Staggering Superleggera
THE ASTON MARTIN DBS SUPERLEGGERA IS NOTHING SHORT OF STAGGERING. ASTON MARTIN’S NEW FLAGSHIP IS WINNING FANS EVERYWHERE, INCLUDING THIS WRITER AFTER A MERE TWO DAYS IN ITS COMPANY. The DBS Superleggera is based on the same platform as the DB11, but don’t think for a moment it’s the same […]

A luxury lifesaver
FORTUNATE TO HAVE THE MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT FOR TWO WEEKS, I REALLY GOT TO USE IT TO ITS FULL CAPACITY. It’s one thing getting to drive something small and sporty, but when push comes to shove, the opportunity to take on a seven-seater with heaps of space ended up being a […]
Pretty darn brisk
THE NEW AUDI SQ7 IS A POWERHOUSE OF AN SUV. LET’S DIVE STRAIGHT INTO IT AND SEE HOW GOOD IT IS. On the outside, the standard Q7 has been given a stylistic nip and tuck by Audi’s S department, giving you a more square-jawed looking front and rear, along with […]

Ushered into to the boardroom, we were given an extensive breakdown of the specifications. It’s a seven-seat SUV with more spin than a very spinny thing! With a 3.0-litre […]

Fun with power
THE MITSUBISHI 20MY OUTLANDER HAS BEEN ONE OF THE MOST SURPRISINGLY ENJOYABLE DRIVES I’VE HAD THIS YEAR. The plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) gave a range of 55km and the average person drive 32kn a day in Christchurch, according to Christchurch Mitsubishi Fleet Sales Manager David Boyce. The sunroof was great […]
A Dynamic Drive
It is really hard not to be at least a little bit impressed with the new Honda Civic RS Sensing. While the last bit of the name does seem a tad strange at first, it becomes clear the tenth generation of one of Honda’s most cherished models, makes more ‘sense’ than ever […]
