Matt Bell on 16th March 2021

VW GOLF GTI MK8 REVIEW
Matt Bell on 8th March 2021
The go-to hot hatch has long been the Golf GTI, but recent generations have lost a bit of the sparkle and rivals like the Focus ST and i30N have made it look dowdy. With the new Mk8, Volkswagen claims to have injected the fun back into the GTI, but has it? And could it possibly be worth that pricetag?
HONDA E REVIEW: RWD WITH CONCEPT CAR LOOKS
Matt Bell on 2nd March 2021
It looks like a concept car, it’s rear-wheel-drive and has a turning circle like a taxi – plus you can play Mario Kart on the dash. But the new Honda e isn’t as weird as you might think…
LEXUS RC F TRACK PACK (2020) REVIEW
Matt Bell on 17th February 2021
With a stonking 5.0-litre V8 at its heart and 457bhp to play with, can the Lexus RC F Track Pack take the fight to the Germans?
HONDA NSX NA1 REVIEW
Matt Bell on 25th January 2021
The NSX arrived in 1989, upset the applecart, stayed for 16 years, then left behind an iconic status like no other. What’s it like to drive one today though?

Matt Bell on 8th January 2021
We were all a bit disappointed when Porsche launched the 718 Cayman and Boxster with a droney four-pot. With the Porsche Boxster GTS 4.0, the flat six is back in all its glory and Matt thinks it could be the ULTIMATE Porsche on sale today!

MCLAREN SENNA REVIEW
Matt Bell on 16th October 2020
When McLaren decided to build a hypercar, the aim was high, the challenges – including making it road legal – were prodigious. Then the company raised the bar even further, naming it the McLaren Senna after one of the most uncompromising, controversial and spectacularly fast race drivers who ever lived. Now that calls for both arrogance and supreme confidence. Ayrton Senna would have approved.
