Navman MiVue Drive LM review

It is no secret that dedicated portable satellite navigation unit manufacturers have been floundering around for direction over the last few years as GPS and navigation has become commonplace in smartphones. How do they present a compelling USP when a device most of us carry in our pockets all the time is muscling in on […]

QUICK DRIVE: Suzuki Swift Sport

We have always been HUGE fans of the Suzuki Swift Sport here at OVERSTEER – it is not only a small car with loads of character, Suzuki have actually made meaningful changes to the ordinary Swift to transform it into the Sport, as opposed to slapping some badges and a spoiler on it. It not […]

QUICK DRIVE: Renault Megane RS265

To be completely honest, there hasn’t been a hell of a lot that has changed about the Renault Megane RS265 since we last drove it, but it is the sort of car that when a company asks you if you want to drive it again, you simply don’t say no… Since our last experience in […]

QUICK DRIVE: BMW 435i Gran Coupe

Now, I must admit that I am something of a fan of the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe, despite its silly name, but even I seriously doubt that something like this ever happened: Customer: “Excuse me Salesman, do you have something like this [points to 3 Series sedan] but a bit lower and sportier?” Salesman: “Ah, […]

PHOTO GALLERY ROAD TEST: Subaru WRX STi

Okay, here it is – our latest Photo Gallery Road Test, this time of the Subaru WRX STi! Which may be slightly confusing because our last one was of a Subaru WRX… Actually, this one is of the hotter, nastier (in a good way) WRX STi, but there is still room for confusion. So why have […]

QUICK DRIVE: Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Overland

The Jeep Wrangler is no stranger here at OVERSTEER, in fact we would go as far as to say it is one of our all-time favourites, despite (or, indeed, perhaps even because of) its glaring – and, quite frankly, blatant – shortcomings as a road-going vehicle. Off-road, however, it is utterly unbeatable, and this, along […]

ROAD TEST: HSV Senator Signature

Car names. It is a tricky art getting it just right. Coming up with a name that invokes the spirit of the car is a very hard thing to do – the Ford Probe, for example, failed quite badly at that when, instead of invoking images of a cutting-edge machine used for space exploration, it […]

ROAD TEST: Kia Soul SX

The original Kia Soul was just okay. Behind all the gimmicky flashing speakers and unique looks hid a car that was largely half-baked and just not particularly good. It got by on largely by virtue of its big personality and surprising practicality, but other than that it hardly inspired excitement. The new Soul, however, is […]

ROAD TEST: BMW 435i

BMW makes very good cars. The latest 3 Series is a very good car indeed, so it would make logical sense that the 4 Series coupe that has been spun off the 3 Series would also be a very good car. That is not always the case though. But it is here. In fact, the […]
