Car of the Year 2004 - The wait is over, the biggest and best test of the year is here. There were laughs, there were tears, there were a few arguments, and at the end of it all there was a decision. Lightweights took on heavyweights, siblings battled with siblings, and the hot hatches played merry hell with everyone. Who needs panto with these kind of shenanigans?

Long Term Tests - A fond last look at the Clio V6 (sniff) before turning to greet a new 997 (hoorah) and a Murcielago (yippee!).

Allan Pattison becomes Alan Partridge, and Chee-Chiu Lee becomes Bruce Lee as he takes on the Caterham - and survives
