A Grand Monday: Renault 25 GTS Auto 12 Jun 2017 (News)
Indeed, it enjoyed a nine-year production run, from 1984 until 1993, where it remained a leftfield alternative to a Ford Granada or Rover 800 , with handling and ride comfort that bettered both. But as buyers moved away from the mainstream premium models, depreciation hit such models hard. -
A Grand Monday: DAF 44 30 Jan 2017 (News)
Its trucks are conventional, reliable and earn their keep on motorways across Europe, where they're respected as the standard bearer for what a lorry should represent. In truck terms, then, a DAF is like a Ford Fiesta. A default choice. Something sensible, functional, capable and ordinary. It's a far cry from the Dutch manufacturer's car making days, where it offered rear-wheel-drive small saloons. The original DAF Daffodil from 1959 and its successor, the 33, used a 746cc air-cooled engine, while in 1964 the DAF 44 was introduced, powered by an upgraded 844cc engine developing a heady 34bhp. -
A Grand Monday: Peugeot 405 21 Nov 2016 (News)
And it’s easy to see why – sleek Pininfarina lines, excellent build quality, fine handling, a diverse range that offered everything from ultra-efficient diesels to performance models and a choice of sleek saloon or super-practical estate body styles made it the complete package. It would be a further five years before the Ford Mondeo even came close to matching it as the world’s best family car, by which point the 405 had completely reset the bar. An incredible ad campaign, set to a soundtrack of Berlin’s Take My Breath Away as a 405 Mi16 sped across a burning cornfield, added a further level of aspiration. -

Skoda Octavia Estate vRS (2005-) 19 Jun 2016 (News)
After all – most people who go for power and pace aren’t too worried about practicality – but there are some about at this level. There's the similar age Ford Mondeo ST which came as an estate (and was a favourite with the boys in blue) and the Vauxhall Insignia VXR Sports Tourer, but while it’s far more powerful, it’s also far more thirsty. That leaves the Octavia Estate vRS in a unique position as the only truly affordable performance estate car at this level. -
