Diesel engines are smooth and refined but not fast, while handling errs on the side of comfort Ford makes it clear that the Edge is targeted at premium buyers, and the driving experience reflects that. It goes about its business in a relaxed and refined manner, but there’s little of the involvement you would find… Continue reading Ford Edge review

New Aston Martin DB11 Volante 2018 review
Elegance is a commodity prized by car designers. Often strived for, seldom achieved. But the DB11 Volante has a genuine style that sets the tone for the rest of the car. It’s the first drop-top in Aston Martin’s new model line-up, and far from being a simple chop-the-roof-off-a-DB11-Coupe job, the Volante has undergone a thorough… Continue reading New Aston Martin DB11 Volante 2018 review
Vauxhall Corsa review
Better than ever, with mostly good quality, plenty of room and now featuring Vauxhall’s quality infotainment At a glance, you could easily mistake the new Corsa for its predecessor – it has the same door pillars and glass area as before. According to Vauxhall, that’s because existing customers liked the look of the previous car,… Continue reading Vauxhall Corsa review
Ford Kuga review
A facelift for the 2017 model year saw the ageing Kuga get a much more distinctive and handsome look, with the larger grille seen on the Ford Edge now sitting on the front of the car, and a new set of head and taillights giving it a more interesting appearance overall. It’s a different story… Continue reading Ford Kuga review
Alpina D5 S 2018 review
If you like the D5 S, there’s little to rival what it offers. The kicker is that the legendary residual value of Alpina cars is far from certain, given the nature of the powertrain. Putting that to one side, the D5 S costs £62,000, to which you can add £1785 for adaptive dampers with electronically… Continue reading Alpina D5 S 2018 review
Ford S-MAX review
Ford pioneered the fun-to-drive MPV with the first S-MAX a decade ago, and the latest model is an even more rounded product. The S-MAX drives like a seriously well-sorted family saloon, yet offers seven-seat practicality. It’s more comfortable than the previous model and packed with enough technology to shame even some luxury saloons. There’s a great… Continue reading Ford S-MAX review

Last year saw the introduction of the new GTC4 Lusso model, a front-engined, four-seater successor to the previous FF, which was followed by this: the GTC4 Lusso T. We drove it last year on Italian roads in left-hand drive form, but we’re now testing it for the first time in the UK. The GTC4 Lusso… Continue reading Ferrari GTC4 Lusso T 2018 UK review
Ford Galaxy review
Ford has a reputation for building cars that are fun to drive, and the previous generation Galaxy handled well, given that it was such a large MPV. However, the brand’s latest large car platform (the same architecture that underpins the Ford Mondeo and S-MAX) has divided opinion, being geared towards comfort rather than fun. In… Continue reading Ford Galaxy review
