Ford Kuga 2016 Model


Ford Kuga 2016 Model





The car drive is the best from a kuga yet. But go for the 4x4 cos thats the only one with the 2.0l 180bhp diesel engine.
It comes with either 148 or 180 bhp, don't go for the 148 as it is terribly underpowered.
148bhp:
            0-62mph: 10.1s
            Top speed: 121 mph.
            Torque: 236lb to ft
180bhp:
            0-62mph: 8.9 seconds
             Top speed: 126 mph
             Torque: 236lb to ft

        My sister has resently had problems with the 148 break horse power fuel pump because they are very tempermental but once they are replaced it shouldn't happen again but make sure the car is under warranty and it is a 200 pounds to replace.
The ride is absolutley terrible on the motorway because it is too bumpy. You don't get the 10 horse power with the 2 wheel drive it is 4 wheels drive only. Unless you pay extra for an upgrade. Both have ipod connectivity but with the titanim x it is nicer to drive. The Hundrend and eighty horse power you have more than enough power for the motor way runs, it drives well but the ride is still very bumpy, it could be a little bit more comfortible but apart from that it is very good. The 180 bhp is the best version yet, but now they also do a 150 horse powered feation os it which is okay as this is the engine I have in the galaxy and is a little bit underpower. The kuga will be ok as it is a little bit heavier if you don't want the one eighty get another car, simple as that. It also has heated windscreen

2 Litre single turbo diesel 
BHP: 180
Torque- 399 ft lb
0-62: 8.4 seconds
Top speed 140 mph
Average MPG: 64.2


update: it drives incredible, for a mondeo. The drive is great, this is the best mondeo I have ever driven. The ride is really comfortable and you can make the most of the power. With either the manual or the automatic but if you go for the automatic leave it in sport mode and use the paddles to get the best out of it. I would personally go for the 6 speed manual. The automatic also comes in 6 speeds as well. It has air con, cruise control and sat nav as standard, with the titanium model. if you want leather you have to pay extra.

The  handling is astonishingly good.
On the motorway if performs extremely well. went you want to overtake extremely quickly just use the paddles on the side of the steering wheel.left hand side to go down the gear box, right hand side to go up.There is also sports mode to use as well. The vehicle has heated windscreens. 

End of report.

Mercedes A350 AMG


They're not as fast as the old blue efficiency engine, which used to be 6.2 (0-62mph). This is half a second slower, and half a second's a lot, know what I mean (to 62mph it's 6.7)? So personally, stick with the blue efficiency engine, unless you can't get it, 'cos they don't do it any-more. Unless you want the old model.

The older model is the better car, in my opinion. From 2013 they stopped it. 2013 was the last time you could get it. From 2014 they started with the blue-tech engine.

Mercedes C250 AMG Sport (Four door Saloon)


It drives perfectly, it's better than a CLA anyway. Go for the 250 Diesel, not the 220, 'cos the 220's a little bit slow A little bit sluggish and a little bit underpowered. the 220 has 170BHP, it's 0-62 is 7.8, and its torque is 295 ft/lb. you can see how the 250 is a much more powerful engine, if you have to go for the 220 get it in manual. but I do no recommend the 220 or a c class without an automatic gearbox, as it is a car built for relaxing not racing about. the 250 has a top speed of 143mph I recon you'd just about get away with the 250. both cars have cruise control and electric front and rear windows.
make sure you go for the AMG pack, doesn't matter which model still go for the AMG because the look a lot better.
as usual I will let you know once I have been on a journey in it.
power: 204 bhp
torque: 369 ft/lb
6.6sec 0-62mph
153mph top speed.

Ford Galaxy Titanium



Ford Galaxy Titanium [A gun metal grey 2015]



This is my car

Just bought this car it is superb. There's plenty of torque, plenty of mid-range power - I thought it was more than enough, but I was wrong.

9.5 SEC TO 62 MPH
126 MPH
251 LBS.FT Torque.

I have got it now and it drives fantastically well with cruise control, speed limiter which you can take  off (I don't advise this, but it's up to you). With a 2.0L Diesel engine it has a choice of 140BHP or 163BHP and 53.3MPG

The 163 is the better unit with 300ft torque of mid-range power, it's got a six speed manual gearbox, air-conditioning, 17" alloys and it's the best driving MPV ever (so far)! Best I've had.

After an excellent motorway run, it's going really well, and never lost power. It is very easy to drive it hard you can't resist. The only downfall is the mid range power could be a bit better.

I have had it now for just under two year and it has been an excellent car but at the top end it is surprisingly unpowered for a 2 litre.

"Three Year update"
I have had this car for three years and I haven't ever had an issue with it, it has never broken down. It has started every time, I have really enjoy the ownership and I maybe regret getting a new car, I hope I am wrong.

"Last update"
I whole heartedly Regret, getting rid of this car it was a superb motor and it served me well for three years without trouble, I recommend to anyone to give this particular spec of motor a try. It also comes with heated windscreen.

It's a V6 3L Turbo Diesel, 0-62 in 6.7 secs, top speed limited of 155MPH, with a MPG of 35 MPG and with a 265BHP. torque is 400 ft/lb. This car has a standard seven speed gearbox. I would personally use it in sport mode. It drives well, but it is not as nice as the drive of the 535 BMW, it is the equivelent to the 7 series but does not drive as well as the 730dm sport.

Range Rover Rogue Autobiography

The Range Rover Vogue has a 4.4 litre v8 engine twin turbo diesel.
339 bhp and 516 ft-lb of torque.
0-62 in 6.5 seconds it will carry on to a top speed of 135mph.
This Range Rover has an eight speed gearbox.
air suspension all round.

it drives really well but make sure you go for the top of the range autobiography model because it comes with every luxury you can think of as standard but it is 110,000 pounds to buy new. you can get them cheaper on the second hand market which i recommend.
it does drive well but i am yet to be on the motorway with it, will give a full report one i have done a full analysis of the car's potential,

Mercedes CLA Class


2014 Mercedes CLA. It looks amazing, but... it doesn't drive that well for a Mercedes. The 220 version, diesel, doesn't drive great. It needs more power. So the 250 would be better. It's got a very firm ride.... not very comfortable at all.

The 220 CDI goes 0-60 in 8.2 seconds and returns 67.3 mpg.
