No model made a greater contribution to MG’s fame than the TC, produced from 1945 to 1949. The first MG to reach volume production status – 10,000 in four years – it became Britain’s first postwar export success. Just over 2000 were shipped to the USA, where it was a More
The Mark V was the first completely redesigned post-World War II model to be produced by Jaguar Cars Ltd, and it continued many of the pre-war traditions of Jaguar cars in terms of style, opulence and the general level of fittings. It continued to use the 2 1/2-litre and 3 More
The Hyundai Tucson is one of the Korean brand’s most popular offerings, a five-seater medium-sized SUV that is big on all-round comfort and stays true to the manufacturer’s good-value proposition. It replaced the ix35 here in 2015 and while most will remember the Tucson name from a previous iteration, this More
Poor old Lotus. Passed around from incompetent owner to (eventually) bankrupt owner and on to an uninterested owner, it’s the sportscar company that could – but can’t because there’s no money. There was a highly amusing – for outsiders anyway – attempt to kickstart Lotus, with ex-Ferrari executive Danny Bahar More

Want to buy a used Mercedes-Benz sportscar at a pretty modest price? Then take a look at this Merc with a different body. An American one. Daimler and Chrysler were partners for a while and Chrysler Crossfire sits on underpinnings of a Mercedes SLK. The shape is great, featuring a More
Nondescript would be a good way to describe the Toyota Kluger when it emerged 14 years ago. Then, the mid-size sports utility vehicle sheepishly stood between the RAV4, Toyota’s cute compact SUV, and the Japanese company’s superhero, the all conquering Land Cruiser. Not any more. The Kluger has since muscled More
The facelifted Renault Clio not only has a stronger look but also added features and – best of all – it’s prices have been trimmed by $2000. The range now starts at $15,990 for the Clio Life manual, and stretches up to a still pretty reasonable $22,990 for the Clio More
Land Rover chose one of Australia’s most iconic and recognisable locations, Uluru, to launch the latest version of its Discovery SUV. You will need to take our word for this because, in respect to the wishes of the traditional owners of the land, no photographs will be published showing the More
Toyota has dominated 4WD and SUV markets in Australia for many decades. In October 2003 it introduced yet another vehicle to its range, the Toyota Kluger. It sits neatly in the gap between the smallish RAV4 and the relatively serious chassis-mounted Prado. Kluger is based on a car platform, similar More
