Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk – Off the page
Located in the Sierra Nevada desert, West of the beautiful Lake Tahoe California is a 35km part road part 4×4 trail called Rubicon. The Rubicon trail is an unforgiving ride through treacherous arid and rocky countryside along a route that demands the best from any vehicle that dares to venture up it – just the […]
Kia Niro – Cross Traffic
The Kia Niro brochure boasts of this planet saving hybrid doing 3.8Litres/100km, which all sounds well and good but these numbers can often only be achieved in ‘ideal’ conditions and environments and not REAL world. I (accidentally) made the Niro’s efficiency part of my review and I’m actually pleased I did. Ask any commuter and […]
New Holden Astra – European takeaway
Europe’s population is estimated to be around 750million (give or take the UK) and its land mass covers roughly 10 million km (again give or take the UK). Most of the population tends to congregate around major cities; which despite the ever changing people vs land equation, still leaves a fair amount of unattended land. […]
Ferrari California T Handling Speciale – Everyday Attraction
Just like Supermodels, Supercars are there to be exalted. They grace the pages of glossy magazines, posters of them adorn walls of pubescent youths (and sometimes older folk) and are leered at lustfully whenever possible. We covet them, desire them and crave knowledge about them, often seeking out and rating their performance against others in […]

You can be relatively sure it’s going to be stylish and good looking (inside and out), it’s going to be technologically advanced, prestigious and undoubtedly well designed to fit the market perfectly. So you can […]
Kia Optima GT – Powerful Family
Families come in all shapes and sizes (Even I have one) but throughout history, there have some families that have seemingly controlled more than their fair share of the world – they are surnames that can be famous or infamous but are ultimately synonymous with power. The likes of Rothschild (Banking), Kennedy (Politics), Corleone (Mafia […]
Mercedes-Benz GLC 250 Coupe review – Blue Steel
Have you ever wondered how there are some people that never have a bad photo taken of them? Their social media feeds or even family pics for that matter always seem to catch these people at their best. Well rest assured, like everything else; for most of them it takes work. From Models and wannabee […]
Maserati Levante Launch – Bet the Farm
On the whole; when you think of farm vehicles images of rusted out tractors, harvesters or hay balers come to mind. These are workhorses that get up before the crack of dawn and work until the early hours – not exactly glamorous but definitely get the job done. When you think of farms themselves, they […]
Lexus IS Launch – Intelligent Sports
When you think of intelligent sports, things like Chess, Card games, Apps or maybe even a Spelling Bee (not sure that is a sport) spring to mind. But in actual fact most sports need more than just a modicum of smarts. Quick hand/eye coordination, rapid reflexes, quick decisions all require a quick mind. Out thinking […]
