I MUST admit to feeling a little torn when it comes to Electric Vehicles. I love the way EVs drive but I hate the charging infrastructure in the UK, which is utterly shocking (pun intended). And it’s not just the lack of forward-planning that tarnishes the EV-experience. Selfish individuals that park their diesel Audi A3 […]

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.

A replacement for the under-rated Infiniti G37 coupe, this V6-powered Q60S goes up against […]
WHEN the lovely people at Alfa Romeo UK agreed to lend me a £60,000, factory-fresh 4C Spider for the week I was (obviously) overjoyed. So, when my brother offered me a comparison drive of his 18-year-old Alfa Spider Twin Spark – which cost him just over a grand – I was, well . . . […]

After all, having a family shouldn’t mean you need to wave goodbye to driving pleasure. And if that family includes a dog there is always the Octavia vRS Estate. I say […]
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.
