Meet one of FPV’s hottest rides, the 2012 FPV GT-P MKII. It comes with a tyre-smoking 335kW supercharged V8 that is definitely not for the fainthearted. The only thing that stands between the GT-P and a sub 5.0-second 0-100km/h time is its grunt-to-tyre ratio. 2012 FPV GT-P MKII – PROS […]

2013 Ford Focus ST review (video)
This is the new 2013 Ford Focus ST. It’s the replacement to the very popular XR5. For the new model, Ford decided to relegate the howling XR5 2.5-litre five-cylinder turbo engine – potentially upsetting enthusiasts – and has introduced a 2.0-litre EcoBoost four banger. Ford fans needn’t fret though, the […]
2012 Ford Territory Titanium TDCi RWD review (video)
Ford Australia might be a bit late to the large turbo-diesel SUV market segment, but it doesn’t stop the 2012 Ford Territory Titanium TDCi from being a very worthy contender. Especially if you compare its entry-level price to the rivals and take into account that, unlike the others, it has […]

2012 Ford Kuga Trend review
The 2012 Ford Kuga Trend is easily the best-sounding compact SUV on sale at the moment. Its 2.5-litre five-cylinder turbo engine is derived from the grin-inducing Ford Focus RS‘s power source, while the jumped up body allows you to have some fun off road. 2012 FORD KUGA TREND – PROS […]
2012 FPV GT FG MKII review (video)
Since the GT nameplate was introduced back in 1967, we’ve seen quite a few interesting expressions of the famous Ford. The latest 2012 FPV GT FG MKII version is the most powerful yet. With a 335kW supercharged V8 under the bonnet, it’s easily capable of sending the speedometre into a […]
2012 Ford Falcon G6 EcoBoost review (video)
It’s finally here, the four-cylinder Falcon. Will it be a game changer? Will it save the Aussie Falcon? The 2012 Ford Falcon G6 EcoBoost is one of three variants to feature the new engine, so let’s see how it all goes. (Obviously the key focus on this review is how […]
