YOU don’t whisper in a Mustang. You bellow, you burble, and occasionally, you wake up the neighbours. That’s part of the charm. The latest Ford Mustang GT Fastback, with its 5.0-litre V8 and 10-speed automatic gearbox, is as loud and proud as ever — and yet, for all its swagger, it now feels like a […]
I WAS recently lucky enough to be invited to take a look at the all-new Lotus Emira at its Almada Street, Hamilton, showroom; and although there would be no opportunity for a drive, I was looking forward to seeing Lotus’s last-ever petrol-powered sports car in the flesh, so headed off in the direction of Glasgow. It certainly […]
I VERY much like the new Toyota Supra. In fact, I love the new Toyota Supra. It has everything a top-notch sports car should have, like 2 seats, a great sounding engine, rear-wheel drive, acceleration that will stick a grin on your face and looks that will turn heads wherever you go. And so what if a […]
ROADSTERS have played an important role in BMW’s history and the latest, all-new BMW Z4 is set to write another chapter in the open-top story.

But have Lexus compromised on the sporting credentials to maintain […]
IF you’re after a driver-focused, rear-wheel-drive , 2+2 coupe for under £30,000 then you could do worse than settle on the Subaru BRZ. You may be tempted to bust your budget slightly for a different badge and go for the Subaru’s stable mate, the Toyota GT86 but if you lean toward performance rather than comfort […]
The new Mazda MX-5 RF arrived the same day that the Jaguar F-Type Convertible was taken back and I couldn’t help but feel that I’d had the the main course before the starter. However, I soon came to realize that the fizzy little Mazda was more Yo-Sushi! Than Rump N Ribs Steakhouse and the two […]
The Fiat 124 Spider – more than just an MX-5 in a pretty dress . . . IF you are going to design a rear-wheel drive, 2-seater, rag-top sports car with a price-tag starting at less than £22,000 then you may as well base it on the best there is – and that is exactly […]
