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

Ford Mondeo review
A large boot and plenty of room for passengers make the Mondeo a highly practical choice The Mondeo’s rakish looks don’t compromise its interior functionality. There’s plenty of space for five adults and a big boot. A deep centre armrest, big cupholders and extra space behind the floating centre console mean oddment storage in the… Continue reading Ford Mondeo review
Ferrari GTC4 Lusso T 2018 UK 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
New Ferrari Portofino 2018 review
It might not have been the most revered car in Ferrari’s line-up, nor the fastest, but the V8-engined California T was still an exceedingly desirable sports car all the same. Now Ferrari has improved its front-engined, rear-wheel-drive roadster, giving it a new name 10 years after the original California T was first seen. Welcome to the all-new £166,180, 199mph Ferrari Portofino.… Continue reading New Ferrari Portofino 2018 review
Vauxhall Mokka X review
Inert handling lets the Mokka X down, but the excellent 1.4 Turbo petrol and comfortable ride are strong points The Mokka X’s relaxed nature is most evident when cornering. While the electrically assisted steering is quick and precise, there’s very little feedback through the wheel to make you feel connected with the road. Where a… Continue reading Vauxhall Mokka X 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
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
