ROAD TESTS
• Ford Cougar
It's the Puma's big brother and it's got its claws out for the 406 Coupe
• Mazda MX-5 v MGF WC v BMW Z3 1.9
Everyone loves the MX-5, but other manufacturers haven't been idle since the original was launched. New MX-5 faces its toughest challenge yet
• Supercharged Volkswagen Golf VR6
No ordinary Golf this. Nik Saran Racing has attached a Vortech supercharger to the wholesome 2.8-litre VR6. Meet the Mad Kompressor
• Supersaloons Supertest
Lotus Carlton, Ford Sierra Sapphire Cosworth, Mercedes-Benz 190 Evo II, AMG Merc E55, BMW M5 - all the supersaloon icons locked together in battle. Blimey
FEATURES
• PC R.I.P
And now the end is near. and so we face the final curtain We've had great times over the last 15 years, and here are some of them
• Eating dust on the Tour de Corse
Everyone told us that foreign rally spectators are completely mad. but we couldn't resist finding out for ourselves in a warm foreign clime
• Buying a TVR S
Don't expect it to be cheap but do expect to have fun
• Mad for the Manx
The Manx is a major international rally. Dicky and Danny are amateur drivers. Mix the two things together and stand well back from the corner

• Motorsport news
Is the GTI series heading for the barriers? Plus, John Barker races a Radical, TVR tests the Speed 12, and a diesel Golf goes well on the Manx
• Long term tests
It‘s end of the mad for Performance Car so it's time to wave goodbye to our long term fleet. Choke back the tears - we are
• Directory
It's a performance bible, so remember to keep it by your bedside
• Odds & Sods
Turbocharge a Citroen CX - now there's an odd idea
• Portfolio
So many stunning used cars, so little space to show them off
• Shortlist
The prices come from the manufacturers, the opinions come from the acid tongue of Performance Car. You'll need bath before you buy
• Yesterday's Heroes
Gone but not forgotten - a bit like us really
• Reader's Special
If you're modifying a BMW M3 you need to be subtle about it. Like this
• Bluffer's Guide to Supercars
