Despite all the negativity on the forums, I am loving my week in the V50. Quiet, comfortable and smooth — I have been saying those words a lot lately — but the V50 is yet another vehicle that is all of these things and more. Despite being built on the same chassis as the economical Mazda3, the Volvo feels worlds apart from it. More…

Sorry to disappoint those who thought I might be driving a GT-R this week, thanks to my hint of driving a Nissan sans the VQ 3.5litre V6 engine. But this week I’ll be running my errands in the Nissan Versa, the compact car that competes with sub-compacts on price but compacts on size and… versatility. More…

This week I am driving GM’s latest European import. Yes, you read that correctly: an import from a domestic company. The Saturn Astra, a.k.a. the Opel Astra in Europe, brought over by GM to become Saturn’s new entry level vehicle. You can tell it wasn’t fiddled with too much along the way. More…

Audi has been causing a lot of stir in the automotive world lately. First, there’s the Canadian Car of the Year, the 420hp Audi R8, which was closely followed by the A5/S5 coupe and finally, the new 2009 Audi A4, which was revealed at the Detroit auto show with larger dimensions and more refinement than ever.

It never ceases to amaze me how many different brands and models of vehicles there are out there these days. This is the first time I have reviewed a Saab, and I’ve been doing this for close to two years now. There are other brands and many models out there I haven’t reviewed, but this week the Saab 9-3 is my focus. More…

Another week, another car. This week, something more in line with what the average Canadian consumer has in their sights — an inexpensive sedan with some innovative features and an efficient engine with which to save at the pumps. My 2008 Ford Focus SES tester fits that description fairly well. More…

Introduced just barely a year ago, the 2007 Kia Rondo took me by surprise. It seemed to be the first vehicle in ages that hit the showroom floors before I had heard of it — without any fanfare at all. The Rondo is a competitor in the small family car segment and the Mazda5’s only true competition. More…

So here I thought last week’s car had lots of toys and gizmos — the Cadillac CTS certainly did have a lot, but the new Volvo XC70 is trying to outdo it this week with safety features and toys to keep this techno-geek amused. More…

Completely redesigned for 2008, the new Cadillac CTS has been causing a lot of people to take notice of GM and Cadillac. For me personally, the new CTS was one of the few releases at last year’s Detroit auto show that I was looking forward to driving to see how much better it really was. More…

It has been almost exactly one year since I reviewed the 2007 Suzuki SX4; Suzuki has now introduced the 2008 Suzuki SX4 Sedan for those that are not so keen on hatchbacks, and it is quite a looker for a small car. Year after year, car after car, I keep saying compact / economy cars are no longer the penalty boxes they used to be, and the SX4 Sedan reinforces this statement once again. More…
