Chevrolet are to unveil their new SUV, the Trax, at the Paris Motor Show next month which will be their debut into the competitive segment. And the vehicle certainly looks like a Chevrolet and has a modern, well-organised and flexible […]
The Paris Motor Show is a major event for new car launches and already the manufacturers are jockeying for position to grab the column inches. Today’s it’s the turn of Toyota who have decided that their new Auris will take […]
Ford has unveiled its small SUV, the B-Max – which is built on the Fiesta platform so that must be very small! The firm says it has a ‘break-through’ concept when it comes to the doors because they have done […]
Chinese cars, don’t you just love ‘em? You don’t, do you? Yours truly having spent a while in Southern China this summer, I’m aware that the quality of native Chinese carmakers isn’t quite up to par with the cars coming […]

The original Citroen DS might just be the most beautiful Citroen ever made – though it will feel the garlicky breath of the Traction Avant in its neck. From 1955 to 1975, the Frenchies sold almost 1.5 million of them. […]
Honda has unveiled the fourth generation of its excellent CR-V and is planning on grabbing a bigger market share. The British-built model is described as being a ‘perfectly centred balance between a car and an SUV’. Launched in the UK […]
Cars. Enjoy ‘em while they last. The European Commission will soon take all the fun out of them. From 2020 onward, any newly produced car is allowed to release a maximum of 95 grams per kilometre, equal to 152 grams […]
