This month, we also take a first look at the stunning new Ferrari 488 Spider: no roof, still turbocharged, still very, very fast.

We drive the 'best McLaren since the F1', the mighty 675LT, while Ken Block takes us for a spin in the new Ford Focus RS, and we attack the Pennines in the Jaguar F-Type Project 7.

You’ll also find in-depth reviews of all the new cars that matter this month, including the Fiat 500, Audi R8, BMW X1, Lotus Evora 400, Porsche Boxster Spyder and the Mercedes-Benz GLC.
