Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Review – MancavE
Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Review New Zealand In my not so humble opinion, the idea or concept surrounding a mancave is essentially, escape. It’s a place to call your own. You can ‘design’ it yourself (and by that I mean fill it with every toy and gadget you can lay your hands on), turn up […]
Ford Mondeo ST Wagon Review – Easy to click with.
Ford Mondeo ST Wagon Review New Zealand (Well, for the most part). What seems like an age ago, I was lucky enough to be invited to the Australasian launch of the all-new Ford Mondeo and was suitably impressed. With its new design inside and out, coupled with tech and safety advancements, what’s not to like? […]
The McLaren Scorpio
Alright, so cards on the table, I’m still a big fan of the Simpsons. Regardless of how many times I seem to watch any episode, I still manage to see or hear something new from that crazy yellow family that makes me smile. Unfortunately however; I do manage to liken many real-life situations to scenes […]
Diamond geezer – Range Rover Velar Review
Range Rover Velar review New Zealand In cockney terms, a diamond geezer is a type of good bloke, a stand-up man, an all-round good sort, in other words, the Range Rover Velar.

Mazda’s Delicious Doritos

Top Cat – Jaguar F-PACE 25D R-Sport Review
Jaguar F-PACE 25D R-Sport Review New Zealand As a kid, the coolest cat I remember was Top Cat or T.C to his close friends. Sporting a Mauve pork pie hat and waistcoat, he and his gang of alley cats (Benny the Ball, Choo-Choo, Brain, Fancy-Fancy & Spook), ruled Manhattan from their home base in Hoagy’s […]
To the Manor Reborn – aka unearthing diamonds.
The opportunity arose to go and visit the Jaguar Land Rover Classic Works in Coventry and I seized it with both hands. Not only would it give me the chance to pore over such iconic cars as the E-Type and Land Rover Series one but it also came with the offer of being chauffeur driven […]
Minute Made – Honda UK.
Well 69 seconds to be exact. Having recently been behind the wheel of the latest Honda Civic hatch and the new (and impressive) Civic Type-R, it seemed only right to visit the Swindon plant to see where and how they had been created. Call me a bit of a geek if you like, but I […]
