Chris Harris interrupts the bad news from Volkswagen to take for a spin in the updated and softer Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG. Don’t worry, that’s softer in a good way, as he explains. You lot obviously don’t watch Harris’ motor show videos enough so he has spliced his A45 review in among his walk around the […]
The wraps have finally come off the Mercedes-AMG C63 Coupé and here it is! The overall shape of the C Class Coupé is proving to be a bit of an oddity here at AUSmotive HQ. From most angles the shape looks very good. But from the three-quarter rear it just looks wrong—a bit too much […]

AUSmotive is about to go into a hiatus of some sort while I head on an overseas holiday for the next five weeks or so.

Lewis Hamilton has made a perfect start to his world championship title defence with a seemingly easy win at Albert Park yesterday. It was a funny week for Formula 1, with the Giedo van der Garde v Sauber saga dominating headlines, the return and then no show of Manor, Valtteri Bottas’ injury withdrawal and the […]
