Saab 9-3 convertible 2011 review

The Saab convertible is now a well established model on our roads and although over the years the car has been given sleeker and added various mod cons the concept has remained the same – a soft top that can be used all year round.
It seems that most manufacturers have now gone down the hard top route, which has its pros and cons.

Toyota Avensis review and test drive

The Toyota Avensis has a lot of stiff competition in the area it is placed, with the likes of the Ford Mondeo and Audi A4 being strong favourites in this class. If you look past the out dated stigma of the Avensis being good but dull, you will find a high quality family car that should and could easily rival its competitors.

Firstly, the comfort of this vehicle is impeccable value for the cash you spend, with wind as well as tyre noise kept to a minimum. The amount of room you have is also more than adequate to accommodate 5 adults.

New Citroen C4 Hatchback news and review

The new Citroen C4 has hit the dealer forecourts and is ready to take on the big guns, the Ford Focus and the Volkswagen Golf. Citroen have improved the C4 over it’s predecessor, the novelty fixed hub steering wheel and the big digital speedometer have gone and there is a more quality feel about the new model with good use of premium looking materials and a simple dash lay out.

Citroen do have a habit of building very comfortable cars and having driven a few like the C4, C5 and the very popular DS3 this looks set to continue, so a very safe bet when trying to get from A to B and will also offer great comfort for those long haul journeys as well.
