OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Hyundai i40 Elite sedan We here are OVERSTEER are more than familiar with the Hyundai i40 in its wagon form, so what does the sedan version bring to the party?

OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Subaru Impreza WRX Crouching Tiger Edition While the new Impreza is upon us there is a conspicuous absence of a WRX version – this is because there will be no more Impreza WRX’s. Instead, the WRX badge is being spun off as a separate model – much like Nissan did with the […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Toyota Land Cruiser 70 Series LX double cab It is big, it is square and it is white. It is not a fridge, although if it had one, that is the only thing that would make it cooler. It is the Land Cruiser 70 Series and it it still as awesome as […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Porsche 911 Carrera 4S While the overall shape hasn’t exactly evolved a lot over 50 years, the bits stuffed underneath the familiar shape have got better and better. And the familiar shape has, of course, had to grow to fit more bits and pieces jammed into it. This means the 911 is […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Holden Barina CDX It doesn’t happen very often, but sometimes a version of a car comes along that changes your original perception of it. The CDX version of the Holden Barina actually seems to be one of those cars… Originally, I didn’t like the Barina very much. It looked great, but was […]

It’s got a more sophisticated rear suspensions set up for a start, so it shouldn’t be as crap, right? Turns out that actually IS right! We take the Holden Colorado 7 for a […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Jaguar XF 2.0i4 It’s an XF, Jim, but not as we know it… The XF gets a boost from Ford. An EcoBoost, that is, as the XF becomes the latest car to appear on our shores with Ford’s fantastic 2.0-litre four-cylinder giant killer under its bonnet. Although Jaguar would prefer it if […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Volkswagen Beetle The second incarnation of the new version of a car originally conceived by a genocidal maniac and “designed” by a bloke who actually nicked the design off a another company is finally here. That’s right – the original Nazi fun-wagon is back! We take a Beetle for a blast! While […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: BMW M6 BMW’s M cars are, as a rule, rather special. Despite the company’s slightly confused attempt to add SUVs to the M line up, the ‘proper’ M cars (the ones with a single number after the M… or in the case of the 1M, before…) are still very much the heroes […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Aston Martin V8 Vantage While Bond is back in his DB5 for Skyfall, we got to experience the new look 2012 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Sportshift. Given we here at OVERSTEER are car obsessed James Bond fans, you could say we enjoyed that… While the Vantage hasn’t exactly had any real James […]
