Seeing the Porsche Panamera in your driveway can fill you with a number of different feelings, largely depending on what angle you are looking at it from. Catch it front ¾, from down low and the 911-esque nose and wide, muscular stance makes it look sexy. However, catch it from the rear and slightly above […]

BMW recently unveiled a lavish facelift for the cars in the 3-series range that feature only two doors – the coupe and convertible, that is. Actually, scratch that, they played about a bit with the bumpers and tweaked a few other bits that you won’t notice and that’s pretty much it for the visual changes […]
What can be said about the Corolla that hasn’t really already been said before. Many, many times before. It’s a car. Not a particularly exciting car, but far from being offensively awful. Well engineered. Reliable. User friendly. Solid resale. A bit dull. Kind of like those processed, individually wrapped cheese slices really; you know what […]
So let’s get the obvious stuff out of the way first: the Isuzu D-Max is the same ute that we have known and loved here in New Zealand as the Holden Rodeo. And then as the Holden Colorado. The whole Rodeo/D-Max thing was a collaboration between Holden and Isuzu, until a few years ago when […]
Good news for everyone out there who looked at the top-spec Cruze CDX, admired the leather interior, high level of specification and chrome bits, but thought “Hmm… I just wish it was a bit noisier…” Well now it is, because Holden has made the CDX available with the 2-litre common-rail diesel engine, previously only available […]
Okay, so maybe things have gotten a bit too Mini-ish around here recently, but then they keep doing cool things… But this is probably the coolest of all – they have released photos of their official entry into the World Rally Championship. And just look at it! Okay, so when they first announced that the […]
“Would you buy a Mini-branded electric scooter?” was the question lobbed at Oversteer when the press release announcing just that possibility landed in our inbox the other day. “Dear God NO!” was the reply. Which is actually just the standard reply to any scooter-based questions, so rightfully applied here too. Until we wrapped our eyes […]
“Very low-slung, very sporty, and very rare”. That’s how Porsche are describing the new ultra-limited edition of the 911: the Speedster. One phrase they managed to leave out of that description, however, is “with a very fat arse” no doubt to conveniently avoid drawing attention to the rather ungainly extra rump action that the Speedster […]
Ken Block has again proved himself to be the most awesome man alive by releasing his latest Gymkhana3 video on YouTube. Nothing more needs to be said. Enjoy it…
Let me get this straight first; almost every single car in this list IS actually awesome. Hell, I’ve personally owned three of them! (No, I am not telling you which three…) Yet none of them really deserve the blind reverence that has be lavished upon them since their launch. Especially the Hummer, which is just […]
