Parrot Asteroid hands-on

The Parrot Asteroid is a great idea in principle. But this Android-powered car stereo's unforgivable lack of apps means it's a real letdown. We reckon you'd be far better off connecting your own Android smart phone to your existing car stereo. Read more

Volvo S60 Drive review

The Volvo S60 Drive's diesel engine means it isn't as green as it may first appear, but the car has some truly breathtaking safety equipment and it's fun to drive, as well as being cheap to run. Read more

Aston Martin V8 Vantage S review

The Aston Martin V8 Vantage S is more potent on the track than the standard V8 Vantage. Its brakes leave something to be desired in extreme situations, and its cabin tech hasn't evolved, but it's a very welcome addition to the Vantage line-up. Read more

Aston Martin Virage review

The Aston Martin Virage is one of the best long-distance cruisers money can buy. It's hugely comfortable, surprisingly luxurious and acquits itself admirably when driven hard. It's let down only by its unintuitive cabin-tech user interface. Read more

Nissan Juke review

A cross between a 4x4 and a super-mini, the Nissan Juke is fun to look at and entertaining to drive, as well as proving fairly practical. It's let down only by its mediocre fuel economy and emissions. Read more

Ford Focus Titanium TDCi review

The new Ford Focus Titanium TDCi's wealth of incredible technology almost eliminates the need for a driver, but those who do take it for a spin will find it's an absolute blast. Read more

Lexus CT 200h review

The Lexus CT 200h hybrid is greener than many of its rivals and offers good fuel economy. Despite its lacklustre straight-line performance, it's also a blast to drive. Read more

Cygnet CarGo review

The Cygnet CarGo is an iPad mount for a car's headrest. It's not suitable for reading text, but it's perfect for watching movies in the back of the car and making kids shut their pie holes for an hour or two. Read more

Toyota iQ review

The Toyota iQ is fun to drive and looks great, but we'd only recommend it to people who rarely carry more than one passenger, as it really is tiny. Read more

HP Veer hands-on

The HP Veer is small, but its webOS software extremely capable -- like a goldfish with the brain of a shark. Its diminutive screen may not be to everyone's taste, but it's a fabulous all-round smart phone that fits in any pocket. Read more
