I am a pensioner and have a budget of around £50,000 to treat myself to a 'fun' car before I am finally too old to enjoy driving. I have owned many high-performance cars in the past and I shall keep my...

We've had three BMW 525i automatic cars in succession over the last fifteen years, and we love the ride, the space and the performance. I'm thinking about perhaps moving up to a two-year-old BMW M5, but...

I have a 2009 manual BMW Z4 2.5 which I have owned for about 10 months. It looks great but is not overly comfortable on long runs, the gear changes don't appear to be smooth, it is very impractical and...

I test-drove a new model Audi A3 recently. I didn't think it handled better than the Focus to be honest, but what a great engine the 1.4TFSI 122 is. Very diesel-like torque, no nasty lack of pull at really...

My mum, well embarked on her 80s, has decided she 'wants a more sporty car' (don't ask). She is a strong willed lady, in full possession of her faculties and is currently driving a Toyota Yaris, which...

I wish to replace my BMW 525 with a vehicle that gives me a higher driving position but would like to retain the space, performance and comfort I get from my current car. I have ruled out the X5 as too...

I have just had the lower half of my left leg removed and will have to learn to adapt to life with a disability. It also means disposing of my Jaguar XF Premium Luxury Auto diesel with 1200 miles on the...

Can you please advise me as to what small 4x4 you would recommend to buy - taking into account emissions, a good driving experience, reliability and ride quality, and a big enough engine to gave reasonable...
