Volkswagen Eos 3.2 V6 FSI Sport DSG first drive

As pleasant to drive as any Eos in the range, but we'd save £5k and stick with the 2.0-litre turbo

Mitsubishi Outlander 2.0 Di-D Equippe first drive

Mitsubishi's soft-roader takes a big leap forward in both material quality and specification but, although it's decent enough dynamically, it needs a better diesel engine

Proton Impian 1.6 GSX

Light facelift hasn't banished any of the Impian's really unforgivable flaws. It's cheap, but in almost every respect, it feels cheap too

Nissan Skyline Type SP first drive

The latest Skyline's refined, well-appointed, great to drive and bodes well for the forthcoming Nissan GTR. Its European introduction can't come soon enough

Audi TT Roadster 2.0 TFSI first drive

New open-top Audi icon may look derivative rather than innovate like its predecessor, but it's brand new underneath, impressively-engineered with it, and actually pretty good value-for-money

Porsche 911 Targa 4S first drive

It’s not for hardcore 911 fans, and it’s not cheap either, but it is a great compromise between coupe and cabrio 911s. As great to go open-air touring in as it is to tear up a country road.

Volvo C30 D5 SE Sport Geartronic

Five-pot turbodiesel gives the stylish and solid-feeling C30 real motorway shove. Just don't expect it to feel like a 'GTi-D' on a country road, and don't expect it to be cheap

Mazda 3 MPS first drive

Ferociously quick - not that you'd know from looking - the Mazda 3 MPS is an effective overtaking tool, but lacks a little involvement and the chassis balance to keep with the fastest thorugh the corners
