MINI In Name Only | MINI John Cooper Works Hatch
In the past, if you wanted the hottest MINI, you could only get it with three pedals. Now the John Cooper Works range comes paired with an autobox that works (pardon the pun) surprisingly well!
Seventh Heaven? | BMW ActiveHybrid 7
BMW’s answer to Lexus’ LS600hL is the ActiveHybrid 7, a large premium hybrid that offers both luxury and performance. From our time with the car, it seems to have succeeded in fulfilling both claims.
Perfect Date | Audi S5 Coupe 3.0T
The Audi S5 got a refresh recently, we take one out on a date and remember why this is one of our favorite Audis.
Screaming Tangerine | Ford Focus ST

Tick One | Volkswagen Tiguan 1.4 TSI
Who would have thought? A 1.4-litre engine in a chunky sport utility vehicle (SUV)! That has got to be a really anemic drive for sure? Well, don’t knock it till you’ve tried it, is all we can say.
BMW 7 Series In Borobudur

The Angry Car | Volkswagen CrossPolo 1.2 TSI
Launched at a time of high COEs, the trendy and well-packaged Volkswagen CrossPolo misses out on being found in more homes. You can see why it’s not too happy about that.
Class Act | Audi A1 Sportback 1.4 TFSI
Audi’s A1 was once considered a vain effort to meddle with Mini’s pie, but now in 5-door guise, it’s turning into quite the proposition.
Are You Imprezed? | Subaru Impreza 1.6
Subaru’s new bread and butter sedan could not be launched at a worse time. High COEs and a market filled with many more alternatives. It has to be really special to stand out.
