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.

This is a proper sports car. Small, RWD, razor sharp and not encumbered by the stretch to pack too much power into its delicately perfect package, the Subaru BRZ (and its Toyota 86 twin) represent a purity of concept that is exceedingly rare these day. It is a car that has a single purpose in […]
While we have had the diesel versions of Volvo’s last Ford Focus-based small car for a number of months now, the petrol version have finally arrived. The diesels are perky performers with punchy engines and great handling, so what can the petrol-powered versions add to the mix? The answer to that question is; power, and […]
The return of the nissan Pulsar to New Zealand shores hasn’t exactly sent waves of rapture running through the country, but if visual sightings of the car on the road is anything to go by, then it has been accepted well by local buyers. And why not? It is very, very well priced and a […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Volkswagen Golf 77kW TDI Mention the Volkswagen Golf to any motoring dunderhead and they will tell you how it is the benchmark for all family hatchbacks, and they are right.

Regardless of whether you like the looks or not, it is such a striking automobile that expectations are going to raised or lowered simply by looking at it. Personally, we here at OVERSTEER love it. Now, we have been […]

The Suzuki Swift Sport is a simply brilliant little car. It has been a favourite of motoring journalists and actual buyers since its launch in 2005. Although the latest incarnation of the Swift was a very conservative, gentle revamping of the previous model, the latest-generation Sport bought even more driver involvement. Although its price has […]
