The first thing you notice about the GL is that it is big. Very big. But don’t let that intimidate you, because lurking inside that huge, towering behemoth is a remarkably capable vehicle that literally does everything it can to help you handle the massive size. The second thing you notice about the GL is […]

The start of Day Three of our Rubicon adventure blurs rather fuzzily into the end of Day Two, thanks largely to a feisty little Canadian beverage called “Fireball”. A cinnamon whisky that just keeps on giving, it proves rather too easy to drink and the common sense that suggests an early night is soon consumed […]
The first thing that surprises you about the Rubicon Trail is the fact that, during the weekend it is like a main highway, with a simply staggering amount of traffic going in both directions. These are without exception highly modified beasts and they range from beaten, rusting hulks on massively hiked suspension through to completely […]
Sweet Jesus, Cletus, for people who consume so much coffee, they really do struggle to make a halfway decent cup of the stuff in America. Quantity is no problem, but quality is a rare commodity in the US of A. While requesting “a bucket of your finest coffee-flavoured swill” may not seem like the […]
The first day of our great off-road adventure was almost the exact opposite of what you would think of when you tell people you are heading into the wilds of the Sierra Nevada in Jeeps to traverse the most legendary off-road track of them all. There was no dust, no rocks, no bears. The sounds […]
Take one already exceptionally good car and throw a whole lot of extras at it for surprisingly little money and you should sell a bunch more of them. At least, that seems to be how it works for BMW these days. And who is going to argue with them, because in addition to a very […]
As happens quite often these days, following the range-topping (and more expensive) sporty A250, the absolute pick of the new A-Class range is the humble diesel variant; the A200 CDI. Why? Well, it really comes down to one thing; torque, and the A200CDI’s wonderful spread of its big, fat lump of torque that sees it […]
It’s a new Commodore, but is the world interested in any way? Well, the sales figures suggest that at least a few are, but nowhere near as many as there used to be. That is a shame because the VF is undoubtedly the best car that has ever come out of Australia. Packed with cutting […]
With the new Accord Honda has taken the best parts of both previous Accords – the Accord V6’s plush ride and the Accord Euro’s sharp handling – and combined them to make a thoroughly convincing package. It has its flaws, but the new Accord truly is one of the most impressive cars to come from […]
While the Citroen C4 Aircross is probably the most overlooked of the Mitsubishi ASX-based triplets – along with the Peugeot 4008 and the ASX itself – it is almost certainly the best looking of the three. Looks ARE subjective, but we here at OVERSTEER rather like the C4 Aircross for its distinct twist of Citroen-quirk […]
