car reviews

The Mk4 Skoda Superb is the Czech firm’s best effort yet. Get one while you still can

Some cars some suit the transition from hatch to estate, but not the Astra. It’s that bit more lifeless and legroom barely grows

Ford's previous form in crossovers is a bit spotty. Spoiler alert: this one's a good 'un

Validates the idea of an electric hot hatch. Cheeky and fun, if not overly fast

Had enough of the family SUV? The E-Class proves there’s still plenty of life in the estate

The MG HS prioritises price and passenger comfort, but can’t compete with rivals when it comes to driving dynamics

A pleasing step on form the car it replaces, but you’re unlikely to be buying it for anything other than its remarkable pricing

The Nissan Qashqai gets some worthy improvements as part of a chunky facelift. Does the job admirably, not really one for the enthusiast. Obviously

A supremely complete crossover. And better to drive than it strictly needs to be

Familiar with the Golf? No surprises here, but there are plenty more interesting options out there

Relaxing to drive but infuriating to operate, the CLE is an old-school coupe spoiled by poorly integrated tech

The new MG 3 deserves its place at the supermini table. Good to drive, frugal to run, and cheap as they come

While the hybrid UX is a smart, comfortable and efficient family runabout, it's not without its flaws

While others play catch-up on EV estates, this Peugeot is the best value all-rounder you can currently buy

Peugeot’s largest SUV is a proper seven-seater with plenty of practicality and it looks stylish too

The supermini you buy because of how it looks inside and out, not because of what it costs or how it drives

If you like the mad looks of this second-generation C-HR, there's very little to count against it

A family crossover by numbers. Too much of a cliche and not individual. Battery and motor tech shows promise though

It’s spacious and finished well inside, but the 03 is let down by some fundamental issues

The new Scenic is spacious, efficient, and good-looking. But did Renault have to pinch the name from its fondly-remembered MPV?

All previous Corsas have reeked of mediocrity, but not this one. Pity about the interior though
