There are a few hot hatch staples that really put a smile on our face– the RenaultSports, the VXRs, the vRS and the STs of the world. We like them all, for what they (in the main) represent. That is normally good value and performance that offers real smiles-per-mile that only a supercar or motorbike […]
? The Mercedes-Benz A-Class has been popular since the mark 1 was launched back in 1997. That is with good reason of course, given that the small hatch has proven to be reliable, good looking and with a rather swish interior. It also came with a number of engine options, meaning that there was a […]

A classy interior, a stylish exterior and good dynamics meant this premium hatch hit the sweet spot for many a motorist. But how can Mercedes improve on the already highly regarded car?

There is little more we like than hot hatches over at Car Articles. It is the sense of ability that’s so important. You can go from dropping the kids off at school to careering down a B road slaloming the corners as if you were Sebastien Loeb. The Ford Focus RS and the Mercedes-AMG A45 […]

Mat Watson has got his hands on the new Renault Megane – and we must say we’re quite jealous! We at Car Articles are fans of Renault, from the Renault Twingo Renaultsport 133 through to the new Talisman, the French marque seems to inject real flair. This new car looks to be the business too […]
The Ford Fiesta ST is a brilliant, fast little car. It has just about everything you could ask for including pace, practicality for a supermini and that elusive X factor – being fun to drive. The ST200 turns that performance dial up to 11 and puts even more anger underneath the hood. We strongly recommend […]
BMW has as car in just about every niche. That’s not a bad idea to get the best spread of the market. From this singular German marque you can have a small hatch, a large hatch, a small SUV, a large SUV, a large SUV coupe, a family front wheel drive car, a long wheel […]
The French have a long tradition of hot hatchbacks – many would argue they produced the first and continue to produce the best. The Peugeot 308 GTi 2016 is a proper car in this rich historical line in that it is just as capable of popping to the shops on a Sunday as it is […]
