The previous generation MINI John Cooper Works (JCW) we drove five years ago was a real hoot to steer. Is the face-lifted F56 one just as sharp?


If you find the new Passat to be rather stiff and boxy looking, you might actually like the Superb instead. Strong crease lines add a sharper profile and chunkier cues give the Superb a more muscular shape compared to the Passat’s ‘flat’ look.

How do I specify the interior?

You know where I’m going at here. To be able to own three to five different cars would be the stuff of dreams! But realistically speaking this is Singapore, where all car enthusiasts are considered as pests to the authorities; hence car prices are ridiculously high, cost of keeping even just one car could make one cry at times and unfortunately, majority of us could only afford one car, and one car only for every task. To the, perhaps, 30 percent or so who could afford to have more than one car here in Singapore, you fellas are a really fortunate lot.
