Volvobrick Supersonic February 13, 2020 Share February 13, 2020 A French car with tons of electronics... what can possibly go wrong? ↡ Advertisement 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watwheels Supersonic February 13, 2020 Share February 13, 2020 DS7 is so much more costlier than its cousins 3008 and Grandland X. I think its a no brainer why this car is so rare on the roads. Cant see the taillights/signal lights when the boot is opened. Kinda dangerous at night if you are stranded along the road. You will be stranded at some point.😁 In countries like the US they wont allow such cars to be sold there because of the tail and signal lights cant be seen when the boot is opened. They consider it a hazard. Is the French Yellow Vest protest over? We always joke about how their parts are not available or they build the car halfway and go strike. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabyBlade Internal Moderator February 27, 2020 Author Share February 27, 2020 For today's car review, we revisit an old friend with a new look - the Mercedes-Benz CLA Shooting Brake. Speaking of new, Julian is joined by a new host this week! Welcome Idris to the channel as he and Julian drive the Shooting Brake around Singapore while trying to keep a low profile with that Sun Yellow paint job.

Jwee85 5th Gear February 27, 2020 Share February 27, 2020 My personal opinion Someone should keep reminding the Julian to control his hands from keep touching his nose, face, chin, seat belt, etc. Its kinda turn off, to then see the the 'oily' hands touching the steering wheels, controls, etc, on a brand new test drive car. Maybe paste a piece of paper on the steering wheel as a reminder 'Dont Touch Yourself'. 2 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy behind is a good reminder why I skipped the car from my consideration in the first place. Rear is really really cramped at it's width. Only the front can make it. And yes.. The height also.

BabyBlade Internal Moderator March 23, 2020 Author Share March 23, 2020 The Hyundai Venue is a sub-compact crossover catered to trend-chasing millennials. That means you get unique exterior styling and a quirky interior. But the Venue still hits with a drivetrain that delivers on fuel economy and a comfortable drive. Could this be the ideal car for you as well? How does the Venue's CVT transmission feel on the go? Watch our full video review to find out more!

BabyBlade Internal Moderator March 26, 2020 Author Share March 26, 2020 The Porsche Cayenne Coupe delivers sporty looks and an exciting drive with only minimal compromises to its original SUV brief of all-round practicality. Add to that a luxurious interior and a deep boot with comfortable seats and this bright orange car becomes a genuine product to lust after. But does the absurd price of some of the car's options put our testers off the car? Watch the full video to find out! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BabyBlade Internal Moderator April 2, 2020 Author Share April 2, 2020 The Jaguar F-PACE SVR is propelled by a supercharged 5.0-litre V8 that will see the 2,070kg SUV do the zero to 100km/h sprint in just 4.3 seconds. And all that performance is matched by a sweet exhaust system that does not shy away from delivering a fusillade of cracks and pops. But it seems our testers are once again troubled by the car's paint colour, which finds itself matching that of a more humble car. Just what is wrong with the colour choice?

Davidklt 6th Gear April 2, 2020 Share April 2, 2020 (edited) On 11/13/2019 at 6:19 PM, Zxcvb said: It's a good start. I believe many here are already subscribed to many many car review channels base in US, Europe, Taiwan, China, Malaysia, etc. So the yardstick is very high for viewers to compare. Also keep in mind as a Singapore based car site, the review have to relate to us in everyday driving. So the perspective have to be along the typical Singaporean car owner mindset. Reviews from other countries kinda hard to relate cos no mountain road to drive, no straight highway, no cold weather, no wide roads, no freely available parking, no personal garage, no race track, no abandoned airfield, etc. It is a good start and I know its not easy to do it. But is it just me that don't have the videos informative at all ? And most of the videos don't have a conclusion on the view points ? So is the car in question good or bad ? For example, for the CLA review, out of the whole review, maybe 1 min or so of footage really just talk about the car? Imagine having to watch thru more than 10 mins to get 1 min of information. Also, the reviewers don't seems to confident in their view points as well. Just my personal rant for the day. Keep going. Keep improving. Videos are the way to go as car magazines are slowly getting obselete. Edited April 2, 2020 by Davidklt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamAMG69 3rd Gear April 3, 2020 Share April 3, 2020 in Sinkie review (majority ), the below are critical in terms of importance (my personal take) 1) Price of Car (after discount, OT, trade in, etc) / Brand Image 2) Resale 3) reliability / ease of spare parts / third party workshop support 4) 0-100 spec time (you may argue, but let's be honest, all look at this number) for bragging and feel good all those mountain / B-roads / driving dynamics / cornering story is not that "important" to the average Sinkie driver 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BabyBlade Internal Moderator April 10, 2020 Author Share April 10, 2020 The new BMW 1 Series may now be front-wheel drive, but it still delivers an engaging drive and a quality cabin, coupled with handy driver assistance features, making it a convincing entry into the premium compact hatchback segment. But does the new front-wheel drive format yield its dividends in boot and rear passenger space? And will our testers be convinced by the turbocharged 1.5-litre engine's 138bhp and 220Nm of torque?
