Volvo has been at the forefront of vehicle safety for many years. It should therefore come as no surprise that the new S90 and V90 have both scored 5/5 following Euro NCAP assessment. Even more impressive is that Volvo is the first car maker to score a full six points in the Autonomous Emergency Braking for […]
A speeding driver, Farid Reza, who killed a 21-year-old woman in Kingston, south west London, has been found guilty of Causing Death by Dangerous Driving and Serious Injury at the Old Bailey where telematics data provided vital evidence in support of the police investigation. Reza, 36, of Kingston was sentenced to 5 years and 3 […]
The new BMW X1 is really rather a looker. A proper mini SUV (it’s based on the MINI platform so that’s actually quite apt), this is sure to appeal to just about everyone. It’s great to drive, efficient and has plenty of built in safety kit. Perhaps the only questions you’ll have are over the […]
Road safety and breakdown organisation GEM Motoring Assist is encouraging drivers to avoid getting involved in conflicts on journeys. The advice follows the two year suspended prison sentence handed to Harvey Spencer Stephens following a ‘road rage’ attack in August last year. Former actor Stephens sprang to fame as devil child Damien in the 1976 […]

We at Car Articles have always had a soft spot for the two door Audi A5. The sleek lines just seemed to work. In the right spec it was pretty much a German reimagining of an American muscle car. Sleek curves lead to bold lines at the front of the car whilst the rear has always […]
Kia is on a roll at the moment. The latest Sportage is a great SUV, the new Optima has impressed and now there’s this – the Kia Stinger. Uninspiring name aside (this isn’t the 70’s and we aren’t in the US) this is a properly grown up GT car from the Korean brand that has […]
