OOONO Co-Driver NO2 Review – Can This Gadget Really Help You Avoid Speed Cameras?

A tiny puck-shaped gadget promising to warn drivers about speed cameras and road hazards – I tested the OOONO Co-Driver NO2 to see if it really works

Modern cars are crammed with technology. Screens everywhere, navigation systems that want to talk to you constantly, lane-keeping assistants tugging at the wheel, and warning chimes that make you feel like you’re piloting a passenger jet rather than driving to Tesco. And yet, despite all that technology, there is still one thing many drivers worry about: speed cameras. Enter the OOONO Co-Driver NO2, a small Scandinavian gadget that promises to act like a silent passenger in your car – warning you about speed cameras, road hazards, and traffic issues ahead without distracting you with yet another screen. It’s an interesting idea. But does it actually work? Let’s give it a go!

MG Cyberster GT Review – Detailed Daily Driver Review

Why This Electric Roadster Matters More Than You Think

I first drove the MG Cyberster earlier last year on a brief test at Millbrook Proving Ground. Enough to intrigue, enough to raise eyebrows, but not enough to truly understand it. This time, MG handed me the keys for a week. Living with a car exposes its truths. Its cleverness. Its quirks. Its brilliance. And occasionally, its foibles.

Toyota C-HR PHEV GR Sport (223bhp) Review: Everything You Need to Know Before Buying

The Toyota C-HR has grown up, plugged in and gone premium – but does the range-topper still have the spark that made the original so memorable?

I’ve always had a soft spot for the Toyota C-HR. When the original arrived, it felt like a small act of rebellion from a brand better known for playing things safe. It was sharp, angular, unapologetically different, and crucially, it didn’t try to hide its personality. Better still, in its early years you could even buy one with a petrol engine and a manual gearbox, complete with rev-matching. A crossover that actually wanted to be driven. That alone made it stand out.

1986 Toyota AE86 Corolla GT Coupé Review

Does the legend of the ‘Hachi-Roku’ from the mid-80s live up to the reality of driving one in 2025? Here’s my full review of the Japanese icon!

Remember the 1980s? When the world ran on optimism, synth-pop and questionable fashion choices? I mean, I personally sported a pastel green blazer in crinkled material with roll-up sleeves and shoulder pads large enough to land Airwolf on. But you know what? Best decade ever in my not-so-humble opinion. Especially for music, movies and motors.

So imagine my delight when Toyota handed me the keys to something straight out of that era: their own 1986 Toyota Corolla GT Coupé, better known to you, me and every manga-obsessed drift fan on earth as the AE86 Hachi-Roku.

2026 MG S6 EV Review: The Big, Calm, Grown-Up MG EV

MG’s new S6 EV arrives as a grown-up, spacious and impressively refined electric SUV that could tempt many families away from the usual big-brand choices

The 2026 MG S6 EV arrives without theatrics, yet the moment you walk around it, sit in it and drive it, you realise MG has shifted up a gear. This is the brand’s new family-sized electric SUV, the one many households have been waiting for. It sits on the same modular platform as the MG S5 EV but stretches everything further. A 77 kWh battery, rear-wheel-drive or dual-motor all-wheel drive, up to 329 miles of official WLTP range, and prices sitting roughly between forty-one and forty-four thousand pounds. MG is not pretending this is “budget” anymore. It is aiming for the mainstream.

2026 Suzuki E Vitara Review – India’s First Global EV Lights Up the UK!

Suzuki’s first electric car isn’t from Japan – it’s from India! The E Vitara blends a Desi heart with Japanese engineering precision, and right now it’s one of the best EV bargains on sale in Britain

Japanese car companies have always been on the leading edge of engineering. Innovating, developing, breaking new ground – surging ahead of the crowd in surprising new ways. And Suzuki’s latest new car… doesn’t conform to any of that. Well, apart from the ‘surprising’ bit.

Because the new E Vitara isn’t truly Japanese at all. It’s more like a takeaway tikka delivered by a samurai. And given how much Brits love a good curry, Suzuki’s first fully electric car – designed and built by Maruti Suzuki in Gujarat, India – rolling off the boats onto our roads at barely believable prices, is surely going to go down a treat. You won’t even need the Alka-Seltzer for this one.

Polestar 4 Comprehensive Review

The Fastest Polestar Ever! But No Rear Window

Before we get into all the details of the Polestar 4, let’s answer a question that might be preying on the mind of the uninitiated – what exactly is Polestar? Well, it used to be the performance and motor-racing arm of Volvo. After Chinese giant Geely took over Volvo, Polestar was separated into a standalone brand in 2017 to focus on producing only electric cars.

Review: Superman 2025

James Gunn Goes Back to First Principles – and It Works, thankfully!

This is not the best Superman movie. I just wanted to get that out of the way. Superman the Movie (1978) and Superman II (1980) still place first and second on the podium pedestals. However, could the latest James Gunn Superman movie actually take that third position – an unthinkable proposition surely?

Suzuki Swift AllGrip Ultra Hybrid Review

Affordable, economical, all-the mod-cons, clutch pedal and manual box, old-school handbrake and all-wheel drive – the last most logical car left on the market?

Some cars are more than the sum of their spec sheets. Some cars are hidden gems. Some cars are unexpected delights. Some cars actually make sense on multiple levels. Some cars are the new, £22k, 2025 Suzuki Swift AllGrip Ultra Hybrid tested here. 

If you like eager little hatchbacks that will dart in and out of city gaps, provide usable passenger and boot space, engage you with heel-and-toe downshifts and cheeky handbrake turns, sip fuel while being refined at motorway momentum, and even scrabble over churned-up gravel while wading through rain pools. Then you’ve landed on the right road (off-road) test!

Don’t Watch the F1 Movie Starring Brad Pitt…

…once. Watch it again and again!

There’s only one reason you shouldn’t watch the new F1 movie starring Brad Pitt. And I’ll tell you that reason at the end of this article. But I have to be honest, I really wasn’t sure about this one. When we first heard whispers of this movie being made my scepticism levels were through the roof. Brad Pitt? In a Formula 1 car? Come on, the bloke’s 60! Surely he’s going to play a team principal, right? Nope – he’s a driver. My eyebrows rose so quickly they nearly overtook Verstappen.
