2008 Ford Focus RS review
A turbo Ford Focus?
Opel Corsa OPC
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but probably not for the Holden faithful. Even the dumb kid in class could’ve predicted that re-tuning and re-branding cheap, crappy Daewoos was a stupid idea. Replacing a soundly-engineered car (the XC Barina) with a blatantly inferior product (the current heap parading under the same name) was a brave move – especially when the logical follow-up, Opel’s Mk4 Corsa, is such a quality effort.
VW Golf 118 TSI
Don’t be misled by VW’s confusing name strategy: there is a GT model hiding in the new Golf Mk VI.
Nissan R35 GT-R Spec-V review
The dark horse...
Mazda MX-5 Review
With 20 years of production creeping dangerously close to one million units (855,000 at last count), and a claimed 178 awards under its belt, the world’s best-selling open-top two-seater has plenty of reasons to smile. But the facelifted third-genner cracks a Botox grin like it’s rocked in the door at 6am after a night of dance-party tomfoolery. Or woken up and found Jennifer Hawkins cooking it breakfast. Or perhaps both.
Lambo LP650-4
If the SV is the Murcielago’s final fling as a coupe, will this garish limited-edition special be its farewell as a roadster? Inside word is: don’t bet on it, because the big Murchey still has two years to run.
Porsche Cayenne Diesel
Stuttgart jumps on the lean, green and oily bandwagon.
Maserati Quattroporte S
New V8, ZF auto and clever engineering make this Maser a winner.
Mazda 3 SP25
Bigger engine and a revamp, yet the sporty 3 remains much the same.

Limited-run senator more than just a sticker special.

Lexus IS F vs Mercedes-AMG C63 vs BMW M3 review
Can Japan’s samurai sedan carve up Germany’s elite?
2009 Porsche Boxster S review
The 2009 Boxster S might only seem slightly different, but many minor changes hone what is already a superb sports car.
