Reviews

Need for Speed: Nitro

Need for Speed: Nitro gets off to a fast start, but lacks enough variety to make it into the winner's circle.
Pioneer AVIC-F10BT

Pioneer's top-of-the-range in-dash navigation unit, the F10BT features a 7-inch touchscreen, movie playback including DivX, Bluetooth hands-free, USB connectivity and iPod support, as well as sat nav with text-to-speech, 3D view and traffic messaging.

Best FM transmitters for the car

Not all iPod FM transmitters are created equal — some have dodgy cradles that fling your iPod around the cabin, others roll over at the first sign of interference. We pick three of the best, so you have your tunes everywhere you drive.
Tech toys for speed junkies

Not everyone can go touring in a Bugatti or racing in a Ferrari. But that's half the allure — you want it but you can't have it. Well, that's not entirely true.
