Caterham Seven Superlight 150 long-term test

the CAR road test team, 31 October 2008 11:45

Long term test update – 31 October 2008. With the days getting darker and the nights longer, I took full advantage of last weekend and washed my Caterham. For me this was a big event – I can’t remember the last time I cleaned a long-term car. But the sun was shining so I went and bought some cheap car ...

Mini Cooper S long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 13 October 2008 10:00

Long-term test update – 14 November 2008. I’d completely forgotten how expensive modern windscreens are.

Mercedes-Benz C320 CDI long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 07 October 2008 09:30

Long-term test report - 7 October 2008. So my Mercedes C-class has gone – and I will miss it like few other long-term cars. The C320 CDI really got under my skin. Its presence, its power and its ability to elevate any journey to a special event sucker-punched me a week after its arrival and my captivation grew with every passing ...

Honda Civic Type-R long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 25 September 2008 12:00

Long-term test goodbye, 20 October 2008. Twelve months ago RO57 JJV turned up looking like it had arrived from another planet. Three-door Civics were (and still are) a rare sight, and matched to a lustrous ‘Milano’ red paint our Type-R attracted attention like no other hot-hatch. However, judging from the comments below, not all have fallen for the Civic’s styling like us… After ...

CAR's great drives: Destination Budapest! Part 1

Ian Fraser, 28 August 2008 17:00

Ian Fraser wrote Destination Budapest! – another of CAR's seminal drive stories, published in August 1977. We drove a Jaguar XJC down the Danube and behind the Iron Curtain, in the days before the Berlin Wall had tumbled. Read the full unabridged story over the next few pages at CAR Online Although the boundaries are different, Rudyard Kipling’s belief that ...
