Peter grew up in a house in Western Sydney where automotive passion extended to white Sigmas and Magnas. At school he discovered "those" magazines that weren't to be found in the house. Magazines that offered him the chance to sit in the driver's seat of cars he’d never even heard of let alone seen. His path to rebellion was set - he would love cars, know cars and want to write about cars, much to his family’s disgust. They wanted him to be a teacher. He bought a series of terrible cars and lusted after Ford Escort Cosworths, the Alfa Romeo 164 Q and occasionally kicked himself for selling his 1977 Alfa GTV. From 1.0-litre three cylinders to roaring V12s, Peter has driven them all and can't wait to tell you all about it.

Audi Q7 3.0TDI 200 2016 review

By Peter Anderson · 16 Feb 2016

Audi's new Q7 is something of a watershed moment in the SUV invasion – the second generation is not only better-looking, it's smaller looking. Out has gone the big, bluff get-out-of-my-way bling of the old car and in has come a chiselled, more restrained machine. It's also a handy 325kg lighter. There hasn't been

Jaguar F-Type 2016 review

By Peter Anderson · 15 Feb 2016

Jaguar is a company that probably shouldn't still be around. For almost four decades, the leaping cat traded on the long-faded glories of the E-Type and Mk II, the marque's styling becoming progressively more timid under Ford's stewardship when Jaguar was part of the ill-fated Premier Automotive Group. When Indian

Audi TT S Line 2016 review

By Peter Anderson · 20 Jan 2016

Audi TT's third generation is chiseled, refined and deeply, deeply pretty. The second generation didn't have a lot wrong with it, but it wasn't an individual design and the detailing kind of got lost and the base models weren't that interesting to drive. This new one changes all that and brings us the sporty coupe on
