This week we’ve driven a super-fast Fiat 500, pitted the Audi RS7 against Porsche’s Panamera GTS and listed our favourite £1million cars.

Also on evo.co.uk, Colin Goodwin asks whether Honda should have taken on the challenge of F1 again.

Audi RS7 v Porsche Panamera GTS - which is best? 

Audi RS7 & Porsche Panamera GTS

German, four-wheel drive and well over 400bhp, these two cars are giants in their class. But which is better?
