Ed speak

Evo

Ferrari Roma • Don’t go thinking the new Roma is a fixed-roof Portofino – this one’s for the drivers

Renault Mégane RS Trophy-R • Shorn of its most expensive options, does this £20k cheaper hardcore Mégane start to make more sense?

Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet • The new 641bhp super-911 has lost its roof, but does this enhance or detract from the Turbo experience?

Mercedes-AMG CLA45 S 4Matic+ Shooting Brake • Want all the talents of AMG’s A45 hatchback but with a touch more practicality? The solution is here

Mountune Focus RS M520 • An upgrade to 513bhp for the already boisterous four-wheel-drive Ford might sound like madness, but the result is compellingly addictive

Lotus to take the fight to Porsche • All-new sports car to rival iconic 911 and set the blueprint for Lotus’s future models

Is this Audi’s Golf GTI beater? • New S3 Sportback promises to be the most driver-focused yet

THE RIVALS

M3 joins the space race • BMW confirms M3 Touring to rival RS4 and C63 wagons

Chris Ward Historic racing driver • From a young age Chris Ward was surrounded by the world of motorsport. Here he reveals how he got into racing cars, via motocross, and his love of historics

THE EVO ENCYCLOPEDIA THIS MONTH Q-R-S • From Q-cars to superminis, Richard Porter clarifies and classifies another batch of motoring terms

DOA:Lotus M90 Elan • Financial issues, the death of the company founder and a change of drivetrain ethos at a Japanese giant all played their part in the demise of this 1980s concept for a rear-driven Elan

Nifty fifty

RICHARD MEADEN • Your life’s richer with a hero, and mate, like Mike in your life

RICHARD PORTER • How do most people choose their next car? The answer is depressingly simple

JETHRO BOVINGDON • The T.50 will be brilliant, but could its Aston Martin rival be a more exciting car?

THE RACER’S EDGE • The new McLaren 620R is essentially a road-going version of the company’s GT4 racer – with extra power. But with its hardcore spec, is it as compelling away from the track as it promises to be on it?

BIG GAME HUNTER • McLaren’s 620R wants a seat at the road racer top table. To earn it, it has to compete with the very best in the class. Bring on Porsche’s 911 GT3 RS…

ROAD RUSH • Ariel’s latest creation aims to blend the Atom’s road and track chutzpah with the Nomad’s off-road ability. So does the 335bhp Nomad R offer the best of both worlds?

DOMINIC FRASER • A passion for photography from an early age saw Dominic Fraser become one of evo’s original photographers and go on to be a leader in his field. Here he shares some of his favourite images and memories from his career so far
