Pagani Zonda 7.3 C12 S Review by Harry Metcalfe
Harry Metcalfe is the founder of EVO magazine, and one thing we like about him is the fact that he really takes his time when doing a review.
We could listen to Harry for days, and this latest video which involves the Pagani Zonda 7.3 C12 S is just another example of how passionate the man is when it comes to supercars. This particular Zonda 7.3 C12 S seen in the two-part footage is actually owned by Harry, so his impressions on this car are most likely the most accurate you will ever get considering he drove the C12 S for four years now.

One model that has proved to be particularly popular among reviewers is the Ford Fiesta Titanium 1.6 Ti-VCT Duratec, which seems to be yet another flag-bearer of the user-friendly American marque.
The ever-irrepressible Guardian columnist Sam Wollaston – who gives excellent colour commentaries regarding the newest models available across the UK – was quick to give his opinion of the Fiesta, despite noting that the model itself has long been a bog-standard go-to for individuals and families alike.
Nissan Juke R vs Lamborghini Gallardo, Ferrari 458 and Mercedes SLS AMG
