Audi RS4 Avant (2013) long-term rest review

Audi RS4 Avant (2013) long-term rest review

Rated 4 out of 54

the CAR road test team, 26 April 2013 09:10

Month 1 running an Audi RS4 Avant - the RS4 begins its stint at CAR It's probably worth dealing with the question of ride quality before we go any further. Much has been written about the unforgiving nature of the RS4’s chassis, and some of that was no doubt fuelled by the angst of a certain Mr J Clarkson, who told ...

Porsche Panamera GTS (2012) long-term test review

Porsche Panamera GTS (2012) long-term test review

Rated 4 out of 54

the CAR road test team, 22 April 2013 07:00

Month 8 running a Porsche Panamera GTS: shpuld you buy the diesel Panamera instead? The GTS isn’t faultless, but our only real criticism is its 22mpg thirst. No such trouble with the Panamera Diesel, which won’t dip below 30mpg even when thrashed, will top 40mpg on a cruise, and averages in the mid-to-high 30s – depending on how much thrashing ...

BMW M6 Gran Coupe (2013) CAR review

BMW M6 Gran Coupe (2013) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Barry, 19 April 2013 16:30

This is the new BMW M6 Gran Coupe, a four-door coupe/saloon that slots between the M6 coupe and M5 saloon. It gives Munich a direct rival to the Mercedes CLS 63 AMG (£82k) and forthcoming Audi RS7, and an excuse to add £24k to the M5's sticker price – it'll cost £97,490 when it goes on sale in May. The ...

Audi RS6 Avant (2013) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Pulman, 09 April 2013 11:30

This is new Audi RS6 Avant, a 552bhp rival to the BMW M5, Jaguar XFR-S and Mercedes E63 AMG. It’s also the second of four new Audi RS models due in 2013, but after the disappointment of the first (the RS5 Cabriolet) can the new RS6 deliver? This über Avant is less powerful than its predecessor, but it is faster ...

Audi A6 Allroad 3.0 BiTDi (2012) long-term test review

Audi A6 Allroad 3.0 BiTDi (2012) long-term test review

Month 6 running an Audi A6 Allroad - the strange Audi service schedule explained No, I'm not supplementing my income with a bit of funeral directing on the side, the matching colours were simply coinicidence. The mini-me is my girlfriend’s 2004 A4 Avant TDI, pictured here to show the positive side of Audi’s sometimes painfully slow design evolution. Can you think ...

Renault Zoe EV (2013) CAR review

Renault Zoe EV (2013) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Steve Moody, 28 March 2013 12:00

This is a massive launch: the new Zoe is an electric car Renault really needs to succeed, as it’s the tip of a four billion euro arrow, fired years ago by Carlos Ghosn. Certainly, it’s a cracking looking thing, with its cute, stubby looks and stylish, airy interior that is techy without being weird. But is it four billion well ...

Mazda 6 2.2D Sport (2013) CAR review

Mazda 6 2.2D Sport (2013) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ollie Kew, 19 March 2013 17:26

The new third-generation Mazda 6 is the lightest, most frugal version of the Mondeo/Passat rival yet. Available in saloon or ‘Tourer’ estate bodystyles, it’s priced from £19,595 for an entry-level petrol model. We’ve driven the 2.2-litre diesel saloon in top-spec Sport trim to see if this new 6 is as appealing as its predecessors. How much Mazda 6 do I ...

Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series (2013) CAR review

Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series (2013) CAR review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Ben Barry, 04 March 2013 07:00

This is the new Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series, the fifth Black Series since the SLK55 AMG kicked things off in 2006, and closest in spirit to the SL65 Black Series of 2008. At around £230k, it's a solid £60k clear of the regular SLS on which it's based and only a little cheaper than the Ferrari F12. We've come ...

Ford Fiesta ST (2013) CAR review

Ford Fiesta ST (2013) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Barry, 28 February 2013 16:00

This is the Ford Fiesta ST, baby brother to the Focus ST and follow-up to the 2005-2008 ST. It costs from £16,995, putting it head-to-head with Renault’s new sub-£20k Clio RS and Peugeot’s new £18,895 208 GTI. What’s the tech spec? At the ST’s heart lies a 1.6-litre Ecoboost turbo engine that chucks 180bhp and 214lb ft to the front ...

Toyota's GT86 meets the legendary 'Drift King'

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Pulman (photography by Paddy McGrath), 11 February 2013 11:45

When CAR met 'Drift King' Keiichi Tsuchiya, we took Toyota's new GT86 coupe – and its legendary AE86 predecessor – along to see what the original oversteer hero made of the slidey new model. Read on for the full story of how Tsuchiya brought drifting to the world, and his thoughts on the Toyota GT86 and AE86. Toyota GT86 meets 'Drift King' ...
