The Graham Hill review of a new car focuses on the new Mr T, of A Team fame, of the car world. No we’re not talking about a car full of bling or a muscle bound design, we’re talking Mohican style. The new Ford, Focus based, Kuga seems to have taken its styling from Mr T’s head as it has what looks like a Mohican style sunroof running from front to back and of course looking dopey. The style might suit Mr T but not a car. The new lines, like many new designs, look more like the designs film makers Read more »

The Graham Hill review of the week is on two cars following the re-birth of Lotus, one of my favourite car makers of all time.

I’m told that every panel of the car is new but the door mirrors are from the Musanne. Great! OK when you get up close you can see that there are changes but they have kept the overall look very Read more »

Graham Hill’s in depth review of a car takes me back a little to probably my most favourite car to drive. No it wasn’t my 7 Series BMW, which I actually loved or any of the prestige and exotica cars that I have driven over many years of being in this business. Strangely it was back in the early 80’s when I drove a Renault 25 V6i. It was gorgeous, at the time it looked great, it drove wonderfully with a cabin that felt a cross Read more »
