Car reviews

A vehicle that perhaps would not look out of place in Wacky Races, the Ram SRT-10 is a Frankenstein's monster - part commercial vehicle, part people carrier, part supercar. The commercial vehicle aspect is by virtue of its load bay that will carry close to half a tonne. The people carrier function is served by the 2x3 seating arrangement in its four-door cab. And the supercar element comes courtesy of the 8.3-litre V10 engine developing 500bhp and 525lb-ft - which also powers the Dodge Viper (called Dodge SRT-10 in the UK). Somehow the asking price of nearly £45,000 seems appropriate for a vehicle with the straight-line performance of a BMW M3. Brace yourself for the fuel bill though.
