Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet 2026 review: Meet the new boss March 27, 2026 In automotive days of old, a mid-life facelift often comprised a set of clear indicator lenses and some extra plastic chrome around the grille. Maybe a standard rear wash/wipe if you were lucky. There are no such half-measures here. Despite appearances, the updated 992-generation Porsche 911 Turbo S – known to enthusiasts as the 992.2 [...]

Porsche Taycan GTS Sport Turismo review: grace, space and pace October 24, 2025 Launching an EV felt like a big risk for Porsche back in 2019, yet the Taycan was a triumph. The press declared it a ‘proper Porsche’ and buyers formed an orderly queue. Within a year, it overtook the Macan as the best-selling Porsche in Europe. Then in 2021, it outsold the 911 worldwide. How quickly [...]
Porsche 911 Carrera S 2025 review: No longer the one-size-fits-all sports car October 24, 2025 The Porsche 911 was launched in 1964 as a one-size-fits-all package. Stump up £3,438 and you got a 130hp 2.0-litre engine inside a coupe body. Not your cup of kaffee? Sir or Madam could consider a Jaguar E-Type or Mercedes-Benz 190 SL instead. It didn’t take long for the 911 range to expand, however. A [...]

Kamm 912C Full Carbon review: Seeing the light in Porsche restomod September 3, 2025 Kamm describes the 912C as ‘an antidote to extreme hypercars’. After several hours spent exploring the back roads of Oxfordshire, I’m minded to agree. However, this particular brand of medicine isn’t a herbal remedy or soothing sedative; it’s a shot of neat adrenalin, plunged directly into a major artery. Less an antidote, then, more like [...]
The best restomods to buy in 2025 September 1, 2025 Restomods divide opinion like a famous jar of yeast extract, but clearly they are here to stay. And rightly so in our opinion – these modified classic cars are more exploitable and exciting to drive than almost anything sold new in 2025. We have driven some truly fabulous restomods, including cars based on iconic Porsche, [...]
