VW Sharan Bluemotion/Seat Alhambra Ecomotive (2009) CAR review

Rated 1 out of 5

Stephen Worthy, 01 January 2009 09:00

It’s taken Volkswagen and Seat a while to trickle down their respective environment-focused Bluemotion and Ecomotive badges to their large MPVs, the Sharan and Alhambra. That tells you all you need to know about the pecking order at VAG. The truth is that in their current guise these are two cars approaching the automotive equivalent of the old folks’ home. ...

Ssangyong Rexton 270 S CAR review

Rated 1.5 out of 5

Richard Aucock, 12 June 2008 09:29

With the relaunch of SsangYong in the UK, we're testing all their latest products. Dealers say they sell the Rexton large SUV to buyers with an inkling for an X5, but not the cash. It’s SsangYong’s oldest but best-looking machine, with cohesion to its lines that approaches smart class. It’s OK inside as well – influences are clearly Japanese hi-fi, ...

Mercedes GLK350 CAR review

Rated 1.5 out of 5

Georg Kacher, 21 April 2008 09:43

It's been a long wait, but we've finally driven Mercedes' new junior off-roader, the GLK. And we can confidently say Stuttgart’s latest offering is an off-roader because CAR has been mud-plugging in the GLK - and beating its big brother M-class driven by Mercedes’ own instructors. Still, the GLK has to prove an awful lot if it’s to compete in ...

Dodge Demon concept CAR review

Rated 1.5 out of 5

Anonymous, 01 June 2007 08:36

Dodge Demon Roadster. Great name, but this is just a concept car right? For now, yes. But like pretty much all of Dodge, Jeep and Chrysler's concepts, this one is driveable and we have driven it. The Chrysler Group also has a funny habit of putting their concept cars into production, in which case the Demon promises much. It is ...

Citroen Cruise Crosser CAR review

Rated 1 out of 5

Anonymous, 08 May 2007 11:18

A six-wheeled Citroen pick-up truck? Are you serious? Certainly am. And with its weird Cruise Crosser, Citroen is too. Pick-ups are big business, particularly in the UK where people have started buying them as a cheap alternative to 4x4s. And the firm’s bosses told us that a pick-up could feature in its range in the future. If you’re already making ...

Dodge Avenger 2.0 CRD CAR review

Rated 1.5 out of 5

Anonymous, 21 March 2007 12:03

Dodge’s European assault continues then? Sure does, after the introduction of the Caliber last year Dodge is now offering us its new Avenger. It’s the Caliber’s big brother, competing in the D-sector, or to those who don’t understand marketing speak - the Mondeo-sized class. It shares its bold style with the Caliber, the huge front grille and confident jutting spoiler ...

Brooke Double R CAR review

Rated 1 out of 5

Anonymous, 19 December 2006 08:50

The Brooke looks familiar It’s similar in style to Gordon Murray’s bike-engined Rocket from 1992, but the Brooke adopts a more conventional seating layout – two abreast, not one behind the other – and the engine is the 260bhp Cosworth four used in the Caterham CSR. What’s underneath? Not a lot. The Brooke weighs just 550kg, or 310kg less than ...

Daihatsu Terios CAR review

Rated 1.5 out of 5

Anonymous, 27 November 2006 10:49

You're a bit slow off the mark aren't you? This thing's been on sale for months. Yes, well, we've put off driving it for as long as humanly possible. Memories of the old car you see; some of us are still receiving treatment. Horrid little box. So the old Terios was a bit of a duffer, but that doesn't mean ...
