Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 (2006) review Price: £197,460 25 July 2006 by Chris Chilton Looks like a Murcielago to me, what's this LP640 business all about? The supercar competition has caught up - and in some cases overtaken - the Italian bruiser in the five years since its launch.

Porsche Cayman S (2006) review Price: £44,250 24 July 2006 by Chris Chilton Ahh, the Porsche Boxster coupe. Yes, it's been a long time coming but I think Porsche would rather you didn't mention the B word if you don't mind - just in case people start questioning why the...

Volvo C70 T5 SE Lux (2006) review Price: £33,250 24 July 2006 by Angus Fitton Ah, a convertible. One for the hairdressers or a car that's hair-raising to drive?

Porsche Cayenne Turbo S (2006) review Price: £81,565 24 July 2006 by Georg Kacher The Porsche Cayenne Turbo, doyen of the noveau riche and Premiership footballers. What's new about this?

Seat Leon FR (2006) review Price: £17,250 23 July 2006 by Angus Fitton I'm confused, does the FR replace the old Leon flagship, the Cupra? Nope, that's still to come.

Jaguar XK8 Coupe (2006) review Price: £60,097 21 July 2006 by Chris Chilton Jag XK? Looks like a re-badged Aston DB9 to me! You're excused.

BMW Z4 M Roadster (2006) review Price: £43,795 20 July 2006 by Chris Chilton So, Munich's TVR is back? That's right, but this one's a bit more sophisticated than the Z3-based version from the late 1990s. It's got the current M3's multi-award-winning straight six and no trace...
