The Volkswagen Amarok has been around for a couple of years now, but that hasn’t dulled the impact of just how damn good it is. It came in to the ute segment with a bang and drastically shook up the concept of just what it was we expected from our workhorses. They no longer had […]

OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: BMW X6 xDrive40d BMW has always taken a quiet approach to mid-life refreshments of its vehicles, even down to the term it uses to describe them. Where pretty much everyone else calls it a facelift, BMW prefer the term “Life Cycle Impulse” or LCI for short (and because they also love acronyms…) […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Subaru Legacy X The new Subaru Legacy sedan range-topper is a slightly unusual beast – it is a sedan with the increased ride-height of crossover. Fully-loaded with tech and toys, the Legacy X may look a bit odd and fill an extraordinarily narrow niche, but it is quite convincing… Alright, I will […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Honda Euro Civic L There is a strange mental disconnect when you approach the Honda Euro Civic hatch for the first time. You find yourself slightly confused. Surely, you think to yourself, this can’t be in any way related to the other car to carry the Civic name, that dull, uninspiring sedan […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Audi A5 Sportback 3.0 TDI quattro If one was feeling particularly unkind, it would be easy to suggest that the Audi A5 Sportback is an answer to a question that nobody had asked.

Probably because it sounds far more sexy and exciting that “five-door hatch”. The diminutive A1 […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Lexus RX 350 F Sport The Lexus RX 350 used to be a bit funny looking. And was about as much fun to drive as a bucket of sick on a roller skate. But thanks to the addition of an F Sport kit, this is no longer the case. We spend a […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Audi Q3 2.0TDI quattro Audi’s baby SUV blends A3 size with Q5 looks, which sounds a bit odd. And let’s face it; it does look a bit odd too. But how does it drive? We spend a few days with one to find out. White is not the Audi Q3’s best colour. […]
OVERSTEER ROAD TEST: Toyota Avensis Wagon There hasn’t been a Camry wagon for some time now; the Avensis is the car that has filled that gap, but does it deserve to be as relatively anonymous as it is? We take a quick look and decide. The Toyota Avensis is essentially what passes for a Camry wagon these […]
