Big change awaits the
911 and the rest of
Porsches sports cars

Porsche is right at
the top of its game

CAST A QUICK eye over our ratings at the back of this


magazine for the current Porsche line-up and youll soon
be overwhelmed by superlatives. The Boxster is scarily
brilliant, the Cayman a five-star car by any measure, the
911 more than worthy of its iconic status and it goes on,
all the way to the Macan and Cayenne SUVs and Panamera.
As youll read in our scoop story (p10), Porsche is pushing
ahead with an expansion and redefinition of its sports car
line-up, as well as squaring up to the thorny issue of selling
turbocharged engines in normal 911s later this year. Casting
aside 52 years of naturally aspirated heritage would be
daunting for most car companies, but Porsche has navigated
choppier waters with barely a wobble in recent years.
It might be tempting to take Porsches consistent high
standards for granted, but that would be a mistake. At
the heart of this company is a steely focus on engineering
brilliance, and while that may not
set the pulse racing like some of
the more haphazard offerings from
more flamboyant rivals, it underpins
what will surely be viewed by history
as a golden era for the firm.

eve of the Geneva show on 2
March, nine months after its
original launch date was put
back by the need to address
the engine fire issue that had
afflicted the standard GT3.
Porsches boss of research
and development, Wolfgang
Hatz, is promising the biggest

gap yet between an rS model


and the GT3 version upon
which it is based.
although the new car, like
all other rS models, will be
lighter than the GT3, most of
the interest will focus on its
aerodynamics which are
said to provide a new level of
downforce for a road-going
911 and an all-new engine
producing around 500bhp. for
comparison, the standard GT3
model has 468bhp.
Porsche hasnt revealed the
look of the 911 GT3 rS, but spy
photographs suggest it will

join the 911 Turbo in using the


widest of the three 911 bodies
and will have air intakes in the
rear wings and lift-reducing air
outlets above the front wheels.
Winter weather has
precluded the setting of
representative lap times

around the Nrburgring during


the cars recent development.
However, Porsches
simulations show the 911 GT3
rS to be comfortably capable
of lapping in under 7min

18sec lap recorded by the most
powerful 911 to date, the 611bhp
twin-turbo GT2 rS of 2011.
It is not yet known whether
the GT3 rS will be offered with
a manual gearshift, a PDK
dual-clutch automatic or a
choice. Porsche appeared to
have abandoned three-pedal
GT models when it made the
911 GT3 PDK only, but it seems
to have had second thoughts,
making the Cayman GT4
available exclusively with a
manual gearbox for now.
a PDK transmission seems
the most likely because it is

vital for the all-important


Nrburgring lap time, but the
choice of a manual option is
now believed to be a distinct
possibility, as opposed to
non-existent.
However, it is Porsches
decision to design a new engine
for the GT3 rS that is the
most significant development.
Thats because by the end
of the year and in a rather
different state of tune, this new
engine will also be standard
issue in all conventional 911s.

the GT3 rS, all normal 911s

that use this engine will be

turbocharged.
Porsche has yet to reveal
the size or power output of
the new unit, but the use
of forced induction for the
standard 911 after 52 years of
normal aspiration is motivated
far more by the need to
reduce fuel consumption and
emissions than to provide
additional power.
The engine is expected to
deliver a modest power boost,
substantially more torque
and significantly better CO2
emissions and fuel economy.
However, dont expect a
new naming strategy. There
are turbocharged models in
both the Macan and Cayenne
ranges that do not bear Turbo
badging, so expect the same
approach for the new 911.
The new engines will arrive
this autumn complete with
the other, less significant
enhancements of a standard
mid-life refresh. There is a
four-cylinder version of the
new engine that was for a long

time considered for the 911,


but Hatz concluded that a 911
must have a flat six motor, so
the four-pot will be restricted
to the boxster and Cayman.
That said, there is a
precedent for a four-cylinder
911, Porsche producing just
such a car (called the 912)
between 1965 and 1969.
During that time, more than
30,000 units were sold,
making the cut-price entrylevel model a considerable
success, so perhaps it should
not be ruled out for ever.
at the other end of the
scale, a limited-edition GT2
rS is on the cards. Just 500
examples of the previous one
were made and sold out in two
months, despite a 165,000
price. Our customers always
tell us they want more power,
said Hatz. at Porsche, we
listen to our customers.
However, the new GT2 rS
is likely to be scheduled for
the end of the current 911s
lifecycle, making it at least
two years away.

Supercar with a midmounted V8 is due to


appear before 2020

In the meantime, Porsche is


also working on a brand-new
supercar to compete with the
likes of the ferrari 488 GTb
and McLaren 675LT. Hatz has
said it will be ready by the end
of the decade at the latest.
Details are patchy, but the
car is believed to feature the
brand-new V8 motor already

in development for the new


Panamera, its 928-replacing
two-door variant and the
next Cayenne.
Mounted amidships behind
the driver, the engine is likely
to follow current thinking
and derive its power as
much from turbocharging
as its displacement. It is not

yet known whether the car


will feature any degree of
hybridisation, but it is clear
that this is not a replacement
for the 918 Spyder hypercar
but a standard, production
model. Hatz has, however,
also confirmed that a new 918
will eventually be built.

Mazda plans all-new RX-7

A new rotary-engined coup based on the lightweight MX-5 platform is in development; launch is expected

azda is planning to
launch a rotaryengined coup in
2020, to coincide
with the companys 100th
anniversary.
The coup, a successor to
the RX-8, will be based on
the new, lightweight, fourthgeneration MX-5 platform
and, like past RXs, be frontengined and rear-wheel drive.
Mazda wont confirm
the RX-7 project. However,
Kenichiro Saruwatari,

vice-president of European
R&D and based in Japan until
18 months ago, told Autocar
that the company retains a
department of 30 engineers
developing rotary engine
projects and hinted that
theyre working towards the
firms significant birthday.
Because the rotary
engineering team is relatively
small, Mazda also employs
the services of Japanese
universities. Mazda has
found, like Honda did during

the HondaJet project, that


academics are better at
maintaining confidentiality
than commercial partners.
Its also working with NASA
on material technologies. The
American aeronautics and
space agency specified the
material for the rotor tips of
the RX-8s rotary engine.
Theres no word on engine
capacity or power outputs
at this stage but, from a
marketing perspective, any
rotary-engined sports car

would need to be more potent


than the most powerful MX-5,
which will have a 2.0-litre
four-cylinder engine making
upwards of 160bhp.
The now-defunct RX-8 had
a twin-rotor 1.3-litre engine,
which, because there are two
combustion cycles per engine
revolution, in effect gave it a
2.6-litre capacity and a power
output of 228bhp.
Mazda is virtually alone
in the automotive industry
in persisting with rotary

engines, which are smooth


and high revving and have a
high specific output but have
little torque and can suffer
from rotor tip wear and excess
fuel and oil consumption.
Mazda appreciates the
technical, marketing and
recruitment advantages that
its persistence brings and
thinks a high-power, lowtorque engine would sit well in
the light MX-5 platform.
The lightest MX-5 will weigh
less than a tonne and the

Focus RS blazes trail for all-wheel-drive hot Fords


ThE nEw FoRd Focus RSs
pioneering four-wheel drive
system will be installed in more
cars, raising the prospect of
other performance-orientated
all-wheel-drive Ford models.
Fords all-wheel drive with
dynamic Torque Vectoring
system is the most significant
mechanical upgrade for the
new Focus RS over previous
generations of the car, both of
which were front-wheel drive.
weve done the hard part
in developing it to production,
said RS engineering manager
Tyrone Johnson. It would be

fair to suggest that well be


looking to use the technology
in other ways.
The awd system is based
around twin electronically
controlled clutch packs
alongside the Rear drive
unit. The Rdu operates like
a limited-slip differential and
uses sensors that monitor
conditions 100 times per
second to distribute power
continuously between the
front and back wheels and on
either side of the rear axle. up
to 100% of the available torque
can be sent to either wheel.

14 AUTOCAR.CO.Uk 11 FEBRuaRy 2015

The system diverts torque


to the outer rear wheel
during cornering, aiding
turn-in and stability. Ford
says this virtually eliminates
understeer, and that lateral
grip in excess of 1g is possible.
another staple aspect of the
Ford RS range will be manual
gearboxes. The firms global
product development boss,
Raj nair, confirmed that the
Focus RS will retain a six-speed
manual box. our current
research says customers really
like these kinds of cars to have
a manual gearbox, he said.

Mazda ponders MPS models but ditches MPV
New coup is likely
to be a two-seater and
revive the RX-7 name

for 2020

MAzDAS MPS HIgHperformance brand remains


on hold as the company
evaluates exactly what sort
of models it wants to launch
under the MPS badge.
Speaking to Autocar at
the launch of the new Mazda
2, the cars chief engineer,
Ayumu Doi, revealed that
MPS was a brand Mazda
was always investigating
as it tried to establish how
the performance arm would
work under Mazdas new
Skyactiv technology banner.
Doi said MPS was not
dead and the firm was
evaluating how it could
further extend its fun to
drive mantra with a new
MPS performance model, of
which the 2 was one likely
candidate.
Mazda has yet to establish
exactly what an MPS model
will be within the Skyactiv
range. The firm could opt
for purely more powerful
models, or models that place
an emphasis on improved

MPS cars are on hold while Mazda decides how to use the brand
driveability, such as the
Suzuki Swift Sport, or a
combination of both like
Fords Fiesta ST.
Whatever the outcome of
the research, Doi revealed
that any future MPS model
would use uprated versions
of existing Skyactiv
componentry rather than
any bespoke parts.
The Mazda 5 will soon go
out of production and will
not be replaced, company
officials have confirmed.
The popularity of this
seven-seat MPV has been
diminished by five-seat and

seven-seat SUVs, and sales


of the model now stand only
in the hundreds every year
in the UK.
The 5 is still available to
order and models do remain
in stock, but production
is being now wound down
and no replacement is
forthcoming.
Once the new MX-5
reaches the UK in August,
the 5 will be the only Mazda
not built on or powered by
its Skyactiv technology,
and given the popularity of
SUVs, the decision has been
taken by Mazda not to build
another MPV.

to coincide with Mazdas 100th anniversary


architecture is one that Mazda
is keen to exploit. How well
it can be scaled will dictate
whether the RX-8 successor
will have +2 rear seats, but
Saruwatari said Mazda is too
small a company to develop
another sports car platform.
An RX-9 name is unlikely
for the new car. Mazda is said
to prefer a return to RX-7
instead, because the new
model is likely to be a twoseater. RX-7 is also a more
iconic name. However, RX-6

is also the cards to indicate its


smaller, purer positioning.
Saruwatari also confirmed
that the planned joint venture
with Fiat, under which the
Italian car maker will produce
its own roadster on that
platform, is ongoing. It wont
use Mazda engines, though,
and you would have to ask
them which badge it will have.

Suzuki fixes Celerio brake fault

The firm says it has solved the problem that caused brake failures in Autocar and What Car? tests

uzuki is working to
resolve an issue with the
braking system on its
new Celerio hatchback,
following brake failure on two
cars during testing by What
Car? and Autocar.
A Suzuki spokesperson told
Autocar: We have a solution
to the problem. It has been
worked on within Suzuki
Motor Corporation. More
details about the fix and when
it will be carried out on the
affected cars will be made
available soon.
It is understood that the
failure is within the brake

pedal assembly and that the


affected part is fitted to only
right-hand-drive Celerios
sold in the UK, the Republic
of Ireland, Australia and New
Zealand. Cars sold in India
and Thailand are not affected,
Suzuki has confirmed.
With regards to UK cars,
we established that 37 had
left dealers. We captured
them very quickly and they
are all off the road, said the
spokesperson. We also halted
all dealer demonstrations and
other related events.
Suzukis attention was
drawn to the problem following

independent Autocar and


What Car? testing of its new
budget hatchback. During
an emergency stop test, the
Celerios brakes failed entirely,
with the brake pedal remaining
in the fully depressed position
yet having no effect on the
cars speed.
Suzuki promptly arranged
for collection and inspection of
the failed car and also supplied
a second car so that testing
could continue. However, the
second car suffered the same
failure and the matter was
then quickly escalated within
the company.

Suzuki wants to be
completely transparent and
show it has reacted as quickly
as possible to the problem.
Suzuki wants to get it fixed and
get customers back in their
cars, said the spokesperson.

This problem has 100 per


cent of our attention. Suzuki
Motor Corporation is keen to
show its honesty and how it
has fixed the problem, added
the spokesperson.

Civic Type R: 167mph conf


More images and details of Hondas mega-hatch have emerged, including the provisional confirmation of a

onda has released the


first official details of its
new Civic Type R ahead
of its Geneva motor show
debut early next month.
The top speed has been
provisionally confirmed as
167mph, which would be enough
to make the Civic Type R
class-leading against its frontwheel-drive hot hatch peers.
Power will come from a
turbocharged 2.0-litre VTEC

engine. Outputs have yet to be


confirmed, but insiders have
previously quoted figures of
300bhp and 300lb ft.
Helping the Civic Type R
to reach that top speed are
several aerodynamic aids,
sculpted as a result of both
extensive wind tunnel testing
and computer simulations.
Honda promises exceptional
high-speed stability and high
levels of downforce from

these features, which include a


flat underside, a front splitter,
rear diffuser, large rear wing
and deep side skirts. The front
bumper has also been designed
to cut turbulence at the front
wheels, reducing drag.
The complete car is not
visible in any single image
that Honda has released,
but cropped pictures reveal
a 7000rpm redline for the
engine on the rev counter, as

well as a +R button next to the


steering wheel that improves
engine responsiveness,
tweaks the torque mapping
to a more aggressive and
performance-focused setting,
increases the responsiveness
of the steering and stiffens the
adaptive dampers.
Another cropped image
reveals the 19in alloy wheels
fitted to the Civic Type R and

Hyundai and Kia poised with new compact SUVs

THE NEW HYUNDAI Tucson


will make its global debut at
the Geneva show next month
and has been previewed in
this official design sketch.
The Tucson compact
SUV will replace the ix35
in Hyundais line-up. It is
described as a big step
forward for the Hyundai
brand globally by the firms
design boss, Peter Schreyer,
who also said the model has
a bold and athletic presence
and a proud stance.
The sketch shows that
the new five-door Tucson
will carry many of the
design hallmarks seen in the
Hyundai range, in particular

the firms large central grille,


as seen on the new Genesis.
Hyundai retired the Tucson
name in Europe in 2010 with
the launch of the ix35. The
names return reflects the
fact that the new SUV will be
sold in global markets.
Production of the ix35 is
due to finish this summer,
Autocar understands, so the
Tucson is likely to be on sale
before the end of the year.
Hyundai sister firm Kia is
also preparing a new version
of the Sportage, which will
share its underpinnings with
the new Tucson.
The Sportage will take
styling cues from the KX3

previewed a model aimed at

to get a revised rear bumper.
A new powertrain option
will be offered in the Sportage
alongside revised versions
of the current 1.6-litre petrol
and 1.7-litre and 2.0-litre
diesel engines. This could
be either a pure electric

Honda to think global, not local


HONDA IS GRADUALLY
shifting its product
development policy away
from developing regional
models to producing cars
to suit all world markets.
According to wellplaced insiders, Honda has
concluded that its policy
of producing regional
variations of models, or
models specifically for
certain regions, has not
been as successful as it
had hoped, so it will now
develop models suitable
for sale around the world.
The fact that tastes are
to some extent merging
across the regions is also
driving Hondas decision.

Honda is also likely to
source each major model

Lotus Evora revised


for a March debut

THE FACELIFTED LOTUS Evora


has been spotted undergoing
final testing ahead of its
planned public debut at the
Geneva show next month.
The British sports car firm
has already confirmed that
it will show a lighter, more
powerful version of the Evora
in Geneva, a move that could
further strengthen its recent
sales turnaround.
These latest spy pictures
reveal that styling changes will
be relatively minor and focused
mainly on reprofiled front and
rear bumpers. A
more prominent
front grille can also
be seen. Inside,
Lotus looks set to
keep its twin-dial
cockpit layout,
although minor
improvements to
materials and trim
are expected.
Lotus chief

executive Jean-Marc Gales


has told Autocar that the 2015
Evora will have about 15%
more power and less weight
than the outgoing model, as
well as gaining the styling
changes seen in these spy
photographs.
The current Evora is powered
by a 3.5-litre V6 engine, which
is available in both naturally
aspirated and supercharged
forms. The standard car
offers 276bhp and 258lb ft of
torque, rising to 345bhp in the
supercharged Evora S.

alternative to the 650S and, as such, will have a range
of performance enhancements.
The new model produces 666bhp and 516lb ft from
its 3.8-litre twin-turbo V8, which has been revised and
features lightweight components and new turbos.
The 675LT will be revealed in full at the Geneva motor

Carlos Ghosn said renault

available in both five-seat and


seven-seat guises, neither
option will come to the uK in
the short term.
Ghosn believes the Kadjar
crossover, renaults version
of the Nissan Qashqai, will give
the renault-Nissan alliance
a scale advantage no one can
match once it reaches full
production in Spain and China.
Speaking exclusively to
autocar after unveiling the
Kadjar in Paris last week,
Ghosn described the car as
an extremely strong product
and a huge opportunity for
renault. However, he was
evasive about predicting the
size of its success.
Could this become the
best-selling Renault of all?
Thats hard to say. Weve
tested it with customers and
distributors and the response
has been extremely strong.
It reminds us of the response
we had to its sister, the Captur
crossover, before that model
went on sale. and as you know,
Captur now leads its class in
france and across europe.
What I can say is that
Kadjar will be great at

competing with our rivals. It


shares a common platform with
Qashqai, and this means we
can compete with the worlds
biggest car companies. Our
competitiveness in terms of
investment and parts cost
should be close to the best.
How important is the Kadjars
styling to its success?
Its vital. This game will be
played on the attractiveness
of the product. We believe
Kadjar has the same styling
appeal as Captur, but we have
no customers yet, so we cant
be certain. With Captur, we had
very good feedback, but it was
nothing compared with what
we have achieved in sales.
Do you believe the crossover
market will last?
It will remain strong. These
models offer great versatility,
and all our research tells
us people really enjoy that.
Whether the trend will last 10
or 15 years I cant say, but for
the foreseeable future which
means the next four or five
years we think demand will
be strong, not just in europe
but around the world. Cars like

these make up one sale in four


across the world, and one in
three in China.
How are recent currency shifts
affecting your companies?
The volatility began two years
ago, and the effect then was
negative on both our revenues
and our income. even though
the euro has recently moved
the right way against the
pound and dollar, were still in
adverse territory because of
really large declines in russia
and argentina.
How bad are things in Russia?
everyone is hurting. The
market was down 11 per cent
last year and is forecast to
drop another 20 per cent this
year. Thats a third of it, gone
in two years. People usually
scream when theres a four or
five per cent decline, so you
can see just how bad it is. but
we will adapt. The potential of
russia is still there. We must
maintain a readiness for the
take-off that is coming. It is just
a matter of time.

T
cars. Whats your current view
of the market?
Im predicting steady growth
from present levels. at first,
we were impatient for bigger
sales than we see today, but
I still believe the market will
pick up, little by little. Sales will
accelerate from time to time
as emissions laws, which are
only going in one direction,
tighten further.
Technically, electric cars
are a big success. They are
accepted worldwide and
theyre the only serious option
as zero-emissions vehicles.
Other alternatives lack maturity
and cost-effectiveness. So I
believe the eV is going in the
right direction.
Do you need to have more
electric models?
We dont believe its a
question of adding more cars,
although the models we make
have a natural lifecycle, so
youll see them being renewed.
Our advantage is that we were
first in the sector. We have
the best understanding of the
market and lots of knowledge
about how people actually
use electric cars.

Dont you need more Renault


and Nissan hybrids and
plug-ins to support your EVs?
One type isnt a rival for
another. an electric car maker
needs a variety of technologies
to meet the emissions
challenge, but some push
particular technologies more
than others. you will see some
hybrids in our line-up. but were
going to continue to promote
the eV market because we
think it makes up one of the
biggest untapped market areas
in the world today.
Your partner in the sports car
Alpine project has departed,
and demand for sports cars is
low in the modern market. How
are prospects?
Sports cars are certainly
niche, but they still have an
enthusiastic following. alpine

an important asset. Were still
working on the cars, but well

heyve finally done it, then.


After years of holding
back the full potential of
the Cayman, and tacitly
admitting as much, Porsches
management team have finally
given the companys engineers
the nod to let the mid-engined
sports car be all it can be.
The Cayman GT4, which
will be officially unveiled at the
Geneva motor show next month,
will be the first Cayman to get
more power than a new 911.
At 380bhp, the GT4 is 35bhp
more powerful than a base 911
Carrera, hitherto territory that
a Cayman has been disallowed
to chart, in case it sailed across
the path of Porsches larger,
rear-engined car.
For more than half a century,
Porsche has so carefully
managed the physics of a car
with an engine behind its rear
axle that it has remained the
finest sports car in production.
For the past decade,
meanwhile, it has carefully
managed the output of the

Porsches
engineers have
finally had the
nod to let the
Cayman be
all it can be
inherently better balanced
Cayman, so that it doesnt pinch
sales from its larger, more
profitable brother.
But this moment has, slowly,
been coming. The 2011 Cayman
R was the first Cayman to get a
better power-to-weight ratio and
torque-to-weight ratio than a
911. It was brilliant so brilliant
that we named it Britains Best
Drivers Car that year.
Even so, the R was more

cut-price, stripped-out racer.


The only way youd have been
disappointed with that was if
you expected it to be like one of
Porsches motorsport-derived
cars instead.
I wonder, though, whether
ultimately that made the R
more likely to trouble the minds
of those who were wondering
whether theyd like to buy a
Porsche with the engine in the
back or the middle. Yes, they
were different, but both made
fine everyday sports/GT cars.
I imagine there will be no
such concerns this time around.
If youre thinking about buying
a 911 Carrera, the fact that there
is a more powerful Cayman out
there for less money is less likely
to be factor when the Cayman
in question sits 30mm lower
than standard, on 911 GT3
suspension, and has bucket seats
from the 918 Spyder hypercar.
It should be, in other words,
extremely raw, and not like
an entry-level 911 at all. This
991-generation Carrera has been
nudged a little more towards the
grand touring spectrum than
ever, and my suspicion is that
the GT4 will therefore not affect
911 Carrera sales one iota.
The only question now is
whether the GT4 is good enough
to alter the course of the 911
GT3. Or, more pertinent, given
that the GT3 can only be had
with a dual-clutch automatic
gearbox and the GT4 is manual
only, whether it already has.

MONDAY
Wonderful week for new cars.
Started with a day trip to Paris
to watch Renault chief Carlos
Ghosn unveil the new Kadjar
crossover, which follows the
familiar modern pattern of
being an appealing model
with a funny name, because
all decent handles have been
taken. In a quick one-to-one, I
found Ghosn surprisingly cagey
about the cars sales potential
more cagey than I would be on
his behalf, because the model
looks great and its underbits
are not only well proven, but
proven desirable by recordbreaking sales of the Qashqai,
the Kadjars Nissan twin.
Interviewing someone like
Ghosn is nerve-wracking,
because his answers are so factpacked and precisely edited that
you need all your concentration
either to pick up on what hes
just said or to move to a new
subject and make best use of
your time available. Up close,
Ghosn seems so focused that he
makes a magnifying glass look
like the bottom of a Coke bottle.
But I cant help wondering
how this extraordinary bloke,
around whom an industry
revolves, will cope with
retirement, only a handful of
years away.

about to deliver the first stage
of his promised expansion by
hiking his first years sales
by 63% to 2000-plus units)
reckons the model could add as
much as 40% to Exige volume,
because Far Eastern demand
for self-shifters is so strong. I
found the car perfect for beating
up the ancient, skinny roads of
Norfolk; in a car weighing not
much more than a tonne and
with 345bhp, it helps to be able
to keep two hands on the wheel.

Audi TT Roadster 2.0 TFSI


3.2.15, Palma, Majorca TT gains open-air appeal at the expense of two rear seats and little else

ou want an Audi TT. You like a


bit of open-air action, but youre
worried that opting for the
fabric roof at a premium of
about 1700 over the coup might
make the whole thing feel a bit soggy
to drive. Well, fear not.
Measures have been taken to
ensure that removing the roof
doesnt also remove the fun. These
include the use of extra moulded
aluminium struts around the base
of the A-pillars, sides and underside.
In total, the revisions have added
about 90kg to the already fairly
lightweight and rigid TT. The
roadsters roof, which weighs a
modest 39kg, can be raised or
lowered at road speeds of up to
31mph in just 10 seconds.
This 2.0 TFSI will be the biggestselling engine, and were driving it
complete with front-wheel drive and
a six-speed dual-clutch automatic
gearbox, a combination that will be
available to order from next month.
It is impressive how unaffected

24 AUTOCAR.CO.UK 11 FEBRUARY 2015

the TT is by its roof removal. Sure,


you get the odd quiver through the
body over awkward camber changes
and rutted, undulating surfaces,
but during road use the roadster
is virtually as good to drive as the
coup, and thats saying something.
The light, variable-ratio steering
gets quicker as you apply more lock,
making it easy to execute dramatic
direction changes with precision,
just as it also makes light work of
an urban mooch. There are more
communicative, natural-feeling
steering set-ups out there, but the
TT gives you confidence in what
the front wheels are doing and how
much grip there is to play with.
Even in this front-wheel-drive
model, grip is not something thats
in short supply. Of course, youll get
plenty of understeer if you plough
into a corner too quickly, but the TT
is poised and grippy, with good brake
feel to help get the weight balanced
properly. The only uncouth attribute
this car has is its tendency to spin its

wheels very easily under moderate


to heavy throttle inputs in anything
but bone-dry conditions. Adding
Audis quattro four-wheel drive (for
about 2000 extra, and only with
the S tronic gearbox) sorts this out
and could be worth it if you deal with
dodgy rural roads frequently. Even
with quattro, the TTs first response
in heavy cornering is to understeer,

The Audi is a lot


of fun yet easygoing. It ticks all of
the practical and
financial boxes, too

Fabric roof can be stowed or raised in just 10 seconds, at road speeds of up to 31mph

The dashboard has been transplanted from the coup, including its high-tech digital instrument display, and adds to the cars classy atmosphere

Theres a bit of back-draft bluster with the top down and a wind deflector is an extra 425, but the automatically deploying spoiler is standard
Refinement is no barrier to daily
enjoyment. The fabric roof is heavily
insulated and keeps wind noise to
a subdued flutter, although you get
a fair bit of wind coming over the
back deck with the top down, so its
a shame that the retractable wind
deflector is a 425 option. Rear
visibility is hampered by the roof
when its up, too.
The dashboard is a wondrously
high-tech affair that is unchanged
from the coup, so you get the huge
digital display that encompasses
the crucial dials and all ancillary
readouts within the drivers binnacle.
The comically tiny back seats
of the coup make way here for an
enclosed area into which the roof
neatly tucks itself, leaving a useful
280 litres of boot space (down from
305 litres in the tin-top) more than
enough for normal daily use.
Overall, if youre in the market for
this TT, youre probably considering
it against lower-end petrol versions
of the Mercedes-Benz SLK or BMW

Z4 and, on this evidence, wed say the


TT is the better package.
Its not the last word in dynamic
zing, but then neither are its rivals,
and the Audi is a lot of fun while also
being easy-going. It has all of the
practical and financial boxes ticked,

too, including solid residuals, a


competitive list price and reasonable
running costs. No need to make a
head versus heart decision, then,
even if this is a want one kind of car.
You want it? Youll love it.

but appropriate throttle feathering


cures that, and you can even tickle it
into lift-off oversteer.
The roadster has a slightly
different damper set-up from the
coups, and the resulting ride
cushions the worst bumps while
restraining untoward body roll.
Certainly, on Majorcas impressively
smooth roads, it seems that the
standard set-up is more than good
enough to make the S line
suspension or optional adaptive
dampers unnecessary additions.
This engine is really flexible and
delivers vigorous thrust from low
revs, accompanied by a reverberant,
hollow moo from the exhaust that
entices you to stretch through the
rasping tones of the upper revs.
Wed go for a manual gearbox,
simply because its more fun, but for

than driver reward, the S tronic slurs
through the ratios smoothly and is

Porsche Cayenne GTS

4.2.15, Sweden The most driver-focused Cayenne ditches V8 power for a twin-turbo V6
Predictably, that engine is now
considered as dirty and as outdated
as an oil-burning street light and has
been replaced with the same twinturbo 3.6-litre V6 that weve sampled
in the cheaper Cayenne S.
Except that it isnt quite same,
because Porsche has tweaked the
software code to get an additional
20bhp out of it 20bhp more, in fact,
than the old V8 developed. It does
this while emitting about 23g/km
less CO2 and managing greater
distances between fuel stops.
It also makes the car handily lighter
by about 120kg over the latest
Turbo. The GTS also has the 20in
RS Spyder alloy wheels, deeper sills,
fatter arches and larger air intakes
that typically go with the badge.
Inside, mostly thanks to the
Alcantara on the doors, pillars and
rooflining, the GTS feels expensively
athletic, like wearing a Gore-Texlined trail shoe. Not covering the

steering wheel in the stuff seems like


a missed opportunity, though.
Like all Cayennes, its as well
insulated as a hobbit hole and just as
snug. Swedens snow-covered roads
are not the best place to evaluate ride
quality, but the suggestion is that the
GTS chassis compromise is very well
judged indeed.
The V6 engine follows suit. Its
responsive, eager and far quicker
than the old V8 from low revs. Its
very refined, too. Twinned with an
excellent eight-speed automatic
gearbox, the accumulation of crank
speed would almost be syrupy if it
werent accompanied by so much
torque 442lb ft from just 1600rpm.
The engine isnt shy at the top end,
either, although above 5000rpm,
where the torque spirals away, is
possibly where an enthusiast might
start to pick holes. Its last 1500rpm
is a determined, slightly restrained
final emptying of the lungs. So

particularly keen drivers no longer


have such a compelling reason to
sample the engines redline, which,
if nothing else, makes it that bit
harder to differentiate the model
from its stablemates.
That distinctiveness is clearly
crucial when you consider the
premium the GTS commands
over the car that shares its engine.
The Cayenne S, only modestly less
punchy, is about 12k cheaper.
Obviously, theres trim and spec
levels to consider, but the improved
handling characteristics on offer are
impossible to judge on snow. As a
result, our final verdict on the GTS is
still very much to come.

ur experience of the latest


Porsche Cayenne, in all its
forms, continues. This time
around, in Sweden of all places,
its the turn of the GTS, the wilfully
sporty (but not the fastest) version
of Porsches best-selling model.
For most people, the standard
Cayenne is plenty sporty enough.
Even the diesel-engined variants
tend to feel seriously brisk. With the
GTS, however, the Porsche engineers
assume youre a special kind of
patriarchal head case and perform
a series of tweaks that include
lowering and stiffening the steel
coil-sprung suspension (slightly
less if you opt for air springs).
The aim is tighter body control and
superior lateral grip. Previously, this
racier attitude came with perfectly
matched propulsion in the shape
of Porsches naturally aspirated
4.8-litre V8 a combination that
positively radiated performance heft.

Mazda 2 1.5 115PS

2.2.15, Barcelona Likeable supermini shows what it can do with a more powerful petrol engine

arly drives in the new Mazda 2


have revealed it to be a very fine
supermini indeed, but not quite a
class-leading one the seemingly
unstoppable Ford Fiesta entering a
seventh year as leader of the class.
Ahead of the new 2s imminent UK
launch, weve now had a chance to
sample another, more potent flavour
of it, those earlier drives having
been limited to the mid-range 89bhp
1.5-litre petrol version.
That normally aspirated engine
is also offered with an entry-level
output of 74bhp or in the rangetopping 113bhp guise tested here,
the more powerful one promising to
give the 2 the extra bit of fun factor
needed to topple the Fiesta. A 1.5-litre
Skyactiv diesel is also offered.
The top-spec engine goads you
to rev it to access the performance,

making it entertaining if you can


keep the momentum going. The
motor is mated to one of the slickest
manual gearboxes in the class,
the six-speed unit encouraging
positive shifts. Drive it at lower revs
and its altogether much smoother
and more relaxing.
So the 2 feels good to drive, not
only because of its powertrain but
also because its steering is well
weighted and allows the car to be
placed accurately on the road.
Turn-in is sharp and the ride
comfortable. It gets the basics right,
in other words not something
that can be said for all of its rivals.
This version suffers from the
same problems as the lower-powered
ones, mind, namely little low-end
torque and overly long gearing,
which makes getting anywhere in a

hurry a real effort. The flipside


to that willingness to be pushed is
that the engine can be surprisingly
vocal. At faster motorway speeds,
engine noise never entirely fades
into the background.
Mazda is keen to emphasise its
strategy of right-sizing the engine
rather than downsizing, which has
its benefits, with real-world economy
in the early 50s, for example.
However, you cant help but miss the
extra zest, charm and better lowend shove that Fords three-cylinder
turbo Ecoboost provides. Stick one
of these in the 2 and Ive a sneaky
suspicion that the 2 would really give
the Fiesta something to worry about.
The 2s interior is a huge
improvement on the old cars in
design and perceived quality, and it
has an infotainment screen that is

controlled by a rotary knob next to


the handbrake. The sat-nav provides
some of the clearest mapping out
there and clearly spoken instructions
that wont leave you reaching for the
mute button more evidence of the
basics being done well.
This range-topping 2 has plenty
going for it, then. Its a true allrounder in the class and is likely to be
a fine car to own, albeit pricey in this
guise next to its equivalent key rivals.
The Fiesta remains the best car
in the class to drive, but the 2
deserves to be at the top of your
supermini shopping list.

Lotus Exige S Roadster auto

4.2.15, Hethel Most focused Lotus roadster gains a six-speed automatic and paddle shifters
little longer in the wheelbase. The
biggest difference is its Toyotaderived 3.5-litre V6 petrol engine,
which has control software and a
supercharger designed by Lotus. The
auto box adds 2000 to the price and
is offered as an option on both coup
and drop-top versions of the Exige.
The automatic Exige is almost
exactly as quick as the manual
version. Its capable of 0-60mph
in a deeply impressive 3.8sec and
0-100mph in just 9.2sec, and the
performance is easily deployed using
a superbly weighted accelerator
pedal and a hard-pressed traction
control system. In fact, the best thing
about this car is its easily accessible
performance; not many performance
cars as low and small as this can
go as fast, and the thrust continues
unabated well beyond 120mph.
All Exige Ss come with a selector

offering three driving modes: Off,


Standard and Sport, which adjust
chassis stability, throttle alertness
and the exhaust note. Sport seems
most interesting since it allows some
cornering slip on the limit, while
rescuing you from disaster, and a
sporty exhaust note most of the time.
For track-minded enthusiasts,
theres an extra-cost Race setting,
the set-up that Lotuss talented band
of engineer-hotshoes have devised
to make the car go around a track as
quickly as it can. The rest of the car
certainly supports such use, with
unassisted steering thats superbly
accurate and perfectly weighted at
speed, plus brakes that are hugely
powerful and easy to modulate.
The seats are spare but
comfortable. The cabin feels snug
and businesslike but distinctly oldfashioned against something like a

Porsche Boxster. But in the Lotus, the


performance dominates, as intended.
The equivalent Porsche feels rather
large and even a little cumbersome
by comparison, although it is far
better protected from effects like
wind noise than the Lotus.
Still, this is a small, none-tooversatile sports car thats showing
its age in some ways, and a price
approaching 60,000 is solid indeed.
If you want a brisk cruiser, there
are better options, but if you truly
desire the Exiges exceptional
performance-with-roadholding, it
probably looks like a bit of a steal.

Kia Sorento KX4

2.2.15, Sitges, Spain This new generation of Sorento ramps up the comfort and sophistication

hen it arrived in 2002, Kias


flagship SUV was a large
and rather crude body-onframe vehicle, popular for its
good looks, low price and mammoth
towing ability. But Kia soon turned
the Sorento into a more sophisticated,
monocoque urban model.
With this third-generation
Sorento, in UK showrooms this
spring, it has begun chasing
sophistication in earnest while
continuing to provide the previous
models space and utility. The
Sorento now has a bigger and more
stylish body, improved interior
quality and equipment and the
promise of better dynamics.
All of this comes at a cost, though.
There will be a price hike of about
five per cent across the range, so
the entry-level KX1 will cost about
29,000 and the KX4 we drove

fully loaded with gadgets such as


park assist, radar cruise control and
lane departure warning will break
the 40,000 barrier.
Mind you, its not all sophistication.
Sorentos will be sold in the UK with
just one engine: a Euro 6 version
of the faithful, slow-revving, fourcylinder 2.2 CRDi that develops
197bhp at 3800rpm, plus 325lb ft
from 1750-2750rpm.
The first thing you notice about
the new Sorento is that its bigger
than before. Kia has modified the
underpinnings of the outgoing
model so that the wheelbase is now
80mm longer and overall length has
grown by 95mm (to 4780mm). Its
also a shade wider and a little lower,
but there are considerable gains in
head room and rear leg room.
Kia is on an all-out hunt for
refinement, so the suspension

parts are familiar but the subframe


mountings have been enhanced. The
electric power steering servo motor
has been shifted from the steering
column to the rack, nearer the action,
in order to improve precision, and
soundproofing occupies well over
double the area it once did.
The result is a very quiet and
smooth-riding car, as far as one
can judge on the smooth roads of
Spain. The steering is certainly an
improvement. The handling bias is
tilted towards mild understeer (in
the wet, you can reach the limits
of the standard ESP), but there is
good dry grip and the brakes seem
powerful and easy to modulate.
The engine provides smooth,
flexible performance, the Sorento
cruising quietly thanks to its tall
gearing. Acceleration (in heaviest
KX4 guise with the optional

six-speed automatic gearbox fitted)


is quite decent, with a claimed
0-62mph time of 9.6sec.
The new Sorento has the
practicality and easy demeanour to
fit happily into many a UK family.
Judged against even the best
standards, it is comfortable and
quiet, and the seven-year warranty
provides another inducement.
It doesnt have the name appeal
and genuine off-road ability that
comes at extra cost in a Jeep or Land
Rover, but if its a hard-working and
spacious SUV you want, itll be hard
to look past the Sorento, even at the
higher (but as yet unspecified) prices.

Infiniti Q70 2.2D

3.2.15, London A revamp for Infinitis 5 Series rival includes a new four-cylinder diesel engine

nfinitis large executive saloon,


the Q70, has been given a facelift
for 2015, aimed at improving
refinement and turning it into
a car that warrants consideration
against talented rivals such as
the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series and
Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
Alongside a freshening up of trim
levels and sharpening of the cars
looks, the big news is the arrival of
a Mercedes-sourced four-cylinder
diesel engine. Previously, the only
diesel offering in the Q70 was a
3.0-litre V6 that was too dirty and
expensive to genuinely tempt buyers.
The changes give the Q70 line-up
an altogether different complexion.
The four-pot diesel engine allows
a significantly lower starting price
for the range (32,650, rather than
around 40k) and promises muchimproved fuel economy (a claimed

average of 57.6mpg) compared


with the diesel V6, which remains
in the line-up. Thats good news for
company car buyers.
The Q70s interior is a very nice
place to be. While a little fussy in
places, with a lot of buttons on a lot of
surfaces, it feels plush and nicely put
together. Visibility out is generally
good and the range of adjustment
on the front seats means that even
the most fussy occupants will easily
get comfortable. With the front seats
pushed all the way back, you can
still squeeze a pair of six-footers
into the rear seats, too.
Comfort is what this car is good
at. The suspension happily smooths
out poor road surfaces, insulating
the occupants from all but the most
severe chasms in the road surface.
If you want a car to drive
enthusiastically, however, this is

not it. The Q70 is comfortable and


composed, rather than dynamically
adept. If you try to press on down a
twisty road, the Infiniti feels big and
ungainly. A BMW 5 Series is more
rewarding to drive.
Performance from the 2143cc
diesel engine is perfectly acceptable.
The 168bhp output doesnt look
particularly generous, but the Q70
never feels slow or short on puff.
The seven-speed automatic gearbox
can be wrong-footed at times, but in
general there isnt much to complain
about. The car is quick enough off
the mark in town and happily tramps
along at motorway speeds.
The four-pot diesel engine
can be vocal at low speeds and
when its under load, but its no worse
than the equivalent BMW unit,
and the noise fades right away at
motorway speeds.

In terms of practicality, the Q70


comes up short in comparison with
all of its main rivals. Its 450-litre
boot volume is some way adrift of the
5 Series 520 litres, for example, and
the rear seatbacks dont fold down to
extend the boots length, although
you do get a ski hatch instead.
The Q70 is never going to be the
default choice in a segment where so
much of the shortlisting process is
done by the cars badge. Most of its
main rivals remain better to drive,
too, but if youre prepared to look
past the usual suspects, this facelift
makes the big Infiniti a far more
enticing prospect than before.
NIGEL DONNELLY

INFINITI Q70 2.2D PREMIUM TECH


Itll never be the default choice,
but the Q70 is now a more credible
alternative to its German rivals

And hes after another L200: with a one-tonne

the 4Life has always been ideal for his works.

over the past few years, has been a lot. But the

lights; electric windows; front skid plate; rear bar;
central locking; a central info display with a
surprisingly useful compass. And theres built-in

do-it-all functionality but has an improved 3,000kg
towing capacity, Super Select 4WD and a high-torque
175hp diesel engine that delivers strong performance
and everyday MPG gures in the high 30s.
This is a strong combination that gives Ben the

something, says Prior. I expect to get the same

Maybe thats what were in
the company of with the new
Porsche 911 Carrera GTS. Just maybe.
By parachuting a new performance
derivative into the gap between its
greatest existing sports cars, Porsche
seems to have attempted to split the
difference between the 911 GT3 (third
at last years Britains Best Drivers

awesome power and purposefulness
of the 911 GT3, as well as the
playfulness and accessibility of the
Cayman GTS. If such a thing is even
possible. The very idea seems a nave,
wishful simplification.
Nave or not, its reason enough to
get the three together and investigate
the credentials of this relative
unknown. The 911 GTS has landed.
And to give it every chance, weve

roads. No track space has been


granted for the 468bhp GT3 to warm
its Cup tyres, stretch its legs and blow
its less powerful brethren into the
weeds. Theres just a narrow ribbon of
mountain pass in a typical Welsh midwinter, and one overriding question
hanging in the air like the mist over
the valley below: how much room
can these two incredible drivers cars
possibly leave for a third?
Not much was my initial instinct.
But then you glance at the technical
specs and spare a thought for the
context into which the new GTS is
coming. And, for a while, you wonder.
Remember the stink kicked up
in certain corners of the specialist
automotive media about the lack of a
manual transmission option with the
GT3? Well, the GTS gets one and
not just any one, but the seven-speed
manual of the current 991 generation
of the 911, respecified and retuned for
better shift feel.
Next, get this: according to
Porsche, the GTS is lighter than the
GT3. Only by 5kg, but thats before
youve had the club sport half-cage
bolted into the back of the GT3, whose
lightweight panels, forged wheels and
pared-down cabin are evidently offset
by the weight of that PDK gearbox
and more complicated chassis tech.
Thats to say nothing of the 911
GTSs real selling point relative to its
bigger brother: usability. Generations

ago, Porsche offered its GT3 track day


hero in a more pragmatic comfort
specification. Not so any more.
The cue for our get-together, then,
is a 911 thats faster and considerably
more powerful than an original 996
GT3, but with added civility and more
creature comforts. Aside from all that,
its make-up isnt at all complicated.
This is ostensibly a Carrera S with the
optional power kit engine upgrade,
the same wide body and axle tracks as
the Carrera 4 and GT3, and a PASM
adaptive suspension system with
10mm of ride height taken out and
some firmer settings put back in. It
also gets all of the mechanical musthaves of the 991 options list (sports
exhaust, dynamic engine mounts,
torque vectoring and a limited-slip
differential) fitted as standard.
The specification of the other two
Porsches is familiar enough not to
need repeating. Neither the 911 GT3
nor Cayman GTS has been through a
full Autocar road test and for sports
cars of such incredible stature as
these two, thats regrettable.
Timing was the problem with
the GT3. By the time the cars welldocumented engine modification
programme had been completed
last year and Porsche GB could lend
us a right-hand-drive test car, the
automotive agenda had moved on.
With the Cayman, weve no such
excuse. We dared to assume that this

was just another series-production,


lower-order Porsche. Until we drove
it when it became clear that it
wasnt just anything.
Naturally, youre lured first to
the extravagantly meshed and
bespoilered, ground-hugging GT3,
loitering in a Carmarthenshire car
park with all the simmering visual
menace of a track prototype. From
its gaping front air ducts, past its
enormous carbon-ceramic brakes to
that huge rear wing, the GT3 has true
hardcore performance character. It
shows up the GTS as a tribute act so
pale by comparison that youd think
the gap between their respective
prices was more like 90k than 9k.
Not that you can order your own
100,540 GT3 any more. With an
RS version soon to be unveiled,
production of the first motorsportderived 991 is all but finished, and
buyers whove left it this long to
secure one must now scour Porsches
dealer stock for pre-registrations and
nearly new examples. Which dont
come cheap, by the way. The wave
of positive press coverage that the
GT3 has enjoyed has coincided with
a winding up of supply thats clearly
surprised many and has resulted in
prices rising beyond 140,000. In the
way it so often does, the market has
endowed this very special Porsche
with a price to better reflect its
spectacular abilities.

The first of which comes courtesy


of whats sitting immediately behind
the rear axle. The GT3s 3.8-litre flat
six is its crowning glory. The forged
aluminium and titanium internals
and rocker arm valve train ring and
clatter to make it sound as though the
engine is chewing itself to pieces as
you gradually let it warm through. It
also uses plenty of oil, although the
trip computer will politely tell you
when it needs a top-up.
But all is forgotten when its
on song and spinning through its
incredible repertoire. Response
is diamond sharp, power delivery
building from urgent to dramatic
as the tacho needle sweeps from
4000rpm towards 6000rpm. Above
6000rpm, its downright astonishing,
matched on furious sense of occasion
by only a handful of the very finest
performance engines in the world, and
vastly more dazzling than what the
softer-edged GTSs 3.8 can serve up.
And its fast untouchable in this
company. The turn of speed that the
GT3 can put on feels much more

range and woofling, velvety texture
as it is for outright pace. But if youre
looking at the apparently insignificant
28bhp per tonne difference between
the two cars and betting that they
cant feel that different under your
right foot, youd be amazed by the
difference in actuality. Its stark
much bigger, say, than the previous
Ford Focus RS was compared with
the equivalent ST.
There again, you may be inclined
to think: So what? What good is
468bhp if you cant really use it on the
road? But follow that argument to its
logical conclusion and you dont end
up with a rationale to buy a 424bhp,
91k 911 GTS, but its little namesake.
The 335bhp Cayman GTS has
one less gear ratio than the 911 GTS
but gives up less to the newcomer
on torque than power. Its no giantkiller on pace, belonging in a lower
performance division than either of
its siblings. But the truth is that the
performance the Cayman lacks isnt
really performance you miss. Not on
the road, at least. Not if you value your
liberty. Its intoxicating to indulge in
the farther reaches of the 911 GTSs
rev range every now and again and
almost hallucinogenic to do so in the
GT3. The Caymans 3.4-litre flat six
doesnt come alive above 6500rpm
in quite the same way, balanced as it
is more for mid-range muscle than
redline hysterics.
But that bias allows it to keep up
with its rear-engined betters as you
howl along a steep and deserted

still play with its tail

GT3 has more speed than you need on the road but sounds exhilarating at high revs

B-road. It hits full stride sooner as you


sweep out of corners and down short
open stretches. And in reality, other
than at the kind of lick and on the
sorts of road that simply dont figure
in the UK, the Cayman GTS wont be
shrugged off the back of this 1200bhp
Porsche cavalcade. Not for a moment.
The Cayman has what feels like a
generous, road-appropriate power
level. It also has the word-perfect
answer to a question that must be
posed on a regular basis at the chassis
development blue sky meetings of
car makers the world over: How
should our new sports car handle?
The Caymans reply is brilliant. It isnt
contrived or complex. The car simply
makes itself invisible; its driveshafts,
suspension springs, brake calipers
and contact patches are an instant
and unconscious extension of you. Its
a trick not even the GT3 can pull off.
Theres no working this car out
and little need to build trust, when
every flick of the steering gives you
sublime directional response and
supreme confidence in the remaining
grip level. The Cayman GTS tucks in
to a greasy apex as though cornering
was its natural state like youd
imagine an old American stock car on
staggered wheels and cross-weighted
springs must have felt. Except so light
and spry, and supremely eager.
If anything, you can criticise it for
too much incisiveness at times too
great a readiness to change direction.

masses are more easily controlled


by the suspension because theyre
carried where they ought to be:
between the axles. Softer chassis
settings and a favourable weight
distribution make the car corner with
beautiful poise but also flirt with
roll-related oversteer if you carry too
much speed or time your braking
badly. Its nothing the stability
control cant subtly deal with and
presents itself more often on track
than road. But its there, the inevitable
consequence of true, pin-sharp
chassis balance. And it means that,
now and again, the Caymans driver
might have a snatch of a throttle-off
tail slide to focus the mind.
Lift-off oversteer is a dynamic
character flaw thats been studiously
and successfully engineered out of
the 911 over several decades. To
the point where, on a slippery road
bordered by rocks on one side and
100ft of fresh air on the other, your
focus is entirely on the front wheels

of this enigmatic, enduring sports


car whether GTS or GT3.
Putting a sports car exactly where
you want it is, after all, the heart and
soul of rewarding road driving. Doing
that in the GT3 is a much easier and
more direct task than in the GTS,
because most of the time even on
wintry roads and at sub-5deg C the
GT3s grip and steering response are
leagues better. And thats not all that
marks its pre-eminence.
Although its stiffer than the GTS
and less compliant at low speeds
and suffers with more tyre noise, the
GT3 actually rides better than its new
range mate most of the time. It has
that delicate initial damper response
which begins to take the sting out of
a bump the split second it impacts
the suspension. The GTSs adaptive
dampers allow more compliance
and initial suspension travel, only to
intervene to check body movement
once it has been allowed to develop.
Very few sports cars could make

It still knows how to make sports cars

Each of these cars has earned its wings

New 911 Carrera GTS


offers facets that the
GT3 and Boxster cant

the 911 GTS feel at all sloppy, soft or


clumsy, but the GT3 is one of them.
The 911 GTS has similar weight in
its steering to the Cayman but cant
match it on directional response. The
GT3 gets closer, and it communicates
feedback from its front tyres even
better than the Cayman. But neither
911 goes around a corner with the
telepathic precision of the Cayman.
Working the weight distribution of
the bigger pair of Porsches, adapting
your driving style around them and
teasing the poise and precision out is
one of the 911 drivers lasting rewards.
In the stunningly immersive GT3
particularly, that occupation might
sustain your interest for longer than
either of the other two can manage.
But heres the difference. In the GT3
and, in a less grippy and precise
sense, in the GTS, too you probe
away with the steering wheel, feeling
for purchase and building belief in the
cars handling and eventually finding
some. In the Cayman, on the road,

that belief is immutable and absolute


and the car is never more than three
inches from where you pointed it.
So where does that leave the
new 911 Carrera GTS? No mans
land? Not quite. Even though its
comprehensively outhandled by
the Cayman on the road, greater
performance and motive character
mean it isnt outpointed. And even
though it fails to get close to the thrill
of a GT3, it offers enough relative
civility and usability to earn its place.
The truth is that you suspect
the GTS badge will be applied by
Porsche more like a fairly ordinary
trim level than a mark of real sporting
flavour in the years to come. This
example feels like an optimally
configured but familiar Carrera S,
rather than anything genuinely new.
Does that make it one of Porsches
all-time greats? No. But its a fine
example of a sporting institution
known and loved by so many
and for very good reasons. L

THE YEAR OF

44 AUTOCAR.CO.UK 26 SEPTEMBER 2012

The 911 GT3 is set to be joined by a


raft of new, hardcore models from
other sports car makers and
Porsche itself. Andrew Frankel looks
at whats coming in the next year

s there an initialism in the


entire glossary of motoring
terms more flagrantly abused
than GT? To some car makers,
such as Honda, Infiniti, Kia
and Volkswagen, it is a mere
trim level, and to BMW the term
now seems to be synonymous with
ugly hatchback.
When you think of the cars
that made the name famous more
than 50 years ago the likes of the
Ferrari 250 GT and Lamborghini
350 GT its enough to make you
cry. Add just one number to those
two letters, however, and once
more you are transported into a
world of thrills and excitement
peopled only by proper drivers
cars. This is the world of the GT3.
Of course, if we think of a GT3
today, it is a Porsche 911 that
inevitably pops into our minds,
because although others used
the term before the first 911 GT3
of 1999 (notably Lotus with the
shamefully underrated Esprit
GT3), it is Porsche that has made
the name its own. Not for much
longer, though. Within a year, a
GT3 will be not so much a car as
a class, and although not every
member will be called a GT3, you
wont struggle to tell them from
the rest of their stablemates.
A GT3 road car may or may not
be the quickest car in the range,
but it will always be the most
focused. It will be more powerful
than the standard offering
but, unlike, say, a 911 Turbo,

lighter, too. It will have extensive


aerodynamic modifications and a
race-ready alter ego to compete in
global GT3 racing, now the most
popular category of sports car
racing the world has ever known.
More than anything, while a
GT3 car might look wonderful,
it is anything but a car merely
for show. It is a hardcore driving
machine for serious drivers and
no one else need apply. For their
manufacturers, these cars are
not the money-making machines
you might expect, because they
require extensive modifications in
all important areas powertrain,
chassis and aerodynamics chiefly
yet will sell in tiny numbers.
So why do them? Simply
because they act as antidotes
to other cars in their ranges,
detoxifying reputations that
might otherwise be poisoned by
the worlds current addiction to
SUVs. Porsche knows it can build
as many Audi-based off-roaders
as it likes as long as it also builds
hardcore GT3s, because no one is
going to fear that the company has
lost touch with the cars on which
its reputation was built.
So as the likes of Bentley, Jaguar
and Aston Martin prepare their
first SUVs and inevitably least
sporting cars, there shouldnt be
too much surprise that they also
feel the need to balance them out
with what may prove to be the
most sporting, driver-orientated
cars in their collective histories.

ASTON MARTIN V12


VANTAGE GT3
T
heres no doubting the existence of
this car, nor the timing of its arrival
at the Geneva motor show in March.
The road-going GT3 Vantage will aim to
build on the many successes of its racing
brother while elevating the bar of Aston
Martin performance far beyond anything
seen to date by any production car.
The Vantage GT3 will retain the
6.0-litre V12 engine that has been used
by Aston Martin since 1999, but with its
power raised from its current maximum
of 565bhp to perhaps the magic 600bhp
mark, a still relatively low level of stress
when you consider that Ferraris F12
achieves 730bhp from less than 6.3 litres.
Perhaps as significantly, weight is
set to drop, by as much as 100kg. The
Vantage has never been put on such a

strict diet before, and it is believed that


simply removing some interior gadgets
and installing thin seats will create most
of the saving, while lightweight body
panels using lessons learned over many
years of racing will account for the rest.
We also believe the cars track will be
widened and an aerodynamic package
visually much closer to that of a race
car than anything seen on a road-going
Aston to date will be used, but it is not
known if the car will be offered with even
the option of a manual gearbox.
The modifications should elevate the
Vantages performance far beyond the
level of the current Porsche 911 GT3
and place it on a par with the likes of the
Ferrari 458 Italia and McLaren 650S.
Expect it to be priced accordingly.

PORSCHE 911 GT3 RS


W
eve been waiting a long time
for this. The RS was originally
intended to make its worldwide debut
at last years Goodwood Festival of
Speed before being delayed by the selfimmolating GT3 crisis. The new RS will
now be at the Geneva motor show in
March, and what a car it promises to be.
Porsche has been very successful
in keeping detail leaks to a minimum,
but we believe the engine will remain
normally aspirated and that its output
will be tickled up from the current
475bhp to 500bhp or more, although
whether this is done through tuning or a
capacity increase from 3.8 to 4.0 litres

46 AUTOCAR.CO.UK 11 FEBRUARY 2015

is not known. The 4.0-litre version of


the previous (997) GT3 RS is the most
revered 911 of modern times.
As ever, the new GT3 RS will be
significantly lighter than the standard
GT3, but the major area of development
is believed to be aerodynamic, with
insiders claiming downforce levels more
readily comparable with those of sports
racing cars than standard road cars.
The GT3 RS is likely to have the added
poignancy of heralding the end of 52
years of normally aspirated 911s. This
autumn the 911 will receive a mid-life
refresh thats understood to involve
turbo engines throughout the range.

JAGUAR F-TYPE GT3


P
robably the GT3 car about which
the least is known, although an even
hotter, more driver-dedicated F-Type
coup has been rumoured for as long
as the F-Type has been in existence.
Jaguar is known to be looking very
seriously at a GT3 race version of the
F-Type because it is acutely aware
that it is the only major premium brand
without a presence in this lucrative
and brand-building sport. A decision is
expected imminently.
In the meantime, work is believed
to be ongoing on an R-S version of the
F-Type, which would fit strategies used
for previous high-performance Jaguars

such as the XFR-S and XKR-S. However,


if it is to command credibility as a
worthy member of the new GT3 order,
the hot F-Type will need to be far more
extensively engineered than any R-S to
date, particularly in the areas of chassis
and aerodynamic development.
Of all the cars on this list, the Jaguar is
the least likely to see the light of day this
year, if only because the company has
the XE, the all-wheel-drive and manual
F-Types, an XJ refresh and an SUV all
to launch in 2015. Its a programme that
would tax the resources of a large car
manufacturer, let alone a comparative
minnow like Jaguar.

Aston Martins GT3


contender will be
launched next month

MERCEDES-AMG
GTGT3
O
kay, we know Mercedes-Benz will
never call a road car a GT3 because,
to quote AMG boss Tobias Moers, that
name belongs to the other company,
referring to his cross-town colleagues at
Porsche. Even so, Moers has described
a Mercedes-AMG GT with GT3 qualities
as a good idea and has fleshed out in
some detail the approach it will take.
He said: We want a package that
excels in every area. I dont want to
make a dragster thats only good for
doing 0-100km/h in 2.8sec. We need
more power, less weight, better aero and

different suspension, but the targets


should be the power-to-weight ratio,
driveability, lap time and tremendous
feel. A GT3 car, in other words.
The target is to reduce the weight
of the GT by 80-100kg, and Moers
says it would be fair to speculate that
the 4.0-litre V8 engine would need
to produce about 550bhp. With work
proceeding apace to ready the racing
version of the GT for the 2016 season, it
would make sense for the two projects
to operate in tandem and for us to see
something of the new road car this year.

BENTLEY
CONTINENTAL GT3
B
entley has already dipped its toes
into GT3 waters with last years
limited-edition GT3-R, but rumours
persist that it is considering taking a
proper plunge. Although the GT3-R
followed the standard GT3 formula and
was indeed lighter, more powerful and
more aerodynamically effective than
the standard Continental GT V8S upon
which it is based, the modifications were
relatively modest and, for instance, did
not feature the deletion of the fourwheel drive hardware.
Last year Bentley chief Wolfgang

Drheimer said the company could


push more with its GT3 road car
programme and was open to the idea
of a more tightly focused, rear-wheeldrive road car. The success of its GT3
racing programme since then makes the
possibility of such a car more likely.
If Bentley is to build a proper roadgoing, rear-wheel-drive GT3 car, its
engineers will want to get its weight as
close to and, if possible, below 2000kg.
The GT3-R already has 572bhp from
its 4.0-litre V8 engine, but 600bhp is
known to be easily achievable. L

Cutting-edge 3D printing can be used


to create a car from scratch in 44
hours as seen at last months Detroit
show. Andrew Frankel finds out more

Strati is printed using carbonfibre-reinforced plastic and comprises just 47 parts


48 AUTOCAR.CO.UK 11 FEBRUARY 2015

t is well known that paper is not


the only printer-friendly material
and that, thanks to modern
computer technology, there is
no need to stay in the rather
limiting world offered by the first
two dimensions. You will recall, for
instance, the plastic gun that was
built, fired and said to be undetectable
by conventional scanning machines.
It was created by a 3D printer.
But what about cars? If you saw the
most recent Bond movie, Skyfall, you
might have cringed at the sight of an
Aston Martin DB5 apparently being
riddled with bullets. But youd have
relaxed rather more had you known
that it was, in fact, not merely a scale
model but a printed one at that.
But what about a real car
something you can get in and drive?
You couldnt print one of those, surely?
At the recent Detroit motor show,
printed car pioneer Local Motors
did just that, printing a car on its
stand with the aim of driving it away

at the end of the show. And just to


prove that they werent kidding, they
showed one theyd made earlier
The theory behind the 3D printed
car is so compelling that it forces
you, at least at first, to put to one side
some of the thornier issues facing
those wishing them to become a
commercial reality.
Its all about the tooling, says the
positively evangelical Elle Shelley,
Local Motors chief marketing officer.
Guess how many parts this car has,
she insists, pointing at the car they
call the Strati. Three hundred?
I hazard, somewhat hopelessly.
Forty-seven, she replies. A
conventional car has 35,000. Yikes.
If the Local Motors dream comes
true, it will work like this: the world
will become populated by so-called
micro-factories, all printing cars
that are not only crowd funded but
also crowd designed. So people enter
competitions locally, a winning
design is selected and thats what

3D printing | Insight

After printing, rough surfaces are smoothed and the panels clipped together; the Strati uses a Twizy powertrain

Strati is fully
driveable and weighs
less than 750kg
gets printed. You dont need to make
a million cars before returning a
profit to your investors, says Shelley.
Youll turn a profit on 1000 cars.
Moreover, while it might take five
years or more for a conventional car
manufacturer to design a new car,
the Strati went from an idea to being
driveable in just five months, albeit
with a little help from the powertrain
and running gear of a Renault Twizy.
Then it takes 44 hours to print using
carbonfibre-reinforced plastic, a
couple of hours to mill the resulting
rough surfaces into something
smoother and then perhaps a day
to clip all the panels together like
Lego, as Shelley describes it.
Unlike owners of normal cars
who can only either sell or keep the
car they have bought, if you then get
bored with your cars design, you
just take it back to the factory, where
it will be melted down and turned
into something else. They call it
upgradeable hardware.

The Strati is not actually a


production car, although Local
Motors says something similar but
with proper weather equipment
will be in production before the end
of year for between $18,000 and
$30,000. It weighs less than 750kg,
which doesnt sound like much
but is actually half as much again
as the Twizy that lends its battery,
electric motor and suspension. Then
again, you can power it by pretty
much anything that fits up to and
including, says Shelley, the Porsche
engine were working on.

It went from an
idea to being
driveable in just
five months

There are many issues with


such an innovative approach to car
manufacturing, of which the GCSE
Design and Technology standard of
finish of the show car is just one of
the more obvious. Shelley confirms
that there is a lengthy homologation
process to be gone through. Also,
while Local Motors plans to open
more than 100 micro-factories
around the world, right now there
are just three, located in Las Vegas,
Washington DC and Phoenix.
Even so, Local Motors is aware
that even if the Strati and its future
printed cars find the legislative going
tough in the US, there are lots of other
places around the world where the
demand could be immense. Think
of sub-Saharan Africa, says Shelley.
Thats a huge opportunity.
And thinking of the potential
demand for such an incredibly simple
vehicle for which spare parts can be
printed locally according to demand,
I can see that she has a point.

It would be easy to titter at Local


Motors and what it describes as the
car that will change the world, but I
feel inclined not to. They are clearly
passionate about their creation and
spectacularly brave in their attempts
to bring it to market in a way that
owes precisely nothing to the
principles of car manufacturing laid
out by Henry Ford over a century ago
that live with us to this day.
What I will say is that although
I have no better idea than you
whether Local Motors will succeed
or not, you dont need a PhD in
engineering to see the sense of
printing at least components for
cars. Quick, less wasteful than
conventional processes and able to be
changed at the click of a mouse, it is, if
not the future of car manufacturing,
then certainly part of it.
And a whole car? Time was when
people considered the car itself a
passing fad. We may yet one day
titter on the other side of our faces. L

The companys latest inheritor of


that legacy, the 208 GTi, was a more
serious attempt than weve seen in a
long time to return the Peugeot brand
to the kind of reverence in which it
began to be held two or three decades

more willing entertainer than many a

of arriving at the same time as the

all been uprated or retuned, and its

outward appearance and interior


have been updated. The net result,
says Peugeot, is a car of not just
greater performance capability than
the standard 208 GTi but also more
radical character and extra soul. If
true, such added flair will distinguish
the car from its rivals better than a
class-leading 0-60mph showing.
It doesnt come cheap, though.
Peugeots 21,995 asking price for
the 208 GTi 30th makes it 10 per cent
more expensive than a fully loaded,
Mountune-kitted Fiesta ST, so it
needs to be every bit as good as its
cracked up to be.

DESIGN AND ENGINEERING


AAAAC
After the impressive job that it made
of last years RCZ R, Peugeot Sports
attention was seconded from making
Dakar Rally and European Rally
Championship competition cars for
this project. And its work started by
updating the standard GTis 197bhp
1.6-litre turbo four-pot engine for
greater potency to make it comply
with Euro 6 emissions regulations.
Its makeover has done more for

Bravo. Designers take note: sometimes

ON THE INSIDE

l Pleasingly, the 30ths traction control has only


two settings: on and off. It doesnt take multiple
seconds of button holding to turn it off, either.

l Imagine your head dipped a wee bit lower than


our camera (below) and you can see why the
i-cockpit layout upsets some people.

l Adjusting the temperature is probably the most


cogent part of the dashboard, but the switchgear
is less pleasing to use than some of its rivals.

MULTIMEDIA SYSTEM
Coming with plenty of kit
is a limited-edition models
prerogative, and the 30th doesnt
buck the trend, earning the
satellite navigation system that
was previously only standard
on the GTi Prestige trim level.
Alongside it is a DAB tuner and the
Bluetooth connectivity that we
expect to find on any car north of
20k. These function well enough,
even if the map display does
resemble a line drawing from an
early 1990s flight simulator.
The niggles lie deeper and

most notably in a general lack of


intuitiveness. There is rather too
much screen stabbing to be done
at a plethora of buttons and boxes
a criticism easily levelled at half
a dozen such systems, but not any
less bothersome for that fact.
The lack of any real sense of
fluid usability is a shame, because
it means that the lofty positioning
of the screen never seems like
much of a virtue. It just feels like
youre continually having to lift
your hand up very high to access
the feature you want, rather than
keeping your eye on the road.

torque (up 18lb ft to 221lb ft) than


power (up 7bhp to 205bhp), but it has
also brought CO2 emissions down
by 14g/km and two company car
tax percentage points and boosted
claimed combined fuel economy up
beyond 50mpg. As crazy at it sounds,
you now have to descend through
the 208s petrol engine range all
the way to the 81bhp 1.2-litre threecylinder version to find a more
economical motor. That will probably
be of more significance to buyers
of the 2015-model-year regular
208 GTi (which is next in line for
this engine) than for owners of the
30th anniversary special, but its a
remarkable claim in any case.
Downstream of that engine,
Peugeot Sport beefed up the GTis
transmission by transplanting the
six-speed, close-ratio manual gearbox
and Torsen limited-slip differential
directly from the RCZ R. Standard
18in alloy wheels with half an inch
of extra rim width contribute to
an improvement in the claimed
0-62mph acceleration to 6.5sec from
the standard GTis 6.8sec.
Youd expect an equally thorough
chassis makeover and, sure enough,
you get one. The 208 GTi 30ths

suspension has been completely


recommissioned compared with
the normal GTis. Firmer springs,
uprated dampers and new antiroll bars feature, as well as wider
tracks front (an extra 22mm) and
rear (16mm), a 10mm reduction
in ride height and more negative
wheel camber. The front brake
discs have been enlarged to 323mm
and its electro-mechanical power
steering, traction control and ESP
systems have been recalibrated to
derive maximum benefit from the
mechanical locking diff.
Exterior styling changes are limited
mainly to matt black alloy wheels
and body trim additions, although
the two-tone, diagonally split paint
scheme is eye-catching. Peugeot calls
it Coup Franche. For those whod
prefer it, conventional Satin White or
Rioja Red paint is available.

INTERIOR

l The 30ths seats are a special design by Peugeot Sport and are very good up
to a point, falling short only in the kind of support that wed expect on a track.

Peugeot has resisted the urge to
tamper much with the appearance of
the 208 GTis cabin for the 30th. To all
intents and purposes, this is a 208

ON THE ROAD
GTi as we currently know it. Which
is to say decent enough, despite the
showboating shiny plastic and mildly
perplexing nature of the layout.
Characterised by the highmounted touchscreen and now
infamous floating dials, the layout
is a familiar theme of the French
manufacturers interior design
language, although that has hardly
altered the slightly discombobulated
feel of sitting behind the wheel for
the first time.
Much has been written on the
subject of the dashboard, which we
wont repeat here, but suffice it to say
that short drivers who prefer to sit
low will probably not be able to see
the 208s redline and in a hot hatch,
that seems like a shame. Were not
huge fans of the downsized steering
wheel blocking the view, either, and
the manual gearbox could do with
its unnecessarily long throw being
an inch or two shorter.

TRACK NOTES
The 30th works somewhat better on
the track than it does on the road.
Primarily, thats because the point
of most of the upgrades improved
characteristics at nine-tenths comes
to the fore more consistently and
compellingly when the bends are
empty and mostly well sighted.
Drive with enough persistence and
the GTi 30ths aptitude for tarmac rally
stage-style tenaciousness bubbles
quickly to the surface. It is capable
of carrying huge speed through fast
corners more so even than the Ford
Fiesta ST, which, during informal
testing on Millbrooks compact outer
handling circuit, was 1.5sec off the
pace set by the 208.
Even here, though, the Fords
superior adjustability makes it the
more compelling steer. Unlike the
diff-sharing RCZ R, which indulges in
exuberant lift-off oversteer, the 208s
stability bias means that it requires a
dab of the brakes to do significantly
more than simply tighten its line.

Getting comfortable isnt a


problem, thanks to the new, figurehugging Peugeot Sport-branded
seats, although the squidginess of the
bolsters means theyre hardly vicelike in the support department.
The 30th gets a bit more lacquered
black trim, Alcantara, leather, red
piping and some very scarlet floor
mats plus a numbered plaque to
mark it out as special, but its unlikely
that Peugeots customers will feel
inclined to pay the models premium
on account of the spec. That said,
theres enough standard kit thrown
in, including a DAB tuner, dual-zone
air-con and sat-nav, to make it a
convincing enough range-topper.

PERFORMANCE
AAAAC
The current 208 GTi, although never
road tested on these pages, was not

better job of the tricky

sibling might, courtesy

lacking in gusto a good thing when


you consider the marginal nature of
the power increase enacted here.
Nevertheless, Peugeot claims
a respectable 0.3sec reduction in
0-62mph time, and, two up, we
corroborated it at Millbrook. The
previous cars problem was in the
hooves rather than the horses, so
it seems fair to credit the revised
suspension geometry, new limitedslip differential and stickier tyres
with the slightly better level of
traction required to enable the 30th
to cover the 0-60mph sprint in
6.5sec. That puts it in very good stead
compared with the competition,
making it almost a full second
quicker than the spiritless Clio 200
and half a second up on the Fiesta ST.
However, its worth mentioning
that the Fiesta ST, powered by Fords
similar-sized Ecoboost engine,
remains the more characterful
and responsive unit from low revs.

Peugeots own turbocharged fourcylinder motor, although as thrusting


as ever from shorter gear ratios, still
suffers from a brief contemplative
moment of lag that just isnt as
noticeable in the ST. It isnt irksome
enough to be a serious demerit, but
it does make the 30ths undoubted
liveliness harder to get at than it
might otherwise have been.
Once on stream, the engines
willingness to rev is undeniably
contagious, especially given the
enthusiasm with which it careens
into its 6500rpm limiter. It isnt a
particularly stirring experience,
though, the classic hard-edged
four-pot thrash being a strain on
the ears compared with the
bass-noted melody of the Fiestas
symposer system.
Throw it all together the
peaky din, the throttle delay, the
long-throw gearshift and the

the 208s brio that scurrying
exuberance which makes a

RIDE AND HANDLING


AAABC
Right out of the box, the 30th feels
like a different prospect from the
flawed but likeable 208 GTi. In
standard fettle, the car complements
its over-engined silliness with a
benignly sprung, amenable attitude
to ride comfort. The special-edition
model jettisons the compromise,
adopting instead the uncannily
hard-bodied rebound of a much more
single-minded product.
Keeping you stapled to the road
surface is the old-fashioned name
of the game here, no matter what
rippling after-effects are felt in the
cabin. Theres plenty of road noise to
go with it, too. This is a car capable
of making the Fiesta ST seem well
isolated. Of course, Peugeot is
reasoning that the enthusiast niche of

potential buyers wont bristle at such


treatment as long as the results tell.
That these hardy souls will find
the car an improvement is testament
enough to the diff and wider tracks
that it probably should have had in
the first place. Where the standard
model is a primitive, unruly steer
to be cajoled around the place like
a stroppy toddler, the GTi 30th is
more appreciably in command of
its faculties. The diff itself (a looser
affair than was applied to the RCZ R,
as the Track Notes section explains)
doesnt overawe the front end. It just
competently permits the application
of more power from much earlier
in a corner. And given that theres
usually a surfeit of power, and now
considerably more grip, it makes the
208 a plainly quicker prospect.
Thats as advertised, and as you
might expect. However, unfiltered
entertainment on the public road, of
the kind meted out so effusively by
the Ford, is in shorter supply than
wed hoped. There are a number of
reasons for this, but the main one,
and the most familiar, is the 208s
steering, which continues to be a
bugbear. As with the standard car, the

racks electric assistance is a muddle.


The overly light off-centre haziness
introduced to make that small wheel
manageable at low and medium
speeds deprives the set-up of any
linearity when it suddenly wants to
be all viscous and reactive at a gallop.
Too often you find yourself sawing
away at it, discontentedly. The 30ths
purchase (in the dry) is appreciable
enough to drive through the shortfall,
but unquestionably some of the
new-found perkiness and precision
delivered by the chassis is needlessly
frittered away.

BUYING AND OWNING


AAABC
Peugeots pricing for the 208 GTi
30th may be ambitious, but it isnt
exorbitant for a big-hitting supermini
in 2015. The Fiesta ST, which is on
offer for less than 18k, continues to
make every rival look expensive as
things stand, but that kind of value is
the exception, not the rule.
Nissans new Juke Nismo RS is
barely any cheaper than this 208, for
example. Both the Audi S1 and the

upcoming Mini JCW are considerably


more expensive. And although
theyre premium-brand offerings,
neither the Audi nor the Mini has
the advantage of limited-run supply
to bolster residual values. Just 300
examples of the 30th anniversary
208 GTi will be made, 100 of which
are coming to the UK and a decent
number of which have already
been sold. Our market sources are
understandably conservative about
the cars likely residual values. If it
becomes collectable, the GTi 30th
could retain its financial worth better
than anyone expects although
theres no sign yet of the kind of
demand that would be required to
make that happen.
Otherwise, costs of ownership on
the 208 GTi 30th promise to be quite
low. Rated in group 30 for insurance,
its in the same classification as the
normal 208 GTi and the equivalent
Ford Fiesta ST. A Clio RS 200 is only
one group lower.
On fuel economy, the cars
performance is laudable. Our
True MPG recorded 41.2mpg as a
test average, more than 10 per cent
better than the Fiesta ST returned.

TECHNICAL LAYOUT
Predictably, the 30ths few trick items are mostly confetti tipped on a very conventional supermini. The new limitedslip differential stands out as a mechanical addition, but otherwise this is a hefty tweak of the 208 GTis blueprint.
Thus, it retains front MacPherson struts and a rear torsion bar, electric power steering and disc brakes all round.

SPEC ADVICE

his is a quicker, more capable and more exciting 208 GTi than the one that first emerged a
couple of years ago. Its improvements are bullishly obvious. Which is appropriate, because
to get the best out of them, you must continually and unmercifully examine its limits. So
its apparent just how much of a committed enthusiast youd have to be to live with this 208
in the long term. Its faults notwithstanding, we were modestly fond of the standard cars bedruffled way of doing things, and its inevitably that easy-going edge which has had to go.
Making the 208 GTi ostensibly better hasnt necessarily made it any more likeable. This 30th
birthday version has become a better hot hatch than its competition from Renaultsport, sure
but well take a more communicative hot hatch over a brutish one most of the time. That explains
the Fiesta STs monopoly of the hot supermini top spot, and the 30ths distance from it.

Slower and less efficient than


the 208, but also cheaper and
substantially better.

Start ticking options and it soon


gets pricier than the 208.
Worth every extra penny, mind.

Fast and appropriately furious


but, in truth, the 208 is only the
best of the rest.

Theres an alternative reality


somewhere in which the Clio is
brilliant. But its not this one.

If you want to spend a fortune


on a supermini, this is the one.
More likeable than youd think.

LETTER OF THE WEEK

Mondeo? No shock
The cover of Autocars 28 January issue read: Shock: New Mondeo
beats every rival and even BMW. Why shouldnt it? Todays
preoccupation with premium brands overlooks the simple fact that
Ford, in all probability, has engineering and manufacturing resources
quite equal to those of the established premium manufacturers.
Cost considerations may occasionally get in the way of, say,
dashboards of the most elegant construction, but it would appear no
expense has been spared on the most important, but hidden, technical
bits where the new Mondeo is concerned.
Indeed, a company capable of designing and engineering the recently
launched GT supercar cant be all bad.

Hartley, Kent

A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE

SLOGANS RUN

Your archive story in the 21 January


issue (Talbot Horizon road test) struck
a chord with me, because my late father
ran a Talbot dealership in Croydon. His
company cars in my formative years
were often top-of the-range Solaras and
Alpines, which in SX trim also had the
first trip computers.
Funny how, all those years ago, this
feature was considered the height of
luxury along with velour trim, a radio
and the choice of a steel sliding sunroof
or a vinyl roof. Electric windows (front
only) were a source of wonder to school
friends, and the mpg readout from the
trip computer was notoriously optimistic.
On one demonstrator Alpine, we
found that the mpg increased the longer
you drove without resetting it. It finally
reached, I seem to recall, 10,000mpg

FREE FUEL
I read the excellent article by Lewis
Kingston about driving to Amsterdam

and back in a Tesla (Home on the range,


28 January) a journey full of interest,
concern, panic and, finally, relief. And the
fuel added nothing to the costs!
Last year, I also left London at 9am
on a two-day drive to the Netherlands.
We got further than Amsterdam, making
it to the Apeldoorn Het Loo Classic Car
event in time for a 5pm beer or two.
We also had an interesting car a
Ferrari 250 GTE and although not
as quick as a Tesla, the V12 wail as we
dropped a couple of cogs through some
underpasses more than compensated.
People smiled and waved at us along
the journey. And we only stopped for 10
minutes to take on fuel the whole trip.
And really, the fuel cost us nothing!
How was that? Because in the 48 hours
we were away, the value of the car had
increased by over 500.

BANGING KETTLES DRUM
Reading Nigel Donnellys used choices
in the 21 January issue (Rock-bottom
roadsters for 1500), I was amazed
to see his recommendation for what is
probably one of the most unreliable and
poorly made cars to be sold in Britain in
the past 20 years.
The MG F, or kettle as we used
to call them in the trade, should be
recommended for use only as a cheap
alternative to skip hire. Ive yet to see
one that was still in one piece or not in
need of open heart surgery, made all the
more complicated and expensive by its
mid-engined configuration.
Personally, Id replace that entire list
with just two cars: the Mazda MX-5 and
the Toyota MR2.
Andrew Sloan

Just two options? What a dull place
the world would be. Any happy MG F

owners out there care to differ with


Andrews opinion? MB

TOO MUCH CHOICE


Following the Detroit motor show, with
the release of the super-looking Ford
GT together with the Honda NSX, surely
this premium sports car/junior supercar
market will be saturated in choice.
Add the new Audi R8 V10 due this year
and Mercedes-AMG GT, plus the latest
Lamborghini Huracn, the replacement
for the Ferrari 458 and the soon-tobe-launched McLaren 650S. Oh, and
not forgetting the new Porsche baby
supercar being developed.
In a market still not recovered from
the recession, it seems like oversupply
could meet under-demand in a
catastrophic collision.

Citron C4 Cactus

FIRST REPORT Is the Cactus simply an oddball, justifiable only for its quirky styling and
features, or a serious contender in the booming crossover sector? We plan to find out

he launch of the C4 Cactus marks


the return of the more distinctive
Citron to the mainstream. If you
want a car that encapsulates some
of the French brands hallmark
outlandishness and need something
that can seat four with ease, no longer
do you have to opt for the relatively
costly 17,855 DS4. Instead, for
12,990, you can get the Cactus and
net yourself something that has shades
of the 2CV in its design and its mentality.
There are more reasons for choosing
a Cactus than its original features, such
as the supermarket trolley-cushioning
Air Bumps on the side, though. Its
a new, different contender in the
burgeoning crossover market and
offers a fresh alternative to the likes of
the Nissan Juke and Renault Captur.
Its offered with a range of economical

60 AUTOCAR.CO.Uk 11 FEBRUARY 2015

small petrol and diesel engines, a host


of equipment choices and a selection
of personalisation options and it
shouldnt cost much to run.
Even in its most basic Touch trim,
the Cactus comes with a DAB radio,
cruise control, a speed limiter, a 7.0in
display screen, an auxiliary port and
other niceties such as electrically
adjusted mirrors. Thats not bad for
an inexpensive, rugged and relatively
practical small crossover.
Step up to mid-range Feel and you get
cosmetic upgrades, Bluetooth and aircon. Cars in flagship Flair specification,
like ours, extend that equipment roster
further with upgrades that include satnav, a better stereo, climate control,
automatic wipers and lights, tinted
rear windows, LED interior lighting and
heated door mirrors. A few options

For 12,990, you can get a Cactus and


net yourself something that has shades
of the 2CV in its design and its mentality
most notably the black leather and cloth
pack, the panoramic sunroof and the
colour reversing camera and parking
sensors add a not insignificant 1770
to the price of our car, so the whole
thing comes in at 19,060. Thats a little
excessive for a compact crossover with
a three-cylinder engine, perhaps, but
more on that in due course.
Weve opted to test the small,
efficient turbocharged 1.2-litre threecylinder petrol engine. It seems only
right to do so, given the prevalence
of force-fed triples and the falling

price of petrol. Why opt for a diesel,


after all, when you can have a quieter,
more aurally gratifying engine thats
potentially as efficient and likely to be
more rewarding in daily use?
The engine may be a cylinder short
of a full picnic and small in capacity, but
forced induction grants it the ability
to produce 109bhp and 187lb ft, that
torque peak being delivered at just
1500rpm and sent to the front wheels
via a five-speed manual gearbox.
Citrons turbocharged triple has
to pull only a svelte 1190kg, though,

DISTINCTIVE NATURE

Slim LED lights, Air Bumps, bold

Cactus stand out from the crowd.

Love it
Loathe it
so the C4 Cactus should perform
acceptably in a straight line, as its
relatively swift 0-62mph time of 9.3sec
suggests. Top speed is 117mph.
Its also a frugal engine, which should
prove useful, given that our mileage
tends to be quite high. Citron claims
an average of 60.1mpg, which, in
conjunction with a 50-litre tank, should
give a potential range of 660 miles. Of
course, its unlikely that Ill ever manage
to attain such heady heights, but time
will tell. Our car arrived with an indicated
37.1mpg average on the trip computer,
so theres some way to go. A CO2 output
of 107g/km incurs an annual road tax
bill of just 20, though, helping to keep
running costs down.
Youre certainly not going to miss
this aptly titled Hello Yellow Cactus
when it comes rolling down the road

towards you, either. Throw on a couple


of silver stripes and youve got the ideal
counterpart for a high-visibility jacket.
Thats not to say the colour does it any
disservice, mind. Its a breath of fresh
air in streets saturated with myriad
silver and white cars. However, the shy
would do better to opt for a more subtle
shade, because our Citrons vivid
hue is already proving to be a talking
point among colleagues and passersby. Fortunately, a selection of calmer
shades is offered if you feel so inclined.
A standard three-year, 60,000mile warranty wraps up the Cactuss
outwardly appealing package neatly.
Its not an exceptional warranty by any
stretch, but its similar to that offered
by rivals such as the Nissan Juke.
Regardless, the C4 Cactus, at a
glance, appears to have much going for

it and it also looks to have much of


that classic Citron charm in its favour.
Will it be able to really deliver on a
day-to-day basis, though, or will it
merely prove to be a quirky curiosity?
Well be running this particular car
until October to find out just that.

Mazda 3

Mileage | 17,578 a super-coup group test up North gave us a chance to test the Mazdas on-track capabilities

he Mazda 3 is approaching the end


of its tenure with us, and I have to
say Im going to miss it. although
I had some misgivings about its
usefulness as a camera car when it first
arrived, it has proven itself a flawless
performer when it comes to the tricky
business of providing a steady platform
for taking photos.
This was demonstrated again at
blyton Park circuit a few weeks ago,
when it was used as a tracking car
during the Lexus rC F group test
(4 February issue). Theres plenty of
room in the boot for a fully grown man
and his camera gear, and the suspension
dealt with lumpy surfaces, helping to
keep the shots sharp. On larger jobs, Ill
often bring a lot of gear with me, so its
really handy that the car has no problem
swallowing a decent-sized step ladder,
a rig and quite a few camera bags.
at the end of the day, I even took the
Mazda out for a few laps around the
track to explore the cars limits. The

The Mazda proved


remarkably adept
around Blyton Park

3 is relatively light, with a kerb weight


of 1347kg, which is pretty decent
compared with rivals in its class. The
suspension is fairly taut,
helping the 3 to get around
the corners without lurching
over the outside wheels. Its
well balanced, too, and will
wag its tail if you turn in with
too much speed and lift off.
The steering wheel has
plenty of adjustment to get
it where you need it (often
an irritating problem in
other cars without reach
adjustment), but I find
the steering itself a little
Steady as he goes: 3s smooth ride suits Lucs needs
light for spirited driving.

Steering and clutch are a little too light

but the spacing of the pedals is ideal


The clutch is also on the light side, but
the brake and throttle pedals are
perfectly positioned for heel-and-toe
downshifts a useful attribute in a car
that needs to be kept in a high rev band
to exploit the engines power.
The 3s daintiness and practicality
are likely to be useful attributes during
its final weeks with us. Thats because
Im going to take the car down to a round
of the andros Trophy in Saint Di des
Vosges, France. Im also going to take it
snowboarding, extending the trip out to
Ischgl, austria. Ive worked out the total
mileage of the journey to be around
1563 miles and, if my maths is correct,
with the combination of the Mazdas
51-litre tank and the 37mpg Ive been

averaging, that should equate to around


four full tanks of fuel.
To help me tackle the mountains of
austria and keep the car pointing in
the right direction, Michelin will supply
us with a set of winter tyres that Ill be
fitting to the car just before leaving. If
the car manages to get me to the alps
and back with the capability with which
it has handled everything else, it will be
a fond farewell indeed.

Bent numberplate had to be replaced

Toyota GT86

Mileage | 18,300 Look what a mechanical car wash can do to your lovely sports coup

enerally I dont use mechanical


car washes, because they tend
to do half a job and theres no
substitute for elbow grease.
However, the other day I was weak.
It was late, I was in a rush and the GT86
was dirty, in the way only a car that
visits a horse yard every day can be
dirty. I was at a filling station with a
mechanical wash, so I used it.
After it did its shabby, disconcerting,
rag-twisting thing, I drove out, folded
out the door mirrors and reattached the
aerial. Then I spotted a problem.
Now, if you leave things protruding
from a car, you get what you deserve,
but a bent numberplate? I can barely
comprehend how agricultural the
machine must be.
Thankfully, the plate is aluminium,
not plastic, so it bent rather than

Alpina D3 Biturbo
Mileage 7080
Its that time of year again when the
gritters come along seemingly every
night and you feel the need to then
clean your car seemingly every day.
However, I genuinely enjoy cleaning
the D3, despite the fact that its
freezing cold outside and it would

snapping. The garage said they might


foot the cost, but Toyota GB keep the
V5C and thought it easier and cheaper
to just make a new plate rather than
posting me the relevant documentation.
So the GT86s nose is now pristine
again as are the front tyres. It was
actually the rear tyres that needed to
be replaced (while making for amusing
handling, they had all but expired),
but we decided to put the two new
Michelin Primacys (120 each) on the
front this time, while the existing front
wheels were moved to the rear axle.
I was confident that I knew what had
caused the front (now rear) offside
tyres slow puncture, too. It started
after someone borrowed the car to
capture a drift photo, but I suspect
some clumsy understeer eased the
seal around the rim loose, allowing a
tiny amount of air to escape.
No loss could be spotted in a
water bath (at about 0.5psi per day,
Im not surprised), so I momentarily
overinflated the tyre in the hope that
the high pressure would coax it to
reseal, then the tyre fitter tightened the
valve. One of those things seems to have
worked, so I can carry on wearing this
pair down to the legal limit.

cost me only a few quid to get the job


done by my local hand wash squad.
Its gleaming metallic black paintwork
and those lovely jet turbine silver
alloy wheels come right back to life
in front of my eyes when the winter
grime is washed away.
I swear that the D3 feels sweeter

to drive once all the dirt has been


replaced by a shiny new hotwax
finish, too. Its a bit like the feeling you
experience when you drive away from
a service. Everything feels that little
bit crisper and better, somehow, even
though it probably isnt.
In every other way, the D3 continues
to be pretty much the perfect car for
me. Its cabin still looks and feels brand
new, even after six months and 7000
miles. Its twin-turbo diesel engine
continues to loosen up and feels more
potent than ever today, which is saying
something. And its ride, handling,
steering, brakes and general dynamic
personality continue to blow me away.
As does its 40-45mpg economy, allied
to a real-world range of 450 miles.
The only aspect that irks me about
running the car at the moment has
nothing to do with the car itself but,
instead, the price of diesel compared
with the price of petrol. It still costs
more than 60 to fill the D3s tank from
empty, whereas petrol-driving friends
and colleagues are all boasting about

how much less it costs them to fill

Beyond this, however, I really
do love the Alpina to bits. Which
is why I keep recommending it to
anyone serious whos prepared
to listen. When people then come
back to me and say: I tried
it, I loved it, I bought one, it makes

A safer way to buy a Seven

Caterham Cars has just started its own approved used scheme. James Ruppert has his head turned

anufacturer-backed used car


schemes: I love them. In theory,
they mean that you just cant go
wrong when it comes to buying
a used car. The dealer and ultimately
the manufacturer are obliged to look
after you, and if they dont, they should
be thoroughly ashamed. Well, I am
delighted to report that Caterham Cars
has launched a new scheme designed
to offer buyers the finest pre-owned
Sevens in the country.
It is called Caterham Selected and
it means that enthusiasts looking for
a modern or even vintage Caterham
can now purchase a pre-owned model
benefiting from the same peace of mind
as buyers of a brand-new vehicle.
Owners of a Caterham Selected car
66 AUTOCAR.CO.Uk 11 february 2015

will enjoy several benefits: an 81-point


check (as defined by Caterhams own
engineering team), 12 months parts
and labour warranty, a years aa
breakdown cover (including Home
Start), free MOT tests throughout their
ownership of the car and a Caterham
HPI certificate. all very reassuring.
There isnt really an awful lot to go
wrong with Caterhams, and because you
can pretty much see all the innards from
the pavement, it doesnt take long to
see if something is awry. The only issue
I ever have is working out exactly what
the specification is, because there is no
such thing as a standard Seven. but hey,
Caterham can tell you exactly how it left
the factory, either as a complete car or
a kit. Thats the beauty of Sevens: they

Caterham says it picks only quality cars

may look slightly similar but, like their


owners, they are brilliantly individual.
according to Caterham, all vehicles
covered by the scheme are chosen for
their superior condition, specification
and provenance. So lets take a closer
look at some. The bargain basement
ones start at 15,995, which will bag
you a roadsport with either a K-series
or ford Sigma engine. There are also

three years ago for 6000, which included a years tax
and full service history. The mileage is currently 58,800.
The original battery was replaced under warranty, and the
only other problem has been a split breather pipe, which
was sorted for 50 quid. The fuel economy isnt brilliant, but
Steve loves the V6 engine. He relishes the fact that he gets
to drive what is now such a rare and capable car. So far, he
has never seen another one going the other way.

for 17,995, though, I could get a 2006
roadsport in Prisoner paint scheme and
Minilite alloy wheels.
further up the price scale, a bonkers
230bhp Superlight 500 without the
inconvenience of a windscreen is just
23,495. Why on earth bother with one
of those dumbed-down, over-the-top
supercars when right here, for overspecified hatch money, is the wildest
drive youll ever enjoy? after that, its
a struggle to spend anything exceeding
30k when there are such lovely
Superlights to choose from.
The very best thing in all this is that
Caterham will be holding your hand the
whole way. Whats not to love?

Super-cool MPV: a contradiction in terms, surely? No such thing


exists, right? Well, actually, until Renault retired it from the UK,
the Espace qualified. Bonus points for a 2.9 V6 Executive, but a
2.1 TD in Alize spec is more likely.

High-performance cars from the 1990s and


early 2000s can be snapped up for family
hatchback money. Aaron Smith nominates the
best 150mph-plus cars on sale for less than 2k

1 BMW 535i 1996-2003


The E39 generation of the BMW
5 Series saloon has a timeless design, a
superb ride and decent handling. Theres
also a fine range of strong engines, and
the 3.5-litre V8-powered 535i is capable
of topping out at 152mph.
The 535i isnt the most common of
E39s on the market, but we found a tidy
2003 model with an automatic gearbox

and respectable 112,000 miles under its


belt for 1950. The engines themselves
are strong, but look out for worn rear
suspension bushes and electrical
niggles with the ECu.
For Elegant looker and a fabulous
mile-muncher
Against Electrical problems can flare up
from time to time

lexus ls400 1990-2000

One of the most well-equipped luxury


saloons of the 1990s, the Lexus LS400
was arguably ahead of its time when it
was launched. The company spent six
years developing the LS400, racking up
$1 billion in development costs.
It paid off, though. Six-figure mileages
are a regular sight with these luxury
barges, and theres even one example

Volvo V70 T5 2000-2007


Theres a good reason why many
police constabularies across the uK
have employed the Volvo V70 T5 as
a motorway chariot: because theyre
highly durable, practical and a genuinely
fast estate car.
Powered by a turbocharged 2.3-litre
five-cylinder engine kicking out 250bhp,
its capable of 0-62mph in 6.8sec and will
keep on accelerating to 155mph. Being

a Volvo, the V70 T5 possesses thick,
comfortable seats and a high safety

in the classifieds, but look hard and you
can bag a 2003 V70 T5 with a decent
mileage for 1800.
For Spacious cabin, good interior
quality, high safety rating
Against Not the sharpest-handling
estate youll ever find

on record in america that has 902,000


miles on the clock and is still going
strong. Opt for a post-1997 example
and the 4.0-litre V8 engine pumps out
290bhp, helping the car to hit 155mph.
For Superbly built luxury saloon with
plenty of kit

Fiat Coup 20v Turbo 1993-2000

Designed by Chris Bangle, the Fiat Coup


was one of the controversial designers
better-looking efforts. Based on the Fiat

That was mainly down to its

Mercedes-Benz ClK430 1997-2002


The first generation of the MercedesBenz CLK430 is a rare machine, but a
persistent scan of the classified ads will
usually turn up this genuine four-seat
coup with all the toys and a thunderous
275bhp 4.3-litre V8 engine.
Its good for 0-62mph in 6.4sec and a
governed top speed of 155mph. Back in
2001, a brand-new CLK430 avantgarde
would have set you back 56,000.

220bhp. Buy a post-1998 Coup with


the six-speed manual gearbox and it
will crack 0-62mph in 6.5sec and peak
at 155mph. Clean, well-maintained
examples can be had for 1800.
For Dramatic styling, easily exploited
handling, strong performance
Against Ropey build quality, some
engine issues

Today, the same car can be had for a


fiver under two grand with less than
100,000 miles on the clock. However,
Mercedes from this era are renowned

purchase carefully.

From 8000
VWs city car is no revolution just a trademark effort to beat
its rivals on finish, refinement and economy. AAAAC

volkswagen up

hyundai i10

fiat Panda

renault twingo

citron c1

From 8000
The latest i10 prioritises maturity over its former liveliness, but
the refined result is still a first-rate city car. AAAAC

From 9000
While the Panda may not have quite kept pace with its rivals, it
still sells robust, practical charm better than any. AAAAC

From 8000
Cleverly packaged, rear-engined Twingo makes for a cute and
quirky steer. Lacks its rivals sophistication. AAABC

From 8000
Responsive enough and rides okay but the C1 is noisy and a
wee bit cramped compared with its betters. AAACC

Bigger than youd think; probably better, too. Skyactiv diesel
engine is one of the best; interior less compelling. AAABC

From 21,000
Decent, but incredibly sensitive to spec. Get it right and itll
measure up. Get it wrong and it probably wont. AAABC

From 32,000
Ignore the initial outlay; what youre buying here is an SUV with
plug-in hybrid running costs, if used considerately.AAABC

From 866k
McLaren set out to build the best drivers car in the world and
has come ridiculously close. A 903bhp go-kart. AAAAA

Mclaren P1

Porsche 918 spyder

laferrari

Bugatti veyron
From 1.15m
A waning obsession with petrol power taken to its extreme
limit. There are better cars but none quicker. AAAAB

Pagani Huayra

From 674k
Only in this category does five stars not guarantee the class
lead. The 918 feels built to rule, too. A mind-boggler. AAAAA

From 950k
No UK drive means its amazing numbers are as yet unverified
but our first look suggests its reputation is deserved.AAAAB

From 1.4m
The last centurys idea of a hypercar. Staggering in almost every
way not least its looks. As exclusive as it gets.AAAAB

isnt. Firm ride aside, its brilliant. And cheap. AAAAB

Outright speed ensures the S1 grades highly; huge expense
keeps it third. Dependably good rather than great. AAAAC

Peugeot 208 Gti

From 18,000
Came a hairs breadth from toppling the ST. Arguably the
better-rounded option, but not quite as much fun. AAAAC

From 19,000
The Clio falls from grace thanks to its fussy EDC box and high
price. But the chassis dazzles when pressed. AAAAC

From 18,000
Easy to live with, easy to enjoy and quick in a straight line, the
208 is the best GTi Peugeot has built in a decade. AAABC

No one produces as thorough a judgement on a new


car as autocar. as well as acceleration, braking, fuel
economy and noise tests, we carry out benchmark
limit-handling tests, setting lap times if appropriate.
but we dont just drive at the track, essential as it is
for finding the limits of performance; we also drive
on a wide range of roads. We aim to produce the most
complete, objective verdict in the business, so you can
be sure how good a car is. Where we have tested more
than one model in a range, the rating is for the range
overall; where a model within the range meets our
coveted five-star standard, it is highlighted in yellow.

4x4s tested on the farm


13 February 1982
A

n Arctic freeze gripped the UK


during early 1982, laying the icy
ground for an Autocar comparison
test with a difference. A glut of
imported 4x4s threatened the Land
Rovers position as the best utilitarian
go-anywhere vehicle, so the pretenders
were gathered for a six-car test.
The vehicles were the Daihatsu F20
LX, Jeep Laredo, Subaru MV, Suzuki
LJ80 V, Toyota Hi Lux and, er, Portaro
Pampas 260 DL. A disparate group, as
Autocars testers admitted: Their only
real common denominator is that each
wheel can be driven at the flick of a lever,
but how do they fare down on the farm?
The farm? Yes, for this test, Autocar
headed to Wye Agricultural Colleges
2000-acre farm for a series of challenges
to assess farm-worthiness. First up was
the load test: how many calves, sheep or
straw bales could each vehicle carry?
The shape of the load space is
as important as its cubic capacity;
vehicles with intruding wheel arches,
for instance, can take more tall, spindly
calves than normally smaller but shorter
and rounder sheep, reckoned our
testers, going on to declare the Hi Lux,

Vehicleswithintruding

which could accommodate 12 animals or
22 bales, a clear winner.
Dynamic tests comprised towing and
a drive across a snow-laden ploughed
field. The Daihatsu plodded through
our test field in a no-nonsense manner
but the lack of a tow-hitch precluded an
assessment of its towing ability.
The test hinted at the divide between
utilitarian 4x4s and the more stylish
luxury SUVs that predominate today.
The Jeep, for example, appears in the
form of a Kings Road cruiser, kitted out
in cloth seats, carpets and BF Goodrichshod alloy wheels. Even so, it traversed
our test field with scornful ease.
The Romanian-designed, Portuguesebuilt Portaro was the only vehicle on

test that actually looked like a Land


Rover. The cars load space and torquey
engine gave it the thumbs-up from our
experts as a real workhorse.
Subarus MV pick-up was derided
for looking decidedly flashy and
potentially incapable with its road tyres
and low ground clearance, but after
waltzing through most of the tests, it
silenced its critics with an excellent
performance and capacity.
The diminutive Suzuki was hardly
worth considering as a load carrier;
we got only three sheep into the back.
However, it did not baulk at the
ploughed field.
Finally, the Hi Lux topped all of the
others in its ability to carry sheep, calves
and hay, and massive ground clearance
should ensure that the Toyota never gets
hung up on the deepest of rutted tracks.
Autocar ended with a note of caution:
When the Toyota was parked with one
side on ice, the other on snow, the wheels
on ice simply spun. This would have
happened to any of the vehicles in our
farmyard because they lack one feature:
the locking differential, as offered by the
Audi Quattro and Mercedes G-Wagen.
