and plumbed in the TwinAir two-cylinder turbo engine, which was the version we drove. This being a city car and us being CAR magazine, we perversely took the Panda as far from its natural habitat ...

Seat Alhambra 2.0 TDI SE DSG (2012) long-term test review

4.5

Stephen Worthy, 27 January 2012 09:00

Seat Alhambra to the rescue - 27 January 2012 At the last count, the Seat Alhambra has won more glittering prizes than the movie Titanic (seven in the UK alone, but also garnering best MPV nods throughout Europe – including Germany). But thankfully, this is no sinking ship. Far from it. Out there among the Continent’s car-buying public, the new ...

Mercedes ML63 AMG (2012) CAR review

Jed Maxwell, 18 January 2012 10:00

Mercedes claims to have invented the original performance 4x4 with its ML55 AMG in 1999. This Mercedes ML63 AMG is the third generation of the German firm’s hot off-roader and, despite the eye-watering fuel consumption and price tag, its predecessors have gained a loyal following with more than 24,000 leaving showrooms. The new Mercedes ML63 AMG goes on sale inthe UK July ...

BMW 320d SE (2012) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 22 December 2011 09:54

A new BMW 3-series is a big deal. The default sports saloon accounts for one third of BMW’s sales so the Munich firm can’t afford to get it wrong. Read on for CAR's first drive review of the new BMW 3-series. Bar the comedy glasses, the new BMW 3-series looks the same to me. What’s changed? More than you’d imagine. Built on ...

Seat Mii 1.0 SE (74bhp) 2011 CAR review

Tim Pollard, 29 November 2011 09:06

Seat's not built a city car since the Arosa (itself twinned with the VW Lupo). Now history's repeating itself, with the simultaneous launches of the VW Up, Seat Mii and Skoda Citigo. Here we review one of the toppier Seat Mii models, the higher-powered 74bhp in what should equate to a UK-bound SE spec. Buying a Mii is a simple ...
