This week: Our world exclusive story on TVR, plus Mini’s new SUV concept and we drive the Mercedes EQXX concept
It’s a packed mag this week, including a world exclusive on the future of famed British sports car firm TVR (pick up a copy to find out more!). Elsewhere, we get behind the wheel of the range-defying Mercedes-Benz EQXX, and "best car they make" Aston Martin DBX 707.
Here is everything you can expect from our latest issue.
*News*
In this week’s news section, we reveal everything you need to know about Mini’s latest concept car, the Aceman, which previews a new SUV arriving in 2024.
We’ve also got all the facts on the “fastest, most addictive” Honda Civic Type R to date as well as the new electric Alpine A110 concept.
*Reviews*
The mad Mercedes EQXX leads our first drives section this week. It’s an electric concept car that can take you from central London to John o’Groats without a stop to recharge, but what’s it like to drive?
Elsewhere, we drive the Aston Martin DBX 707; a car almost completely opposite to the EQXX with muscular SUV proportions and a snarling 697bhp V8 engine. The Cupra Leon also goes through our full road test to determine whether it’s worth considering against the Volkswagen Golf GTI.
*Features*
Motorsport specialist Damien Smith visits the set of a new movie being made about the Audi Quattro’s duel with the Lancia 037 in Group B rally and leaves with high hopes.
Meanwhile, Jim Holder visits a classic car show on his doorstep and John Evans investigates the rise in drug driving.
*Opinions*
Matt Prior explains his love for the Australian Supercars racing championship but has problems following it in the UK, while Steve Cropley laments his first speeding fine in 20 years.
*Used cars*
The famed 997-generation Porsche 911 GT3 features as our cult hero this week, while the Vauxhall Corsa is our shrewd nearly-new buy.
