Audi TT Roadster test drive
The 2019 Audi TT Roadster is a well-made, punchy sports car. It may not come alive like a Porsche Boxster, but you can still have plenty of fun in the sun.
Lexus UX test drive
The rise of the compact SUV is seemingly unstoppable and Lexus wants to join the party with its latest model – the new Lexus UX hybrid.
Jaguar XF Sportbrake test drive
The Jaguar XF Sportbrake is a genuine alternative to its premium German rivals. It looks good, drives well and will be spacious enough for most, too.
Ferrari Portofino test drive
The new Ferrari Portofino feels far more part of the family than the California ever did, both in terms of how it looks and how it drives.
Audi A6 Avant test drive
Audi’s latest A6 Avant is a dependable, comfortable and refined long-distance load-lugger – just as it always has been, historically.
Audi Q3 test drive
The new Audi Q3 falls into a heavily congested segment, one which its predecessor had nailed. This updated version, however, is likely to do just as well.
BMW 530i Touring test drive
Despite the current SUV craze, there’s still a place for the humble estate. This is one such vehicle – the BMW 5 Series Touring.
Jaguar E-Pace test drive
The Jaguar E-Pace may be the smallest of the company's three-pronged SUV range, but can it offer big-car practicality and a memorable drive?
Twin test: Renault Megane RS vs. Honda Civic Type R
Two of the best hot hatches on the market go head to head as the new Renault Megane RS Cup takes on the mighty Honda Civic Type R.
BMW 3 Series test drive
The BMW 3 Series is a household name – which means this all-new version has a lot riding on it. So does it live up to expectations? We find out.
Renault Kadjar test drive
While other SUVs of this size may get the job done with a little more style and flair, the Renault Kadjar is still well worth considering.
Mercedes-Benz C-Class saloon test drive
The C-Class does all of the things you’d want a premium saloon to do. It’s comfortable over long distances and comes with plenty of standard equipment.
Ford Edge test drive
The updated 2019 Ford Edge is comfortable, good to drive and provides an awful lot of usable space, with a great new bi-turbo diesel engine.
Volvo S60 test drive
The Volvo S60 is an excellent alternative to current and forthcoming German rivals. It’s well built, beautifully finished and looks good out on the road.
BMW X4 test drive
It may be expensive, but the BMW X4 is one to look at if you’re about to pick from the vast swathes of models currently available in the SUV segment.
Honda CR-V Hybrid test drive
The CR-V Hybrid is an excellent proposition for those looking to drive down fuel costs without making too many sacrifices in terms of driving experience.
Smart EQ ForTwo test drive
For an inner-city driver, the Smart EQ ForTwo makes plenty of sense. However, those looking to travel further afield may find it a little too limited.
Mercedes-AMG G63 test drive
We head out to see just how the all-new Mercedes-AMG G63, successor to one of the longest-running model lines ever, deals with UK roads.
Honda CR-V test drive
The new Honda CR-V is decent to drive with an experience which is neither awful nor exceptional. It's a pretty well-rounded all-rounder.
Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio test drive
The Stelvio Quadrifoglio is the first performance SUV to come from Alfa Romeo, and is easily one of the most dynamic crossovers on sale today.
Twin test: Volkswagen Up! vs. Kia Picanto
We’re testing out two key city car competitors, the Volkswagen Up! and the Kia Picanto, to see which one is the best urban runabout.
Mercedes-Benz CLS test drive
The Mercedes-Benz CLS 400d ticks many of the boxes that you’d find yourself needing to be ticked when looking for a comfortable, long-distance cruiser.
Suzuki Jimny test drive
Suzuki’s iconic Jimny is back with a bang, and it’s more grown-up than ever. We headed out to Frankfurt for a quick test drive.
Porsche 911 Carrera T test drive (991)
The Carrera T makes for a compelling package. It’s quick, looks good and feels special too. Does it warrant a £7,700 premium over the regular car, though?
Porsche 718 Cayman GTS test drive
The Porsche 718 Cayman GTS is a bit of cracker. It’s sharp, nimble and brilliantly suited to the UK’s roads – and it gets better the harder you drive it.
