Subaru Impreza STi (2007) uncovered

Rated 0 out of 50

Ben Pulman, 21 September 2007 11:23

Now that’s a proper hot hatch… Yes it is. This is Subaru’s Impreza STi and unlike your Golf GTI or Renault Megane R26 hatchback rivals, this is four-wheel drive. And it’ll knock the Audi S3 into touch as well; where the Audi musters 261bhp, the new Scooby has close to 300bhp. CAR Online has caught the Impreza STi almost undisguised ...

Porsche 911 Turbo (2009) facelift

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Pulman, 19 September 2007 10:55

A facelifted Porsche 911 Turbo? Already? Oh yes. Porsche never seems to stop fettling the 911 and although it’s only been just more a year since we drove the Turbo, Porsche is already working on a facelift. As with most updates these days there’ll be more power, more torque, better fuel consumption, and lower emissions. But the biggest news is ...

Fiat 500 Abarth SS (2007)

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Pulman, 18 September 2007 08:35

A Fiat 500 Abarth? Seen that before… Yes you have, and we scooped it back in May. But this isn’t a 500 Abarth. This is the super-hot Super Sport version with more power and a few mods to make it a more serious performance hatch. Dubbed ‘SS’ this car is still over a year away, but it’ll be proper pocket-rocket ...

BMW V5 (2007)

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 14 September 2007 03:44

The disguise says BMW but what on earth is it? Details are still sparse but this is BMW’s next niche-filling model, codenamed V5. And while blue-and-white-propeller officials might not like you calling it a people carrier, that’s what it is. But not as you know it… With Mercedes’ R-class not selling especially well, BMW has gone for a different look. ...

BMW M3 saloon (2008)

Rated 0 out of 50

Ben Pulman, 06 September 2007 09:30

A four-door M3? Haven’t seen one of those for a while… Not since the E36 model M3, two generations ago, have we seen an M3 saloon. Back then that car didn’t prove particularly popular. Now BMW is giving it another go with this E92 generation M3. But now BMW has got some tough competition because the new Mercedes C63 AMG ...

Vauxhall's VXR expansion (2007)

Rated 2 out of 52

Ben Pulman, 04 September 2007 06:45

More hot stuff from Vauxhall’s VXR range. Are you sure? We are, and while other volume manufacturers have just one or two hot models in their ranges, the Luton-based company has bucked the trend and produced a VXR model for nearly its entire range, stretching from Meriva to Zafira, though thankfully with Astra in between. Vauxhall already offers upgrades for ...

Kia Soul (2007)

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 31 August 2007 09:07

Ah, a 4x4 that’s not actually that big, and can’t go off road? Pretty much got it in one. This is Kia’s mini 4x4, the production version of the Soul concept that appeared at the Detroit Motor Show in January. It’ll be in the mould of the Fiat Sedici/Suzuki SX4. Although we’ve snapped it testing in the Californian desert, it ...

Renault Laguna Coupé (2008)

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 23 August 2007 10:06

Looks a bit daring for Renault! Yes it does. This teaser shot (inset) was flashed up at the launch of the Laguna coupe and CAR Online managed to get a quick shot of it. Renault isn’t releasing any more details of the car until the Frankfurt Motor Show next month, but we've captured the only shot of the car on ...

Hyundai Coupe (2007)

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Pulman, 02 August 2007 02:35

Ooh, that looks quite good! Snapped hot-weather testing in the Californian desert, this is Hyundai’s new Coupe, and yes it does look good. When the current Coupe was launched back in 2003 it was lauded for its Ferrari 456-esque looks, and the Mk1 car of 1996 was rather tasty as well. While successive facelifts have arguably spoiled the looks of ...

Mercedes-Benz SL gets second facelift (2008)

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 27 July 2007 10:26

Is that a new Mercedes SL? Well yes and no. Yes because it’s a facelift, but no because it isn’t a new car. The fifth-generation SL was revised less than a year ago, but Mercedes tends to give the big roadster a long lifecycle so this second facelift should keep the SL going until an all-new car appears in 2011. ...
