We here at OVERSTEER get a lot of press releases from various places. A LOT. Some of them are pointless, but a lot of them are rather interesting. And sometimes they just have really awesome photos. Here’s the problem we have – we just don’t have the time to turn every good press release we […]

Welcome to OVERSTEER’s first “Photo Gallery Road Test”! This is where we present you with a selection of photographs of the vehicle in question (in this case the Land Rover Discovery Black) each with a paragraph or two about it. Across the gallery these will add up to the complete road test, just in a different […]
In this video a bunch of people are told that they are going for a ride in Nissan’s latest version of the Altima racing car. They are excited. Even when they see what appear to be some very lightly modified road cars. Even when they see the bizarre, obviously fake interiors. Even when they sit […]
Small and Medium SUVs are where it is at, in an automotive sense, with the demand for tall hatchbacks the little guys going through the roof. This has been a problem for Mercedes-Benz, especially in New Zealand. While they are on a roll in the luxury passenger car segment, they are lagging behind Audi and […]
Holden has announced the return of one of our favourite-ever hot hatches – the Astra VXR – along with a number of other European-sourced Opel/Vauxhall vehicles to wear the Holden badge in the down-under markets.

It doesn’t quite have the same ring to it in German, but Mini New Zealand is planning a remake of a famous scene from one of New Zealand’s most loved movies – the Lake Hawea chase scene from ‘Goodbye Pork Pie’ The scene will be re-cast with the winner from an online competition and a […]
Minis are fun – I think we all know that. The original Mini was a huge bundle of fun in a tiny, potentially deadly package, while the BMW interpretation of the Mini is almost as much fun in a far safer, more comfortable package. Now there is a new third-generation of the BMW Mini and […]
Curves, it seems, are currently in at Nissan. This is not to say that they didn’t have curves before, it’s just that now they are everywhere. Everything is sprouting the distinctive, curvy styling that was largely the domain of the big Murano, with even the big, butch Pathfinder recently falling victim to the current trend. […]
