Nissan Micra facelift (2013) first official pictures

Rated 1 out of 51

Ollie Kew, 03 June 2013 12:01

Nissan’s tried to inject some of the styling fizz of the Juke into the Micra supermini, with a package of visual tweaks for 2013. The cabin’s had a nip and tuck too, and Nissan has confirmed prices won’t rise sharply versus the current £9800-14,000 range. What’s new for the latest Nissan Micra? A Juke-style front grille, new front bumper, triangular ...

Peugeot 208 Allure 1.2 VTi (2012) long-term test

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

the CAR road test team, 03 June 2013 10:00

Month 5 running a Peugeot 208 - comparisons with the faster 208 THP156 Last month I was bemused by the fact Peugeot hadn’t engineered the 208 to be easy to drive around town – blame the flimsy throttle pedal and rubbery gearbox. But the cooking version, the 156bhp THP, is much better. With a turbocharged 1.6-litre four-pot it is, of course, ...

Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2 (2013) CAR review

Rated 2 out of 52

Ollie Kew, 28 May 2013 12:30

Bye-bye outdated Colt, hello fuel-sipping new Mirage. Mitsubishi’s new five-door only supermini is the most aerodynamic car in its class, but is a slippery shape all the Mirage has going for it? We drove the top-spec Mirage 3 to see if class honours remain an unobtainable oasis on the horizon… Does the Mitsubishi Mirage cut through the air like its ...

Vauxhall Adam Slam 1.4 (2013) UK CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ollie Kew, 01 May 2013 11:00

CAR first drove the Vauxhall Adam earlier this year, but that was a European-spec car on Portugese roads. The Adam copped a lot of stick for its ride and handling – which Vauxhall promised would be retuned for discerning British tastes (and shoddy British roads) on UK models. We’ve driven the sporty 1.4 ‘Slam’ model to see if the changes ...

MG3 supermini (2013) first official pictures

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ollie Kew, 22 April 2013 22:00

This is the MG’s new Fiesta-fighting supermini: the MG3. It’ll go on sale in late 2013 carrying Korean brand-challenging prices and what MG is touting as ‘a distinctive statement of modern British style’ aimed at young buyers. Though the 3 is more likely to draw in penny-pinching pensioners, given that MG’s past that is rather more evoctive than its present. ...

Kia Soul (2013) first official pictures

Rated 1 out of 51

Ollie Kew, 28 March 2013 15:00

This is the new Kia Soul. For its second generation, Kia's quirky supermini crossover has adopted design cues from the 2012 Trackster concept, and sits on a wider, stiffer chassis. The boxy Soul has been a huge hit with young drivers in America, but can this second-gen version also woo British buyers? Read on for the details, and deliver your ...

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 ...

Used cars: how to buy a second-hand Porsche Cayenne

Rated 2 out of 52

Ben Barry (photography by Charlie Magee), 11 March 2013 09:00

Porsche's Cayenne is one of the world's best sporting SUVs. Plus, you can now own one from just £7000. Tempted? Read on for the spec lowdown. Talk me through the Porsche Cayenne range The Cayenne launched with the Turbo (444bhp and 466lb ft) and 4.5 V8 S (335bhp and 310lb ft) variants in 2002, both of which got the Tiptronic six-speed auto ...

Mercedes to launch baby crossover aimed at Mini

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher, 10 March 2013 00:01

Mercedes-Benz is plotting a supermini-sized rival for the Mini and Audi A1, CAR Online can reveal. Referred to internally as ‘X-class’ for now, the 4m-long crossover would be developed with Renault-Nissan for a 2018 launch. The need for a baby Benz is acute: Mercedes has nothing in the £12,000 to £19,000 bracket between Smart and A-class, a niche BMW will ...

Used cars: how to buy a second-hand Porsche 996

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry (photography by Charlie Magee), 08 March 2013 12:00

Porsche's rear-engined 911 icon: it's yours for £7000. How? The cheapest way into a modern 911 is the 996 Carrera, and it’s not hard to understand why: the 996 was preceded by the last of the air-cooled cars, the 993, so that car’s cult status is assured; meanwhile, the 997 followed it, and that’s essentially a new, improved 996. Want ...
