Kia Stinger
The Korean invasion from Kia has been very much under the radar. They came to the UK selling quite boring looking, cheap cars with a great warranty.

They successfully launched the Range Rover Sport and then the equally popular Evoque, both […]

Alfa’s have never had the best reputation for build quality or reliability but they have made some stunning looking cars that also drive really well.

Land Rover Discovery
The Discovery was launched in 1998 and it was originally launched with three doors. The five door was launched in 1990 and both cars had five seats as standard and two more jump seats were available as an optional extra. The car’s interior was designed by the Conrad group and it was classed as a […]
