Between now and the New Year XCAR will be releasing a series of “awards” videos capturing the best of the year! The first of these is the award is for Best Sound of the year, a critical part of what makes a car – particularly a performance car – appealing. We will have a couple of […]

Drew from XCAR gets his hands on the remarkable BRP Can-Am Maverick and takes the wild little beast for a solid blast in a paddock and on an off-road course. He also rolls it and learns a lesson… But to hell with that – we want one for Christmas now and nothing else will do. Plus […]
In their latest video Drew from XCAR takes a look at Aston Martin, including the DB5 and the Centenary Vanquish, as well as a quick history of the legendary company. The Aston Martin DB5 is probably one of the most famous car in the world. Drew takes a look at how Aston Martin got to the […]
On the surface the Skoda Octavia Scout could be just an Octavia wagon with added plastic bits, but in reality it is more than that. But even if it wasn’t, the Octavia is one of our favourite cars here at OVERSTEER (see here, here and here for proof of that…), so that would still make […]
The Holden Colorado wasn’t quite up to what we now expect from a new ute when it first came out, so not even a year and a half later the first update came out which improved things vastly. Now there is a new 2015 model that gains a few more tweaks. We head over to […]
The XCAR boys have a crack in the ultimate version of one of our favourite Hot Hatches, the Renault Megane RS, and take a look at the ongoing battle for FWD Nurburgring supremacy that the RS275 is involved in. Good stuff…

Ever heard of the Vencer Sarthe? No? Don’t worry, you really aren’t alone. Conceived by an ex-plumber from Holland, packing a huge V8 and absolutely no electronic driver aids, the Vencer Sarthe is an old-school supercar for the modern age. It costs more than a Ferrari 458, McLaren 650S or Lamborghini Huracan, but it is […]
Who? You might ask. Joop Donkervoort is the man behind one of the most insane and utterly awesome cars you can buy – the remarkable Donkervoort D8 GTO. A tribute to and logical modernisation of the Lotus Seven, the D8 GTO packs a 2.5-litre TFSI 5-cylinder turbocharged Audi engine, has a power output of between 250 […]
Citroen is doing things a bit differently with the launch of the C4 Picasso in New Zealand – rather than having a traditional media launch where journalists drive the car and get all the relevant information, the company has simply sent the info to us and booked in test drives in the New Year. So we […]
