Ford Focus ST (2013) long-term test review

Rated 2 out of 52

the CAR road test team, 23 May 2013 09:00

Month 3 running a Ford Focus ST: should the ST have four-wheel drive? Interesting one, , this: Ford won’t sell you the punchiest diesel Kuga SUV in front-wheel-drive guise, instead ensuring that its 251lb ft of torque flows through all four tyres. But our Focus ST channels 265lb ft through the front wheels alone, with none of the trick limited-slip ...

BMW 3-series Gran Turismo (2013) CAR review

Rated 2 out of 52

Georg Kacher, 22 May 2013 12:30

This is the BMW 3-series GT, which starts from £28,835. Cast in the same (albeit smaller) mould as the unloved 5GT, the 3-seres Gran Turismo offers estate-beating versatility, but does it still drive like a proper BMW? We drove the 320d and 335i models model to find out. So, what’s the point? Is that what you’re thinking? Us too. We ...

Rated 2 out of 52

Ollie Kew, 21 May 2013 10:00

Five months after winning its third consecutive F1 constructor’s title, Red Bull has teamed up with F1 engine producer’s Renault to celebrate with a special hot hatch. It’s called (deep breath): Renault Megane Renaultsport Red Bull Racing RB8. Surely the engine supplier to the mighty Seb Vettel has upped power for this RS Megane? Nope. It’s still a 2.0-litre turbocharged ...

Trip diary: how Mercedes launches a new S-class

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ollie Kew, 20 May 2013 09:00

Hamburg is a long way to go to poke around a new car and not drive it, but when it's a new Mercedes S-class, it's worth the trek, if only to see the tech that'll be filtering down to Golfs and Fiestas over the next decade. As it turned out, I saw rather more than just that… 6.45am The black ...

Rated 2 out of 52

Damion Smy, 15 May 2013 13:45

Lexus has confirmed it’s readying a new baby SUV to take on the Audi Q3 and BMW X1, as well as the forthcoming Mercedes GLA – and we’ve caught it testing ahead of its debut at the Tokyo motor show at the end of 2013. The new SUV will be the cheapest Lexus SUV on offer, sitting below the RX in the ...

Jaguar ‘X760’ (2014) new spy shots of baby Jag

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ollie Kew, 14 May 2013 11:00

These are the latest spy shots of Jaguar’s next entry-level model testing on UK roads. Set to take the form of either a Mercedes CLA-style four-door coupe or a coupe-crossover in the vein of the BMW X4, the new Jaguar should arrive in 2015. What powers this test mule? Under the bonnet of this sorry-looking XF bodyshell is a 3.0-litre ...

Mercedes E63 AMG S (2013) priced from £83,470

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ollie Kew, 13 May 2013 16:00

Mercedes has announced the hottest E-class you can buy, the E63 AMG S, will cost from £83,470 in the UK from June 2013. In uprated 'S' guise, the 577bhp/580lb ft exec saloon monster can only be ordered with 4Matic all-wheel drive in left-hand drive markets, but the UK gets only rear-drive cars. CAR has already tried the E63 AMG S in ...

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

As CAR reported in our scoop last week, VW will unveil a higher-performance Golf GTI hot hatch at the 2013 Wörthersee show, and here we have the first sketches of the super-Golf. Called the VW Design Vision Golf GTI, the concept packs close to 500bhp and can outrun a Porsche 911. It's by far the most extreme Golf hot hatch since ...
