When it comes to big luxury SUVs, they don’t come any bigger or more luxurious than the Range Rover. Many have tried, but none have beaten the British brand for either sheer luxury or prodigious off-road ability, let alone both in one package. We head over to Rotorua to check out the latest incarnation of […]
Recently we were lucky enough to spend four days with the mighty BMW M6 down in the South Island. This wasn’t a true road test – that will come later – what we were doing was taking it on a road trip from Christchurch to Dunedin, with a bypass on the way to check out […]
The following is a press release from the V8 SuperTourers that effectively answers a lot our questions about the future of the NZV8s. An entirely new Board of directors has been overwhelmingly elected to NZ Vee Eight Entrants Group Ltd, the company representing the interests of NZV8 race car owners.

OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Bentley Continental GT It isn’t every day that someone hands you the key to a $325,000 Bentley just after lunch and says “Go where you like, dinner is at 7.30”.

Once upon a time Audi said it would only ever have one RS model in its line up at any one time. Then people started buying quite a lot of them, so they changed their mind on that. We head out to Ardmore – via the winding roads of the Clevedon coast – to drive […]
The Volkswagen Amarok has been around for a couple of years now, but that hasn’t dulled the impact of just how damn good it is. It came in to the ute segment with a bang and drastically shook up the concept of just what it was we expected from our workhorses. They no longer had […]
Toyota New Zealand has announced a new model to the 86 line-up, adding a car that we all wanted them to have in the first place: the 86 RC, or “Race Competition” – a stripped-out entry-level model, ripe for customisation or conversion into a racing car! Toyota says the 86 RC “gives Kiwi sports car […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Renault Megane RS265 The Renault Megane RS265 is one of the hottest Hot Hatches currently available in the New Zealand market. We take one fresh off the Targa for a thrash. Well, what the hell did you expect us to do with it? Although recently all Renault has seemed to be capable […]
