car reviews

It may be a baby crossover for the fashion conscious but it's all Range Rover at heart

Peugeot can at last lay the ghost of the 205 GTI to rest. This is a very able modern hatch

Mondeo man has grown up and discovered the finer things in life. Less fun, but more satisfying overall

The big-brother to the regular Fiat 500 is roomier and more family-friendly. Nice work, Fiat

Big new Mini aims to be less of a curio and more of a family hatch alternative

Breathes even more fire but is now able to deploy it with more finesse.

A dinosaur from the masters of hybrid tech. Beautifully built, but feels old hat alongside newer, more economical rivals

Volvo hits the premium hatch format on the head: the V40 is an impressive model that's a genuine Golf rival

Ford B-Max review: Ford finally joins the mini-MPV fray with a clever car packed with potential.

Facelifted Audi Roadster features revised engines, tweaked visuals – and very little amusement

The Verso has a smart new look and is better to drive. Pity interior space isn't better

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...

A fleet-footed boisterous hot hatch that's no longer a one-trick pony

New version of Merc's most massive SUV: is it now ready to topple the Range Rover?

A little better than the monstrosity that was the Frontera, but expensive and unrefined. Not vauxhall's finest hour

Think of this as a Yeti made over as an MPV. And made uglier. Interior is well-shaped and eminently usable.

All-new C4 Picasso is comfier and more versatile than the SUV crossovers that are all the rage

Good to drive and more versatile than a standard 5-Series, but the 5GT remains one of BMW's biggest mistakes. Buy a 5-Series Touring instead

Infiniti would like its Q70 to take the fight to BMW and Mercedes class leaders. Sadly, it isn't up to their lofty standards

Huge, hugely comfortable, hugely luxurious and hugely expensive

Great-looking and groaning with tech, if a bit stolid on the road, the A7 takes the fight to the Merc CLS and wins
