The term ‘race car built for the road’ is thrown around a lot these days, often used to describe regular cars with stiffened suspension, go-fast aero bits and a set of sporty wheels, however, there’s one car that truly encapsulates the meaning of the phrase and that’s the Porsche 911 GT3. Named after […]
The original XK was beautiful, comfortable and fast, but as far as driving appeal was concerned the Jaguar coupe left a lot to be desired. With the latest model, developers at the British marque focused more on improving the chassis and dynamics rather than boosting the engine alone. In this way they have emphasized the […]
The humble VW Golf has come a long way over its 30 year history. No longer just an affordable econo-box, the Golf has grown substantially in both size and weight with each new generation and now comes with niceties you’d expect in much more expensive metal.

For years, Ferrari’s lightweight models have been getting all the attention, but with the F430 Scuderia still several months away Lamborghini has been basking in the spotlight thanks to its own Gallardo Superleggera (“Super Light”) model.

Like the new Volkswagen Beetle and BMW Mini currently on sale, Fiat’s new 500 minicar has been designed to reignite the nostalgia and the glory days of carefree motoring in Europe during the 1950s and ‘60s. Marking the 50th anniversary of the launch of the original 500 ‘Cinquecento,’ the new 500 offers the same shapely […]
Every new succession of the Porsche 911 has traditionally been more of an evolution of the previous model rather than a complete redesign, but to imagine that engineers could build a 911 Turbo better than the 996 version nearly seemed impossible. Not so, as Stuttgart’s finest have amazed us once again with a car that’s […]
Maserati’s Quattroporte saloon first debuted back in 2004 as a concept before going on sale as an almost identical production version later that same year. Initial tests of the car led to one common criticism – the lack of an authentic automatic transmission. Its electronic-actuated Duoselect manual gearbox was derived from the same unit […]
Audi was always going to have a challenge on its hands designing a successor to the original TT Coupe. The lines were cutting edge, bold, and unique, but at the same time were keeping in the style of the rest of Audi’s fleet. The car’s unveiling as a concept back at the 1995 Frankfurt Auto […]
Audi was one of the first carmakers to realize the potential benefit of equipping both its road-going and competition cars with an AWD system.

When I think of Volkswagen and the “people behind the brand” the image of engineers wearing black turtlenecks and speaking with thick German accents springs to mind. Their design haus would be a sterile white lab filled with clipboards and fluorescent lighting that churns out concepts created with efficiency and precision at all costs. Ergonomic […]
As far as quasi off-roaders go, BMW’s X5 has been a huge hit with everyone from serving as the company car for a well-to-do executive to yummy mummies using it for the school run. It went fast, was inoffensively styled (Cayenne anyone?) and had the same luxury appointments as the 5-series sedan on which it […]
The GS450h is a car of contradictions and strange as it may sound, perhaps that’s what its designers wanted. Yes it’s a hybrid, but we’re not talking about the kind of car activist celebrities or hemp wearers would be driving.
