Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution MR 2010 - Review�
Cruising around the burbs the Evo drives well, considering�the power the engine has, but you feel like your caging the�beast and it’s just waiting to burst out and do some damage.�This car is an awesome machine to drive.

VW Golf GTi 2.0L TSI 6 Speed�manual 3 Door - Review�
The word that describes the GTi is�balance. There are faster hot�hatches, ones that handle better,�ones that are more powerful but�none come close to achieving the�level of balance the GTi has. The�performance, handling, economy,�accommodation trade off is�almost perfect.�READ MORE�
I found the triton to be a good off roader. It went everywhere�we pointed it and only touched underneath once or twice on�the more difficult sections but with the traction aids engaged�made it through.

It has awesome performance, which�very little gives a clue to in its exterior.�READ MORE�
