2020 AMG A45S Review: It’s fun

The new burping hyper hatch from Mercedes, the AMG A45S, is everything the old car was with one extra feature – fun. Now, before you kick off, the old car was fun, but not in the way I like. It…

Hyundai Hypermiles Kona Electric for 1000km

Hyundai’s Kona electric SUV lapped the Lausitzring for a sleep-inducing thirty-five hours to cover over 1000km on a single charge. Hyundai doesn’t do things by halves these days. Two pure EVs and a whole new electric brand from having neither…

BMW M3 Wagon is Go. For Australia.

You might have caught me scolding BMW for not doing a fast wagon and it seems I’m a powerful man in this town (along with a zillion other people). The next M3 is surely going to be an absolute belter…

2020 Kia Stinger GT Carbon Edition Review

2020 Audi R8 V10 RWD Review

The Audi R8 RWS was by far my favourite of the R8 range and it seems a lot of people agreed. It’s back as the R8 RWD and I couldn’t be happier. Audi’s R8 has found a very special place…

2020 Audi RSQ3 Review

Since its release, the Audi RSQ3 has been one of the nuttiest cars on the road and the road is all the better for it. There’s a new one now, and it’s very good. Some years ago I sat in…

2020 Mini Countryman PHEV Review

The 2020 Mini Countryman PHEV is – I think – the only plug-in hybrid compact SUV on the market today and certainly the most fun. The Countryman – heck, the whole Mini range – cops a lot of stick for…
