We love a Suzuki Jimny, but a Suzuki Jimny wearing an R5 GT Turbo bodykit? Well, that one we just had to see for ourselves.
LEWIS’ DAY OFF
Ever wondered what F1 drivers do when they’re not racing around? After they’ve caught up with their laundry, of course.
PORSCHE DORIS
When Porsche called up and offered us the keys to its volcanco conquering 911, we almost said no. Just kidding...

Honda ZR-V
WE MUST KICK OFF THIS MONTH'S UPDATE WITH A SMALL ROUND OF applause for the Honda ZR-V. You see, it has slipped into daily life with consummate ease here at TG. It's simply an extremely easy car to live with. The powertrain may sound complex with its twin electric motors, petrol powered motor generator and Honda's 'Linear Shift Control', but from the driver's seat there isn't any real sense of the engineering that's going on underneath. And that's a compliment, honest. The ZR-V is quiet, reasonably refined and actually much more comfortable than I gave it credit for when I first drove this car on the launch in Spain.
