car reviews

Introduced a decade ago, the Zafira now exists beside the Tourer in Vauxhall's line-up. If this is a hidden gem, the sparkle is now well-hidden...

The XJ is exactly what a Jaguar should be. It's green and good to drive

Meet the new WRX, same as the old Impreza. Still a hoot on the right road, still a pain on most others

Marred as the whipping boy of the VW Group, Seat has produced a highly credible MPV

Sorento's key draw is space and value for money. As a cut-price Disco alternative, we like it.

Pagani's follow-up to the Zonda is absolutely breathtaking

Second generation Cee'd estate illustrates the fast-developing maturity of the Korean giant. Near premium-look alternative to the Focus and Golf.

Ferrari California T-take two. It's boosted in more ways than one now: a vastly improved car

Peugeot needed to be bold to regain ground in a sector it once led. The 208 delivers

With the Astra GTC Coupe, Vauxhall offers a stellar combination of looks and drivability

Infiniti Q60 review: Audi A5 too ubiquitous? Here's something that will always be a rare sight

Simply enormous van-people-carrier thing from deepest Korea. Masses of room for eight, but sadly with all the on-road prowess you’d expect from something with the exterior dimensions of a bijou flat.

Not sophisticated, doesn't matter. M5 pace for M3 money

Renault has rediscovered its form with a loveable car in a class that lacks them

Everything we wanted a lightweight Italian sports car to be, right down to the traditional Alfa flaws

A thug in a suit that loves to go sideways. Old school cool

One of the most focused yet compliant track-minded road cars you can get. Utter witchcraft

The smallest 'proper' Aston, the Vantage manages to fit in full-fat Aston goodness

Kia builds a hot hatch. It's really rather decent. Swift, comfy, affordable - and just sporty enough.

Another unique niche: elegantly flexible and highly desirable, we're sold on the CLS

Nice-looking Vauxhall mini-MPV has a neat interior and that's about it. Can't hold a candle to a Yeti
