  Jaguar XKR-S 2011 Road Test 3 Jun 2011 (roadtest)
  It's easy to think the XKR-S is just a marketing ploy by Jaguar . After all, the standard XKR isn't exactly short on pace with 510PS on tap from its 5.0-litre V8 engine

  Toyota Verso S 2011 Road Test 17 Feb 2011 (roadtest)
  The Toyota Verso S fills a yawning gap in the Toyota range. The old Postman Pat Toyota Yaris Verso is sorely missed. Between 1999 and 2006 it sold 150,000 in Europe alone. Since then, the hole it left in the market has been filled

  Ford S-MAX 2010 Road Test 3 Feb 2010 (roadtest)
  At the original launch, back in May 2006, the first roundabout convinced me of one thing. The Ford S-Max is a seven-seater sports car. Perhaps not with the 1.8 litre TDCI engine. But certainly with the 2.0TDCI. And no question with the 220PS turbocharged 5-cylinder

  Aston Martin Rapide S (2010 - 2019) (Reviews)
  Four door super saloon from Aston Martin. Superb luxury and performance with mighty 6.0-litre engine.

  MINI Cooper S 2007 Road Test 31 Oct 2006 (roadtest)
  In developing the 2nd generation R56 Mini Cooper S, has BMW taken the fun out of the MINI? First reports from “first drives” a month ago tended to end with that conclusion. And seemed to be worrying MINI Project Leader Horst Radibojevic as he cross-examined us after our own

  Ford S-MAX 2006 Road Test 21 May 2006 (roadtest)
  Ford seems to have done the impossible. Come up with a seven-seater sportscar. The S-Max looks sporty. It goes, drives and handles as well as many so called sportscars. Yet instead of being a 2-seater or a 2+2 it’s actually a 5+2, with a lot more room for the two in the back than

  Mercedes-Benz S-Class (2006 - 2014) (Reviews)
  The old W220 S-Class was to most eyes a beautiful looking car, the svelte lines of which belie its bulk. It was a great favourite, selling 17,852 in the UK alone, the most common car parked kerbside outside the embassies and consulates of Kensington. Now you can pick one up used for around

  Mercedes-Benz S-Class (1991 - 1999) (Classics Reviews)
  Te Mercedes-Benz S-Class may have reached its technical peak in 1991 with the W140 generation. Here we had a car that introduced several new innovations when launched, such as double-glazed side glass and self-closing doors. Of course, the technology went further than that, with the boffins
• 
  Mercedes-Benz S-Class (1979 - 1993) (Classics Reviews)
  In 1979, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class was relaunched, and once again took a big technological leap from what came before. Aerodynamic styling penned by Bruno Sacco signalled a new look that would filter its way down the entire range, and showed that Mercedes-Benz was not about to lose its lead
• 
  Mercedes-Benz S-Class (1972 - 1980) (Classics Reviews)
  The second-generation S-Class was a technical masterpiece, and clearly in the running for the 'best car in the world', which manufacturers like to talk about. The range was logivally split into six- and V8-cylinder cars, standard- and long-wheelbase - with a rather special model right at the top
• 
  Audi 100 Coupe S (1970 - 1976) (Classics Reviews)
  The Audi 100 Coupe S added a much needed shot of glamour into the range during the early 1970s, proving to be a perfect halo product for a manufacturer that was trying hard to establish itself. Shorn of its sensible suit and clothed in an Aston DBS-like coupé bodyshell, the Audi 100 looked
• 
  Mercedes-Benz S-Class (1965 - 1972) (Classics Reviews)
  And so the S-Class legend begins. The launch of the W108 and 109 represented the point at which the large Mercedes-Benz range became the one-size-fits-all default-choice plutocrat motor. It was styled to (near) perfection by Paul Bracq, an object lesson in  understated elegance

  MINI Cooper S Convertible 2018 Road Test 27 Mar 2018 (roadtest)
  if you think this cheeky dose of patriotism works or if they're just pure tacky. Under the bonnet the little punchy 136PS 1.5-litre turbo petrol carries over unchanged and powers the entry-level Cooper model. The big news is the old 2.0-litre turbo that powers the Cooper S and John Cooper S
• 
  Mercedes-Benz S-Class Cabriolet (2016 - 2020) (Reviews)
  Mercedes-Benz produces a range of impressive convertibles and roadsters, but not all of them are created equal. For the buyer who must have the best drop-top model the company builds, there is simply nothing like the S-Class Cabriolet.  From launch

  Ford Ecosport Titanium S 2015 Road Test 14 Dec 2015 (roadtest)
  acceptable if not remarkable and the gearchange is light, if not quite as slick as in the smaller Fiesta. We drove the new Titanium S model with a 125PS 1.0-litre EcoBoost engine

  Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake 2014 Road Test 7 Aug 2014 (roadtest)
  When it comes to high-performance estates, the choices have always been rather limited and rather German. However, all of that could be about to change because Jaguar has decided to square up to Audi and Mercedes-Benz with its new 186mph Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake
• 
  Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe (2014 - 2020) (Reviews)
  Although based upon the more familiar S-Class saloon, this is far more than simply a limousine with two fewer doors.  Starting with a luxurious machine capable of covering hundreds of miles with ease, Mercedes-Benz has then added an extra layer

  Suzuki SX4 S-Cross 2013 Road Test 28 Jun 2013 (roadtest)
  Suzuki is a car maker that has been crying out for a family car for years and now finally it has one – the SX4 S-Cross. Its last venture into this market was the Liana – more famous as being Top Gear's often abused reasonably priced car. But things

  Nissan Micra DIG-S 2011 Road Test 7 Jul 2011 (roadtest)
  I had to go to the other side of the World last year to drive one of the first new Micras. That test is here: Nissan Micra 2010 test and video . Not so far for the Nissan Micra K13 DIG-S. Merely Potsdam, near Berlin, which

  Jaguar S-Type Diesel 2004 Road Test 17 Jul 2004 (roadtest)
  together and start offering BIK friendly alternatives. The front drive X-Type diesel is already the most popular X-Type. The lightweight aluminium XJ is awaiting some new big diesels being developed by PSA and Ford. And the S-Type has been the first recipient of PSA/Ford’s new 206PS 2.7 litre twin
