  • R32: The Ultimate Golf 3 Dec 2002 (News)
    Turn-in to a corner at 90mph plus, keep that pedal where it should be and you can really frighten yourself, never mind your passenger. But if it all gets too much, the four wheel drive system looks after you and as long as you don’t go completely crazy you’re never in any danger of finding out what happens if you hit a tree at 90mph. Getting real, not many of us are actually going to drive the R32 like this, are we?

  • How to: Import a classic car 8 Apr 2014 (News)
    Certainly classic insurers, such as Carole Nash or Hagerty can. And let's face it, buying a classic and driving it home can be a real adventure.

  • Why 2019 could be the best time to buy a diesel 1 Feb 2019 (News)
    All modern diesels are fitted with a diesel particulate filter (DPF), which is designed to reduce harmful emissions but can become clogged over time. Driving at high speeds for prolonged periods will cause DPFs to automatically regenerate, burning off the accumulated soot in the filter and preventing any issues caused by a blocked DPF. If most of your driving is around town, the DPF won't be able to regenerate and could become blocked.
  • Happy Birthday: Hyundai Pony 22 Dec 2015 (News)
    A station wagon joined the line-up in 1977, but was never exported. The running gear was contemporary Ford, rear-wheel-drive, live rear axle, while mechanically the Hyundai came with an engine and gearbox courtesy of Mitsubishi. It wasn’t the greatest drive – skinny rubber, a narrow track and that rear-drive, live-axle combination made it more than a little skittish in wet conditions.

  • Honest John's Motoring Agony Column 27-6-2015 27 Jun 2015 (News)
    My question is, will a mileage of about 10,000 a year keep the diesel particle filter clean, or should I get a petrol? I want something like an ix35 or a KIA Sportage (two wheel drive) auto. The problem is, as automatics, they only come with a diesel and four wheel drive. Have you any suggestions please?   KS, via email   Petrol better.
  • Future Classic Friday: Audi A8 20 Apr 2018 (News)
    Both were fine cars to drive – the V6 offering fleet friendly comfort and efficiency, while the V8 appealed much more to the owner driver, who wanted his or her car to be as much a technical tour de force as it was a form of transport.
  • Tiny 1970s British electric vehicle smashes world speed record 19 Jul 2016 (News)
    'The car never feels like it is out of its comfort zone. To be honest I have disconnected the speedo, and just drive it by feel. You quickly forget how small it is when the lights go green. The instant electric torque delivery is something I have never experienced in over 15 years of driving and testing sports cars.
  • Pre-Budget Report gives company car drivers a tax-free option 10 Dec 2009 (News)
    The first is range – even the best electric cars have a theoretical range of less than 100 miles, which is often much less in real-world driving conditions. Once commuting and private driving (dropping children off at school for instance) are taken into consideration, there could be precious little range left for business driving. Any driver travelling more than 700 miles per week is unlikely to be able take advantage of the new rules.

    With its wheel-at-each-corner design, wide track, low centre of gravity, short overhangs and a torsional stiffness two to three times greater than any other car of its size, MINI driving dynamics should be excellent. A fast steering rack and BMWs state-of-the-art rear Z-axle suspension should give razor sharp reactions in complete safety. Electronic driving stability systems will help to keep MINI under control and pointing in the right direction under extreme driving conditions or in an emergency.
