The new Vauxhall Astra heads up our extra-large reviews section this month. It’s the car that might just save GM Europe, but is it any good? We head into the depths of Wales to find out.
Also in Drives this month, we get lairy in the Mercedes E63 AMG estate, Mazda3 MPS, 911 Turbo, Vauxhall Insignia VXR estate and Nissan 370Z Roadster, and put our slightly-more-sensible hats on for the new BMW X1, Fiat Punto Evo, Skoda Superb Combi and a pair of Infinitis.
Oh, and AGCO Terragator. Yes, it’s as extreme as it sounds...
