Matt Drayton would buy this car again because: "The Audi S3 has been my daily driver for three years now and has been absolutely faultless.

2013 Kia Cerato Si owner reviewCarExpert.com.au Jude T purchased this Kia Cerato used for $12,999 (including all on-road costs) in 2019. Jude T wouldn't buy this car again because: "Would like something more economical and bit more powerful like the Mazda 3 SP25 models. Kia has come a long way but still not as premium as other rivals such as the VW Golf or even the Mazda 3. The long warranty Kia offers is very attractive."3 years ago
2011 Volvo XC90 R-Design owner reviewCarExpert.com.au Cameron McAlister purchased this Volvo XC90 used for $23,000 (including all on-road costs) in 2021. Cameron McAlister would buy this car again because: "I would 100 per cent buy it again, but perhaps with a different engine. My XC90 was equipped with the transverse mounted 3.2 inline-six. Although a great engine in itself, with a great exhaust note, even for a family SUV. The sheer weight it has to carry around means there's a lot more to be desired, especially lower down in the rev range. So, if I were to buy another one. I'd choose the 2.4-litre five-cylinder diesel that also came with the XC90."3 years ago

Owner review of the week wins $100Scott Collie Congratulations to David Festa, who wins a $100 fuel card for writing his 2022 Subaru BRZ S owner review. 3 years ago
2022 Subaru BRZ S owner reviewCarExpert.com.au David Festa purchased this Subaru BRZ new with additional options for $47,245 (including all on-road costs). David Festa would buy this car again because: "I would buy again because the days of dedicated sports coupes with rear-wheel drive, naturally-aspirated engines, and manual gearboxes are limited and I want to enjoy them while I can. It is the anti SUV. Before the turn of the millennium virtually every automotive manufacturer had an affordable sports coupe. Toyota Celica and MR2, Nissan 200SX, Honda Integra and Prelude, Mazda RX7, Alfa GTV, Fiat Coupe are just a few that come to mind. Even Holden had the Calibra. Ferrari and Lamborghini were the poster cars but an affordable sports coupes was what I really aspired to. And as old fashioned as the layout is, the BRZ is the best 1990s sports coupe you can buy today. I like a hot hatch as much as the next person but I love that this car is designed from the ground up for driving enjoyment and is not just a modified shopping trolley. I previously owned a base model 2015 GT86 and after waiting more than a year from the first reveal I found the experience of seeing the new BRZ in person a bit surreal. Years ago I used to sleep in the Doctor’s on call room in the Nurse’s quarters of the old Preston & Northcote Community Hospital (PANCH) in Melbourne. The same building is now an up market hotel and it feels bizarre walking through the place. The walls, foyer and swimming pool are all in the same place but barely recognisable. Everything is the same only better. I have the same experience with the BRZ. You can see the same basic shape of the old car but everything has been updated. The wider rear track makes the haunches more curvaceous, all the design details are more cohesive and the aero slashes on the side are now functional. All the hard points are the same but absolutely everything has been improved. Kudos to Subaru for making so many changes and all of them positive. Often when a car is updated there are inevitably some changes for the worse, just look at the cost cutting in the new Golf GTI interior or their horrendous new user interface. I loved the old BRZ and I love the new BRZ even more. But if, for whatever reason, you did not like the previous model then you may not like this one either. There have been multiple incremental improvements rather than any radical changes and in a lot of ways it remains substantially the same car. Only much, much better. To me it feels more premium and well made, like an expensive power tool, but in no way luxurious or opulent. A BMW or Porsche this is not. "3 years ago
