As most of you probably know Land Rover have been part of Jaguar for a fair old time now. Together JLR have gone from strength to strength, especially when it comes to big beefy 4×4 sales. So it seems strange that Jaguar are launching their first SUV, after all they have the market pretty tied […]
Jeep have had a bit of a tough time of late, but the new Renegade aims the marque at a younger market. Competitively priced and already taking a slew of awards – including best 4×4 of 2016 we took one for a spin. Looks The Renegade will be a marmite car. Some will love […]
Believe it or not Nissan actually have 80 years of experience in the pick up sector and sold over 14 million worldwide. But this new Navara NP-300 takes on some more soft roader, crossover cues than the outgoing model. We jumped in one and took to the Yorkshire moors. Starting at £18,376 the NP300 (it’s […]
When we saw the XC90 in the flesh at Geneva last year we just thought – wow. Such modern looks combined with a big, beefy road presence. 12 months later and we are sitting behind the wheel. Starting from £46,250 the XC90 is pitched lower than a Range Rover Sport but pretty much in line […]
Capitalising on the Range Rover Sport’s success Land Rover decided its trusty Discovery needed the same makeover. Enter stage left, the Discovery Sport. Unlike the Range Sport, the Disco Sport bears no resemblance to its predecessor – the outgoing Discovery. It is a completely new design from a fresh family tree, and it could be argued […]
When you think of Suzuki as a car brand you wouldn’t normally associate them with racing or on track action. However, last year Suzuki supplied Radical with over a million pounds’ worth of motorcycle engines for their legendary track racers. In the same breath Suzuki have released their most potent Vitara model so far. The […]
Mitsubishi launched the ASX back in 2010, it was their first stab at the ever growing crossover market. It had a minor facelift in 2012 to beef up the front looks, but 5 years on how well does it stack up against the more modern competition? We took a 2.2 diesel 4wd for a spin […]

Every once in a while a manufacturer will push the design boundaries, a toe dip if you will into the unknown. It will either be lauded for its bold statement or left on showroom floors putting off buyers. Very few make such bold design choices, and they happen with invariable irregularity. Recently Lexus have come […]
Volvo’s XC60 has been around for a while now, 7 years in fact. It has had a facelift along the way, but with all new XC90 just hitting the streets how well does the current XC60 stack up amongst new competition. We took the 190 BHP D4 for a spin in the R-Design trim level. […]
Last time we drove an Evoque we purely tested it in an urban environment, this time we thought it would be a good idea to test its off road ability. We went for exactly the same engine as last time. The 2.2 litre SD4 with 187 BHP. But this time it is fitted with the […]
So you are 30something married with maybe a kid or two. You enjoy the great outdoors and want a car to help you enjoy life. Seat think they have the car for you. Seat invited us along to the Forest of Dean to try out the new soft-roader version of the stylish Leon ST. The […]
Suzuki launched the last Vitara in 2005…a replacement has been long overdue. With our Grand Vitara review being one of our most popular, we headed off to Portugal to check out the all-new 2015 Vitara. Powered by either 1.6 litre petrol, or a 1.6 litre diesel the Vitara will go on sale in April starting […]
