2009 Mazda MX-5 review
The MX-5 still represents enormous bang for buck in a tight little package.

LAUNCHED: Audi A5 2.0 TFSI Quattro
Turbo four definitely not on the nose.

LAUNCHED: Audi A5
Audi A5 Sportback models that show Audi can, deliver dynamics.

Alfa Romeo Giulietta
147 replacement arrives late but likeable

Review: Infiniti G37
Who do you think you are, Infiniti? That’s a reasonable enough question, seeing as the ‘new’ G37 (born 2007, actually) might be deemed an upstart against its pedigree (if equally aged) BMW 3 Series, Audi A5 and Mercedes C-Class opponents.

Volvo S60 Polestar Limited Edition
Here, at last, is a truly fast Volvo that isn’t rubbish.

Review: Holden Cruze
Difficult though it might be to believe, 2013 is not just about the VF Commodore for Holden.

First drive: Porsche 991 GT3 cup racer
‘The Stahlmeister’ tries out the latest 991 Carrera GT3 Cup race car.

First drive: Volkswagen Polo
Former COTY winner undergoes light facelift with new tech

2009 Mini Cabrio review
Like its pricey stablemate, the BMW M3 Convertible, the latest Mini Cooper S drop-top can put a smile on your dial while you get a 200km/h tan.

LAUNCHED: Volkswagen Polo
New-gen small car ponies up tiny turbo tech.

LAUNCHED: Audi A5 Cabriolet
The Audi A5 Cabriolet performs exactly as you’d expect: it’s extremely refined top up or down.

Kia Sportage
May be misnamed, but won’t be misplaced in suburbia

Driven: Mini Paceman
We’ve all felt it. That ball-clenching, stomach-churning moment of turning into a corner too fast, of feeling the tyres slip, the horror of knowing you’re about to crash.

Review: Volkswagen Golf GTI
Can Volkswagen do no wrong?

Driven! Holden’s new VF Commodore
Does it matter how good the new VF Commodore is to drive?

First Aussie drive: Jaguar F-Type
Associate editor Westerman’s worried. He’s driven Jaguar’s F-Type through Spain’s mountainous north, and in the July 2103 issue, given it bigger raps than Jay-Z and Tupac. But has he got it right? Does European brilliance translate to Aussie awesomeness?

First drive: Honda CR-V Diesel
Honda finally brings the CR-V Diesel to Australia, and it’s got quite a lot going for it as our first drive reveals.

First drive: Skoda Yeti
Czech soft-roader returns with a new face and lower prices

First drive: Porsche Cayman GTS
Porsche makes its fabulous Cayman coupe even better

First drive: Audi S3 sedan
Audi’s hot small car gets a bootful of extra appeal

First drive: Porsche 918 Spyder

First drive: Chevrolet SS
James Stanford drives the Chevrolet SS in Palm Springs.

Review: Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG
You won’t find ‘Race Start’ on the new Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG. The launch-control technology that helps make the smaller E63 AMG the fastest accelerating sedan in Wheels’ history is ignored in the still supercar-fast S63.
