This week’s issue of Auto Express

This week’s issue – out on 27 February 2013 – has all the details on the all-new Volkswagen Golf GTI, the £866,000 McLaren P1 hypercar and Volvo’s new hi-tech XC90 SUV. We also take a look at the best 13-plate deals, the 314mpg VW XL1 and fresh-faced Nissan Leaf.

In drives we’ve been behind the wheel of the brand-new Toyota RAV4, efficient Fiat 500L TwinAir and entry-level Porsche Cayman, as well as taking a look at the special edition Vauxhall Corsa Black, VW's Polo BlueGT and the facelifted Mercedes E-Class Estate.

Elsewhere, our road test team has got its hands on the stunning Mercedes CLS Shooting Brake, and has pitted it against the superb BMW 5 Series Estate and twin-turbo Audi A7. We've also got the definitive verdict on how the Ford B-MAX stacks up against Citroen's new-look C3 Picasso.

Plus, there’s a used buyer’s guide for the Audi A6, as well as all the latest product reviews, long-term reports and letters, sport and Watchdog.
