Our guess is the new A3 will be on display at the Australian International Motor Show in October before going on sale locally early next year. Seeing as you can’t see the car […]
After his disappointing piece for the BMW M550dX Chris Harris is back in form with this Porsche Boxster S review. For the first time it has him questioning his preference for the mighty 911.
