| BMW M3 And BMW M4 – Evil Twin (Part 3) |
| To find out, we were taken to one of the rally stages of the WRC Rally of Portugal. It's one of those twisting, curving hill stretches that really afford no margin for error. And that’s preceded by a fast set of undulating stretches that in a rally car probably leave a lot of air beneath when taken at full chat. |

| BMW M3 And BMW M4 – Evil Twin (Part 2) |
| But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The new M3 has undergone some pretty unprecedented evolution. If you take your foot off the throttle in a regular turbocharged car, the turbo starts to spin down, creating the ‘lag’ factor. There’s no such thing in the new M3 — the blow-off is rerouted back to the engine to maintain turbo speeds at 80,000 to 90,000 rpm, even in off-throttle conditions. |

| Do you concentrate on the rev-counter, or on the brake pedal? The steering, or the apex? Or do you strain your ears to let the exhaust note roar above all your anxieties? |

| Agenda - The Stuff We’re All Talking About This Month |
| Audi plans to reboot its A2 and TT icons as electric-powered SUVs, as it seeks to expand the Q line-up to a mind-boggling 10 models by 2018. Q models from 1 to 8 are easy to imagine, but jumped-up versions of its famed sports car and humpbacked 1999 fuel miser are more of a leap. |

| Boxing (Not So) Clever - Alfa Romeo Mito Quadrifoglio Verde |
| On paper, then, the new QV been’s awarded a 7.3sec 0-62mph claim thanks to the six-speed dual-clutcher. That’s 0.2 sec quicker than the old manual, but there’s no more power – it’s still 168bhp, so it’s all down to the gearbox for the extra pace. |

| The Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG – Inimitable Fashion |
| When it arrived, the A45 came fresh from a group test against the then-new VW Golf GTI and BMW’s excellent M135i. It was a test the A45 blitzed due its combination of all-wheel drive composure and monster straight-line performance. |

| The Mercedes-Benz C-Class – Brilliant Inside And Out |
| No review of the all-new Mercedes-Benz C-CLASS would be complete without mentioning its rival from Bavaria. Let’s get it out of the way early: The W205 (to give the new Benz its internal designation) isn’t trying to win the BMW 3 Series’ best-driving compact sport-luxury sedan crown, which is a good thing. |

| The Volkswagen Polo 1.5 TDI – Winner Unleashed (Part 2) |
| Redone exterior and interior is one thing, but the biggest change in the new Polo is the new four-pot 1.5-litre TDI motor. It is basically the same unit that serves the Vento, but the smaller bore has reduced its cubic capacity to 1,498 cc. You will forget the problems associated with the old 1.2 TDI as the 1.5 TDI is everything you ever wanted. |

| The Volkswagen Scirocco R – A Technically Impressive Car |
| More Sciroccos roll off the boats at the docks in the UK than in any other European market. Seems we like the Golf-based coupe-cum-hatchback, so news of some updates should be of interest. However, it’s unlikely that you’ll spot the changes. |
|
| The Volvo V60 D4 – A Worthy Option |
| Poor old Volvo. Over the past 20 years it has done a lot of things right. After completely reinventing its engineering (with front and all-wheel drive and lovely five-pot engines), turning out cool middle-class family cars such as the XC90 and XC60 and still owning real-world safety, its global sales remain modest. |
