The coupe has a lower seating position than the saloon

What is it? BMW has enhanced the seminal two-door version of their performance icon, the M3 coupe, with a model called the Coupe Edition. It sports some new colours and body bits, some dark chrome treatments, a 10mm lower ride height, and a series of subtle but telling interior changes that do just enough to justify a special name. What’s it like? You’re talking about a compact car with a 420 bhp, 4.0-litre V8 in the nose, driving the rear wheels through a seven-speed paddle-shift gearbox. The coupe already has quite a few advantages: a smaller frontal area tha...

Only the 210bhp petrol Saab9-3X gets four-wheel drive

What is it? This is the new Saab 9-3X, which constitutes not much less than a new lease of life for Saab’s ageing compact competitor. Only available with an estate body but with either a 180bhp 1.9-litre diesel or this, a 210bhp, 2.0-litre petrol motor, the Saab 9-3X will enter the market this summer at the same time as the new Audi A4 Allroad to make a new class of compact soft-roader. Lack of development money precludes changes to the metal on the Saab 9-3X, but the new bumpers, side sills, wheel arch covers and round tail pipes are surprisingly successful at giv...
