Car Indicators
IT’S big, it’s blue and it’s very beautiful. More importantly it’s an Audi super-car which was mine to do with as I wish for a week – although Tony forced me to drive it up and down the Goyt Valley in Derbyshire so he could take some “pics and footage”. Oh well, anything to oblige […]
THE Suzuki Celerio is the Japanese manufacturers most-affordable car and if you think that must mean a lack of refinement or equipment then you may be pleasantly surprised. The Celerio is never going to wow you with plush interiors or cutting-edge infotainment systems but after spending a week with the mid-spec Celerio SZ3 I can tell you […]
SLOTTING in between the Evoque and the Range Rover Sport the Velar is more striking than either and just as capable on and off-road. But is it worth the rather steep asking price? Review car: Range Rover Velar HSE R-Dynamic D240 2.0-litre diesel, 240bhp, 0-60mph in 6.8 secs, Max speed 135mph, Combined Fuel Consumption 48.7mpg, CO2 […]
WHEN Kia unveiled their GT concept back in 2011 at the Frankfurt Motor Show I (like most other motoring journalists) assumed that it would either: (a) never reach production looking like that or (b) reach production but fail entirely to be a viable alternative to offerings from BMW, Audi or Mercedes. Six years later Kia […]
THE Suzuki SX4 S-Cross is a smart-looking small SUV which improves on its predecessor by not only looking beefier than before but packing in some great tech alongside two Boosterjet petrol engines that are refined as well as frugal. Also, being a Suzuki you can pretty much guarantee that you’ll be getting a lot of car for your money – the downside being a […]
THE new Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross sits between the smaller ASX and the all-conquering Outlander in the Japanese company’s SUV line-up and makes a lot of sense if you’re looking for a spacious family Crossover that is good on equipment but won’t break the bank. Available in 2WD or 4WD you have the choice of a 6-speed manual […]
ITALIAN manufacturer Fiat have added a Pickup Truck to their range – the Fullback. But is it worth having over a Mitsubishi L200 on which it is based? Car indicators take the range-topping Fullback Cross for a spin to find out.
THE Ford Mustang is, without doubt, a motoring icon. It’s the first car that springs to mind when someone uses the phrase “American muscle-car” and even those with little interest in all-things motoring will be familiar with the name and, perhaps, that galloping-horse badge. It’s certainly a part of American culture, alongside hotdogs, hamburgers and Rock […]
SALES of pickup trucks are on the rise and when you consider that the likes of the Isuzu D-Max can now offer supreme practicality alongside family comfort, then you can begin to see why. The double-cab variants, in particular, have gained more creature-comforts over the years to make them a real alternative to a family SUV – explaining why we’re now seeing more pickups being used as every-day […]
IN a world now dominated by the SUV I must say that the Infiniti Q60S felt like a breath of fresh air when it arrived on my doorstep – a good looking, sleek coupe whose looks are, thankfully, matched by its performance. A replacement for the under-rated Infiniti G37 coupe, this V6-powered Q60S goes up against […]
