THE Peugeot 2008 has been with us for a couple of years now and I for one, really like it, but the main talking point with this car, is the engine, which is a recent addition to the range. Designed for economy, on paper its figures are impressive (up to 78.6mpg) but how does it fare in the real world – I’ve been finding out.
THE Dacia Duster is a full four-wheel-drive SUV. Its price tag is a clear indication of what you get – a no-frills but fairly rugged soft roader which comes with a proper four-wheel-drive system capable of running in either two wheel drive or all-wheel-drive.

Driving it brings back more than a whiff of those heady days when the BMW coupes were regarded as being among the kings of the road.
Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV review and roadtest – ENDA MULLEN drives this Plug in Hybrid Electric…
THE journey from willing workhorse to blue-blooded thoroughbred has been both steady and successful. Originally noted more for off-road capability and mud-plugging prowess than drop-dead gorgeous design, the Kia Sorento was a game changer for the Korean car company.
