What is very quick. Requires a lot of respect and drives like a Honda Jazz? A McLaren GT. I was fortunate enough to be invited to Millbrook testing ground for a gentle drive around 3 of the courses there. Coming from my daily van, approaching the GT was a bitRead More →
Electrification is the big “buzz” word right now with more and more manufactures turning to fully electric cars. Honda is one such group hoping to capitalise on this with a 6 model roll-out by 2022. Honda’s first arrival is the much talked about Honda e. A small city 5 doorRead More →
We didn’t get off to a good start with the Audi Q2. For your £37,095, there isn’t a lot of car for the money. In fact, it comes with not much kit at all. Yes, there is cruise control and aircon but it’s not climate controlled though that’s no lossRead More →

An SUV I Really Do Like. What Have We Got? Volkswagen’s T-Roc was launched last year and TGUK were there to test some of the first in the country. This time we are giving the Design 1.5 TSi DSG automatic for a week and I reflect if it was fairRead More →
What Have We Got? Here we have VW’s venerable Caddy van. Things in van land run at a slower pace and this Caddy, believe it or not, is the Mk3. The Caddy has been part of the VW catalogue since 1980, so what has it been doing with itself forRead More →
Here we have the 7th generation Vauxhall Astra. It’s been with us since 2015 and as a result it is still very much a Vauxhall designed product under General Motors. In 2017, Vauxhall was bought by PSA Groupe. There are 8 models to choose from in the Astra range, pricedRead More →
