IS YOUR 4X4 ILLEGAL?

We all want a unique vehicle, which makes sense as we all do different things with them. Modifying four-wheel drives is nothing new, and in-fact the off-road aftermarket industry is booming in Australia. But don’t for a minute think that…

The Land Rovers of James Bond

While Bond is synonymous with Aston Martin, there is also a solid history with the Land Rover, which is about to get an even bigger boost with the forthcoming Spectre film, the 24th bond adventure. The film will include a…

WILL THE FORD EVEREST BE THE NEW SUV TO BEAT?

Following up on the success of the current Ranger, Ford Australia has excitedly announced that this lucky country will be receiving an off-road oriented four-door wagon. Known as the Everest, the soon to launch mid-sized SUV from Ford will share…

UNSEALED 4X4 REVIEW: 2014 SUZUKI JIMNY

Most modern four-wheel drives are actually quite terrible at being a four-wheel drive. They’re big, luxurious, expensive and you most certainly wouldn’t call them economical. Which is funny, because the four-wheel drive was invented as a utility tool; the vehiclular…

THE NISSAN PATROL Y62 NEEDS A TURBO-DIESEL ENGINE

American diesel legend Cummins is partnering up with Nissan to provide the manufacturer with a 5.0-litre V8 turbo-diesel for the next generation of the Nissan Titan. If rumours are correct, Nissan will be offering this forthcoming vehicle to the Australian…
