What a ride: I can’t seem to get out of McLaren’s last V8 supercar
Talk about going out with a bang. McLaren’s final V8 is a 331km/h heartstarter that makes a hell of a lot of noise but … where’s the door handle?

I admit that BMW’s X5 xDrive50e M Sport is technically brilliant. But like many modern cars, it leaves me cold.
Why are modern cars always in a flap about something? I started up this Porsche Cayenne S and was instantly met with a barrage of bongs, beeps and flashing warning lights.
When naturalist Chris Packham said something annoying on TV, I decided to annoy him back by buying a Range Rover with a V8 that produces more carbon dioxide than India.
This modified Isuzu D-Max is a pick-up truck on steroids, with a tent on the roof and kitchen in the back. Who needs something like this? Perhaps only you Australians.
Why would Ferrari, maker of sports cars and supercars, decide to make an SUV? Isn’t it a bit like Jimmy Choo producing wellies? Who cares. The result is brilliant.
The Sterrato is not as fast as the normal version. It won’t corner as quickly either, or stop as well. But what it will do, we’re told, is a huge power slide on a gravel track.
With the MC20 Cielo, Maserati has made something unique. Supercars are quite often annoying, but this one I like.
Sure, you can plug the $400,000 hybrid into the mains, but the electric motor is there only to add another 150kW to the twin-turbo V8 petrol engine.
This Porsche Cayenne V8 will set you back just $5800. It’s a lot of car for a very small amount of money. What’s the catch?
