The Volkswagen Golf R has been voted the best performance car to have in the wet according to Autocarmagazine. With November signalling the start of the three wettest months on the calendar, and a general decline in road conditions, driving a higher performance car can be something of a handful for many owners. Last year, […]
In this video courtesy of Autocar, some of the best driver’s cars of 2014 are examined. Of the Porsche 911 GT3, Ferrari 458 Speciale and Ariel Atom 3.5R and more, which floats your boat? This is a thorough test and really shows what some of these performance cars are actually capable of. In this world […]
There can be no doubt that the Porsche Macan, whilst expensive, has been garnering some of the best reviews of any new car for a long time. Equally, the BMW X4 is sure to send a thrill down the spine of anyone that has seen the car in person. The question is, just how well […]
The BMW M3 is a mammoth performance car. However, the diesel Alpina D3 is no slouch either. So, it’s a classic torque vs power argument again! Granted, whilst they may have similar bodies and extreme performance, but the engine isn’t the only thing that’s different. Take a look at the video to see which super […]
In case you missed it, the BMW i8 hybrid supercar is out in the wild (I’d be surprised if you’re reading this and haven’t taken note of the excellent advertisements for this groundbreaking car). The i8 is powered by two drivetrains – a 1.5 litre three cylinder petrol engine serving the rears and a 129 […]

The all new Mercedes-Benz E300 BlueTEC Hybrid is one of the most efficient cars currently available as a production model (especially in the larger class in which it sits). But can it manage the 1223 miles it takes to travel all the way from Africa back to the UK? View the video courtesy of Autocar […]
Both of these cars are tremendous in their own right. They are focused, performance biased and capable of blasting through B roads like little else on the road. But they are also both quite new, expensive and not without cheaper competition. So the question remains – which do you think would be the best driver’s […]
So here we have it – the definitive review from Autocar of the Ferrari LaFerrari (or simply the LaFerrari as the company would prefer). Hypercar meets iconic racing marque meets hybrid, but how does it all come together? Watch the video to find out.
In this video, Autocar takes a new 2014 Nissan Qashqai all the way from Sunderland (where the car was made) through to Istanbul – where East truly meets West. This is a real world test of car; not focusing on 0-62 or top speed but how a car deals with a long journey. This brings […]
