Here are out first impressions of the new Citroen Basalt.

Mahindra Scorpio 2014 review: New Wine, Old Bottle

By Charles Pennefather30 Sep 2014

After a few years of listening to manufacturers telling us how their new car really is new when all they’ve done is reskin it or add features, one tends to get jaded. So when Mahindra said that they’ve got an all-new Scorpio out and it even looks the same as the old one, I didn’t expect much. Yes, they said that they retained only the doors and the roof from the older model, but really, how much better could it be?
