The Mercedes-Benz B-Class B 180 CDI Edition 1 – Practical And Affordable |
Among the smaller Mercedes cars you can buy, the A-Class hatchback gets all the press, being the heralder of what is becoming the German auto maker’s new ouvre. Comparatively speaking, it’s more conventional-looking twin, the B-Class gets no love at all. Sure, you do see them occasionally on the roads, but far less than the A, and quite understandably. |

The Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG – Taller By Inches, Better By A Yard |
The GLA45 doesn’t seem that fast. When you look down on the road from your slightly elevated perch, braced by a deep Recaro seat, you don’t ever feel like you’re pushing your luck. It takes a second glance at the speedometer to realize that Mercedes-Benz’s new compact hatchback is going to win a lot of friends in law enforcement. |

The Honda Jazz RS CVT – New Jazz Standard |
Given how people regard light cars as conveyance rather than products that will bring them enjoyment, it's gratifying to find the occasional offering that thrills. |

The Hyundai Eon 1.0 – Offer The Best In Class Quality |
If you think this is one of those steal-a-car’s-engine-and-plonk-it-in-another-car job, you’re highly mistaken. Hyundai has not lifted the Santro’s mill and tossed it into the Eon’s engine bay to get it into the litre-class category. It’s made a new unit specifically for this tiny tot. |

The Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT – The Big Boss |
Topping off the Jeep range is the ornery, hairy-chested Grand Cherokee SRT (formerly SRT8) packing a 6.4-litre Hemi. Yeehaw. Costing what seems a not unreasonable $109,990, given the cost of high performance Euro rivals, it is packed to the gills with luxury, safety and performance gear. |

The Lotus Exige V6 Cup R – A Pure Racing Car |
The Exige V6 Cup R is the full race version of the Exige V6 Cup road car. The most obvious difference between them is the R's higher-downforce aero package, but there are countless detail changes that make it fit for racing. |

Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 Review |
Regarded by many as the very best of the impact-bumper 911s, the Carrera 3.2 is a great all-rounder. One drive and you’ll soon see why! |

The BMW 435i Gran Coupe – With More Four |
BMW has lobbed another model into its expanding local line-up, the 4 Series Gran Coupe bringing the total of 3 Series based offerings to six. Catching more sales requires many hooks, and BMW is casting out the long line. |

The Jaguar F-Type V8 S – Second Best (Part 6) |
A couple more hairpins sit exposed in what looks like a vast wild meadow before the road scores a long line into the landscape and allows a sustained blast through the gears as you continue to climb. Spectacular though it is, the best is yet to come. |
|
The Jaguar F-Type V8 S – Second Best (Part 5) |
It's still raining when we set off again the following morning. This is annoying because in some ways, yesterday was just the warm-up act for today. What we're heading for this morning is a road called the Transalpina. Originally it was a Roman route through the mountains, but in the 1930s the Transalpina in its current form was laid down by King Carol II and it's still known today as The King's Road. |
|
The Jaguar F-Type V8 S – Second Best (Part 4) |
As evening approaches, the tourist traffic thins and my final drive down as the sun flares over the ridge line to the west is wonderful. The V8 F-type is definitely a little softer and a little heavier than the V6 so it doesn't have quite the sharpness on the way into corners and the front tyres need coaxing a little more, but it counterpunches down the straights and then some. |
|
The Jaguar F-Type V8 S – Second Best (Part 3) |
Gradually, like a small red ant, we skirt the edge of a huge natural amphitheatre, climbing all the time so chat we can then look back down on where we've just come from. The road is remarkably wide and you can see a long way ahead, so it's relatively easy to have a play on the corners. |
|
The Jaguar F-Type V8 S – Second Best (Part 2) |
Mixed in with the motorised stuff was the occasional skinny horse and ramshackle cart. To be honest, this was something of a shock. Romania has been a full member of the EU since 2007 and sections of the population are as wealthy and modernised as this would suggest, but they are living cheek-by-jowl with many who appear to be subsisting at a level that is borderline third-world. |
|
The Jaguar F-Type V8 S – Second Best (Part 1) |
The road, the Transfagarasan pass, did look incredible and I remember being really quite annoyed that some clever BBC researcher had found it first – largely because it meant we couldn’t go there without looking like simpering copycats. Damn and blast. |

1980 Porsche 911SC Coupe Review |
In the mid-1970s, and the launch of the new ‘impact bumper' models, it took Porsche a while to bring some semblance of order to its product line, with a few lacklustre models muddying the waters. But the arrival of the 3.0-litre 911SC in the 1978 model line-up changed all that. |
|
1998 Porsche 911 Carrera (996) Review |
Arguably the most convincing ‘starter' Porsche among those showcased here is the 986-model Boxster. The simple truth is, though, that for many newcomers - and old hands, too - it is only the iconic rear-engined 911 that will ever hit the spot. |

Mopar Muscle – Getting Juiced (Part 2) |
The first thing we needed to do for the install at Razor’s Edge was get access to the factory windshield washer bottle. By removing the passenger-side inner fender, we were able to easily remove the bottle. |
