“Munich”?

Sorry, but that car just doesn’t do anything for me. Looks like Land Rover is about to take the Audi approach to styling, where all models look more or less identical without any reference for size.

I don’t need an SUV, which is why I don’t want one. Objectively needing one would be prerequisite to me wanting one of those things.

I think the center console needs more vents to really convey the impression the designers were going for.

“Adequate to keep up with traffic.” In a 260 hp car. Traffic in the U.S. surely must have changed a lot since my last visit there.

Same here. The C2 looks brutal, but in an elegant way. The C3 looks brutal, period. Vulgar, even.

As someone who is seriously into carving (as in “carving a snowboard”) I deeply hate things named “carver” although they don’t leave a groove.

Just picked up our almost-new Insignia this weekend. The whole family loves it, with me loving the LED lights, HUD and the gorgeous seats most of all. I’ll be curious to see how the features hold up over time.

I find the dog hair lets go of the actual cloth seats in my Mazda quite easily. But it is impossible to get out of the carpeting on the floor and in the trunk. Has anyone ever managed to clean one of those after a dog has spent any time on it?

Just pulled the trigger on an Opel Insignia (two years old, 13000 miles, Diesel, manual, FWD). It was the test drive that did it, and the fact that the rear seats feel far more roomy than in the XC70 that was originally the car we thought we wanted.

Pray, what is the difference? To me, this thing is a T4 VW bus, as in 4th gen. Would a “Caravan” be the previous generation, a T3, the last one with the engine in the rear?

Some gorgeous cars there, but not, in my book, the Alfa Spider. That car is the perfect illustration of how the industry took a wrong turn. The spider two generations before that one weighed little over a metric ton. With the next generation, mass jumped to over 1.5 tons, and the thing pictured here weighs up to 1.8…

That is not a U.S. problem. Last month I was at an Opel dealership and told the sales rep that we needed a big car and therefore would like to look at the Insignia wagon. His answer? “That’s not a big car.” This coming from a guy who is supposedly making a living by selling, among other things, this wagon which is…

Some hero user here once called F&F “Twilight for bros.” I want to be his slave for that.

I recently test-drove a large-ish SUV for a weekend. I thought there must be something to them, because everyone buys them. Turns out the something is that they feel like the automotive equivalent of a sumo suit.

Always liked that thing, and the Chrysler 300 C always reminded me of it, despite its obvious stupidity.

The E21?! The first generation with a 323i?

I’d love to get a minivan. Trouble is, all minivans we get in my corner of Europe are like planes: 1st class seating in the front row, Economy in the rear. Since my wife and I often sit in the back, I insist on a car where I can sit comfortably in both rows. All minivan options that would tick that particular box invo…

I gathered as much. However, the thing already has four perfectly serviceable seats, all of which you can sit on while actually using the car, i.e. driving, as opposed to the tailgate.

I actually had an experience. I found it stupid. Maybe I would find it less stupid if the X5 wasn’t as high to begin with. Also, my daily driver has a level opening. After six years I can recall one single instance of something falling out.
