I don't even want an uber wagon. A medium to hot wagon would be ideal, and so far as I can tell, there's nothing like that on the American market.

Seriously. My good lady is American, and when we eventually make the move, for the longest time I always thought a lightly used S4 Avant would be perfect, even with DSG instead of a manual. Then I found out it isn't sold in the US. Bah, here's hoping the V60 Polestar is awesome.

We do get the Colorado, it's just sold under the Izuzu brand in the UK, and by the look of the pics on 4x4's website, features in the test.

I'd find an older one if I were you. The 13" wheels on the Mk7 absolutely kill the ride and handling (though they do look very tasty) and the emissions regulations meant the engine was totally starved of power. If you must have fuel injection, get an SPi Mk6, or if that's not important, a carb fed model, which are far…

New car is bigger than old car shocker! And I suppose we're going to get an endless succession of comments about how you can't call it a Mini because it's so large so ha ha, call it a Maxi blah blah blah. Words and names see their meanings change all the time, and just because Mini once meant something close to…

But not the M5, M6, M6 Grand Coupe, S4, S5 sadly. And BMW will eventually drop the manual option on the M3/M4 in the old world, of that I have no doubt.

Because he couldn't make the sums work on an X6?

Lincoln doesn't have a chance until they stop only offering redressed Ford's. I'm not saying this makes them bad cars, but I see no reason why you'd choose the Lincoln variant over the Ford and certainly not over the equivilent offering from Cadillac or the likes of Lexus.

Not in Europe they don't...

The new Mini (Sorry, MINI, because we must shout!) has as much in common with that glorious movie as I do with Michael Caine.

Corolla with a hood scoop. There was an uproar when Subaru announced the UK wasn't getting the next WRX, but if this is it, I can't say I'm bothered.

The closest was probably the Lotus Evora, which might not be reasonably priced, but is a hell of a lot closer to attainment for us mere mortals. Evo Car of the Year tough is about finding the ultimate drivers car of the year, so entry price isn't a big issue in these roundups.

The intro was clips of the video tests they've done this year, but ECOTY is always whittled down to the cream of the crop, and neither the GT-R or the F-Type made the cut this year it seems (though the GT-R was Evo's car of they year a while back).

They usually include one or two cars at £20-£40k, in years past they've had Renaultsport Meganes, Imprezas and Evos and I'm pretty sure one year (2007?) they had the Suzuki Swift Sport.

No. 1 is a classic case of someone under the delusion they can recoup the cost of restoring their car in the asking price. Money spent does not equal investment, especially in cars.

Good man! I both love RS Audi's and hate (HATE) the Daily Mail, so hat tip to you, sir.

YES. And where everyone supports the team local to you and/or has a cousinbrotheruncle who lives there. Lovely, lovely people, but the constant negotiation got old pretty fast.

Oh Morocco. Eighties-era euro superminis fighting rush hour traffic fun, but ONLY after you negotiate your fare before even getting in.

UGH, no. I know Jalops are supposed to love these damn things, but every time I've been in one while in the US, I've hated it. They're too bumpy and the interior is ridiculously cramped for the size of it. I'm not saying a Nissan minivan is the best alternative, but it sure as hell beats my knees jammed up against the…

You CAN import them into the US though, so long as you install a 25-mph speed limiter on it. Presumably because you're rich, suicidal, but haven't decided when you want to die, so you're going to leave it up to fate.
