Prices for the 2012 Renault Scenic and Grand Scenic have been announced, with the Scenic from £18,325 and Grand Scenic from £19,725. Despite Renault slashing its model range in the UK, the 2012 Renault Scenic and Grand Scenic are still very much with us. And after a reveal of the facelift for the Scenic last month, Renault [...]

VW Up 5 Door reveal

VW Up 5 Door

The first photos of the VW Up 5 door have been revealed, a few months after the 3-Door Up debuted officially at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The 3-Door VW Up debuted at the Frankfurt Motor Show back in September, but instead of being the radical departure we were expecting, it turned out to be just a replacement [...]

Peel P50 and Peel Trident

The Peel P50 and Trident – the Isle of Man’s contribution to the car world – are now back in production with an electric motor. Top Gear fans will probably remember Jeremy Clarkson taking the Peel P50 – billed as the world’s smallest car ever – for a trolley round London and the BBC (we’ve [...]

Infiniti M35h vs Porsche Panamera Hybrid race tease

Infiniti M35h v Porsche Panamera S Hybrid Tease

The Infiniti M35h Hybrid is billed by Infiniti as the world’s fastest hybrid. And now they’re pitching it against the Porsche Panamera S Hybrid. When the Infiniti M35h Hybrid was revealed at the Paris Motor Show in 2012, we were suitably impressed that Infiniti were happy to trumpet its performance more than its eco-credentials. Instead of crowing about pointless CO2 emissions, [...]

Volkswagen, Dogs & Star Wars – a Super Bowl Ad

VW Dogs Star Wars Super Bowl Advert

Volkswagen is planning a new Star Wars themed advert for the Super Bowl, this time with dogs singing the Star Wars theme. It may not be a big deal for us on this side of the Pond, but adverts in the Super Bowl are a very big deal for car makers in the US. Last [...]

Fisker Karma looks set to cost £100k in the UK

Fisker Karma Price

Despite indications that the Fisker Karma would cost between £70-80k in the UK, it now looks like that will be £100k plus. We have to congratulate Henrik Fisker on getting Fisker Karma to market – it’s an immense achievement. But is the Fisker Karma pricing itself out of the market? We thought that Fisker were planning on [...]

2012 Mercedes A-Class tease video

The 2012 Mercedes A-Class is being teased on video ahead of a Geneva 2012 debut in conjunction with a ‘QR Code’ competition. With Detroit pretty much done and dusted, it’s time for car makers to begin teasing their offerings for Geneva 2012 (which we saw some of even before Detroit). Today it’s the turn of Mercedes with a video tease [...]

Nissan Juke-R race

The Juke with the heart of a GT-R – the Nissan Juke-R – takes on a Ferrari 458, Lamborghini Gallardo and Mercedes SLS AMG in Dubai. We’re not entirely sure how the Nissan Juke-R – the love child of a Juke and a GT-R – ended up in Dubai pitted in a race against a selection of the world’s best [...]

Porsche Cayenne 2nd Gen100,000

The second generation Porsche Cayenne – launched in 2009 – has now reached 100,000 cars produced. They said it would be a failure when the Porsche Cayenne first appeared back in 2002. But nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, the Porsche Cayenne has become the cash cow for Porsche that allows it [...]

Buick Encore video gives us a proper look at the Opel / Vauxhall Mokka

Buick Encore video

The Vauxhall/Opel Mokka may not arrive until Geneva 2012, but we get a good look at what’s on offer in this Buick Encore video. The whole ‘World Car’ phenomenon that’s sprung out of the mire of the financial woes of the US car industry does lead to a few anomalies. Like the Buick Encore being revealed in the [...]
