Cars UK has a passion for all things car.
Run from a small office in rural Essex (with lots of interesting driving roads on the doorstep) we are a bunch of Petrol-Heads with a passion for all that goes on in the car world, both in the UK and around the world.
Inevitably run by opinionated know-alls – with a mission to bring the latest Car News to our readers in an informal way, with a big dose of subjective editorial in the mix – we’re kept in check (most of the time) by a balancing view from the girls on the team.
Although the inclination is for the fastest and most expensive cars that come our way, such is the passion for cars that you’ll find news, comment and reviews on anything from a G-Wiz to a Bugatti. After all, if it has wheels and an engine there is always fun to be had. Well, maybe not in the G-Wiz.
We love to hear comment on the news and cars we bring you, and we’d also love to hear suggestions on anything you would like to see. And if you have an interesting bit of car news we’ve missed, just drop us a line, and if we use the information you send us we’ll joyfully give you a credit.
Current Long-Term Test Cars
A day or two with a car gives you a good feel for what it is and what it can do, but nothing brings the reality home more than living with cars long-term. So we have a few long term testers which we will bring you regular updates on. Our current long-term cars include:
- 2006 Porsche Cayenne S
- 2006 Audi A6 3.0 S-Line
- 2007 Mercedes A180 Avantgarde
- 2008 Ford Fiesta 1.25 Zetec Climate
- 2010 Jaguar XJ 3.0 Portfolio (now returned to Jaguar)
