2022 Mercedes-Benz CLS300d 4Matic Automatic C257

It doesn’t seem that long ago that we were testing the then new third-generation CLS-Class, but that was 2018, and just over three years on, it’s time for the mid-life update to arrive.

1200bhp 2.8-litre VR6 engined Volkswagen Golf Mk2

A project designed by Kyza and realised by JP Performance — we knew there’d be a buzz. Throw in some custom Rotiform rolling stock and an unveiling at Players Classic and the hype was off the scale. This Radical Mk2 is surely the collab drop of the season

2.0 ABF engined with Yamaha R1 Bike Carbs 1983 Volkswagen Golf Mk1
