EVO CAR OF THE YEAR
It’s the most important test of the automotive year! Start here to get the skinny on the format, meet all 16 contenders, see how they stack up at Anglesey Circuit and on the fab Welsh roads nearby, and find out which ones make it through to the second round.

ECOTY: THE FINAL EIGHT
The contenders have been whittled down by half, so now it’s off to the Scottish Borders with our favourite 50 per cent for more testing, this time on some of the most revealing roads we know. Adam Towler is your guide to this tough week’s work.

HONDA CIVIC TYPER
Our favourite current hot hatch has just been updated with the aim of making it a better driver’s car than it already was. Has Honda succeeded? Adam Towler decides.

FERRARI 812 GTS
It’s Ferrari’s 812 Superfast, complete with 789bhp naturally aspirated V12 and 200mph-plus top speed, just without a roof. Adam Towler is relieved he doesn’t wear a toupee

McLAREN 620R
It’s Woking’s most hardcore Sports Series model yet, with 611bhp and no shortage of influence from the 570S GT4 race car. Richard Meaden gets the measure of it.

LOTUS EVORA GT410 v PORSCHE 911 CARRERA
These two entry-level, 2+2 sports coupes have oodles of driver appeal, but which one should you spend your £83k on? Antony Ingram decides..

FERRARI SF90 STRADALE
It has just shy of 1000bhp and laps Fiorano as fast as a LaFerrari, yet the SF90 is part of Ferrari’s ‘regular’ range. Richard Meaden heads to Maranello to have his mind boggled.

ICON: MERCEDES CLK63 AMG BLACK SERIES
It wasn’t the first Black Series model, but it was the one where AMG’s allout sub-brand made its mark. John Barker slides back behind the wheel.

WHEN ITALY GETS IT WRONG
For every Enzo there’s an Arna – or worse. Richard Porter looks at the more disappointing products from Italy’s major car-making names (and is surprisingly lenient on the Alfa 4C)..

PORSCHE 911 GT3 RS 4.0
One of our all-time favourite road racers meets the epic roads of Scotland’s North Coast 500. Jethro Bovingdon is the lucky man back behind the wheel.

THE ANATOM Y OF A 1980s TURBO FORMUL A 1 CAR
With as much as 1300bhp and weighing barely half a ton, could the Williams FW11 be the ultimate turbo F1 car? Adam Towler gets up close

SUPERMINI SHOOT-OUT
Can superminis still put a smile on your face? Antony Ingram finds out by trying some of the current crop, and sees how they measure up against some classic tiddlers.

DBS SUPERLEGGER A
VOL ANTE v 600LT SPIDER Aston Martin’s biggest hitter takes on McLaren’s nimblest Sports Series model, both as drop-tops. Thankfully Richard Meaden doesn’t wear a toupee..

FIRST DRIVES
This month: McLaren’s track-only Senna GTR, Aston Martin’s DBX SUV and BMW’s M340i xDrive.

THE KNOWLEDGE
There are a pair of two-star cars in The Knowledge, and we’d much rather have either of them than a Mitsubishi 3000GT.

LONG-TERMERS
Our Audi R8 V10 Performance has left us, but a BMW M135i xDrive has arrived. Meanwhile the 993 Carrera has got new engine mounts, and our new MX-5’s upgraded chassis is proving a hit.

In this issue:

DALLARA STRADALE: Dallara has an enviable reputation
on the racetrack, but can it really have made a car that masters the British B-road at its first attempt? Jethro Bovingdon finds out

RETRO POWER: Got a hankering for a restored classic car with a twist – quite possibly a big one? Nat and Cal Seviour at Leicestershire-based Retropower are the men who can make it happen

In this issue:

COLUMNS Meaden has something to say to the anti-Trophy-R crowd, while Porter is being driven to distraction by an unwelcome noise in his 911

EVO ARCHIVE Back in 2008, the Race of Champions allowed us to tear around its smart Wembley circuit in a quartet of scruffy, well-used, £1000 performance cars. No, we still can’t believe it either

In this issue:

Toyota supra v BMW M2 Competition: The new Supra packs more than a little BMW hardware, so how does it compare to a similarly priced, 100 per cent BMW offering?

MERCEDES-AMG A45 S It’s take two for AMG’s A45, which returns with a class-leading 415bhp (in a hot hatch!) and the promise
of a more involving chassis. Antony Ingram finds out if it hits the spot

981 CAYMAN GT4, M3 CSL,R34 GT- R & TVR SAGARIS Sports cars can come in many different shapes and sizes. David Vivian re-evaluates four disparate examples from recent history

In this issue:

The Knowledge: Yes, we could add the Mitsubishi 3000GT to our listings, but that would mean one of us would have to drive one

Fast Fleet: Ian Eveleigh tries to decide between an M2 Competition and a 1M Coupe (it’d be easier if he could just keep both), Gallagher’s R8 and Towler’s Mustang take to the track, and Antony Ingram says sayonara to our very blue GT86 Club Series

In this issue:

FIRST DRIVE: TESL A MODEL 3 PERFORMANCE Is this the car to convince those who enjoy the thrill of driving that an electric car can be more than a means to ease your social conscience?
 
MILLTEK VW UP GTI There’s little to fault with VW’s diminutive Up GTI, but tuning specialist Milltek has crafted a set of upgrades it thinks have improved it further. Richard Meaden drives it

In this issue:

WORKS GP v R 26.R v M3 GTS They cost a fraction of the price of
today’s exotic road racers but are no less focused in their approach, but has this trio of iconic hardcore middleweights stood the test of time?

PORSCHE 917 AT 50 A car so dangerous to race when new that drivers actively avoided Porsche’s offers to drive it, the 917 went on to become one of the fastest racers of all time. Richard Meaden tries it

In this issue:

ICON: TOYOTA COROLL A AE86 Touring car winner, rally champion and drifting icon – Toyota’s compact coupe achieved it all during its heyday, but is it worthy of its iconic status? John Barker goes for a spin

SUPERSALOON HEROES From the original E28 M5 to today’s F90 M5 we chart the rise of the supersaloon, from yesterday’s made-over  executive saloon to today’s supercar-baiting thrillers

In this issue:

LETTERS: Cupra’s a cynical marketing ploy, Lewis plays second fiddle to Jenson, and we’re wrong about the Swift

gearboxes and a brief where driving thrills were placed well ahead of connectivity and driver aids, this eclectic mix of coupe, roadster and targa prove driver’s cars don’t need six-figure price tags. But where should your money go? Steve Sutcliffe heads to Yorkshire to decide and much more...

2018 TRACK CAR OF THE YEAR: Twelve cars, five judges, two days, one circuit and several million litres of rain. This year’s
TCoty was a challenge but the spread of cars from Toyota’s feisty Yaris GRMN to McLaren’s mighty 570S Track Pack, the ubiquitous Caterham Seven to the, er, ubiquitous Porsche 911 GT3
made the trench foot worthwhile. But there could be only one
winner. Or could there...?
