Fiat has followed up their viral ‘Motherhood’ video for the new 500L with a new version to balance the gender bias – ‘Fatherhood’. We’re not entirely sure that Fiat’s viral hit video advert for the 500L – the ‘Motherhood’ – actually did anything to increase sales of Fiat’s answer to the MINI Countryman, but it did garner plenty of publicity [...]

McLaren P1

Ron Dennis has said that the new McLaren P1 will smash lap records at the Nurburgring and at the Top Gear track at Dunsfold. Perhaps, just perhaps, LaFerrari has taken the crown as the star car at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show from the McLaren P1. But that’s as much about the run-up to Geneva [...]

Aston Martin Rapide S image

Aston Martin is replacing the four-door Rapide with the Rapide S, which gets minor styling tweaks and extra power. The Aston Martin Rapide is a thing of beauty, as is every Aston Martin, but its paucity of power compared to obvious rivals like the Panamera Turbo and Ferrari FF have hurt sales. So Aston has [...]

As part of Aston Martin’s Centenary celebrations in Dubai, an Aston Martin Vanquish has been helicoptered to the top of the Burj Al Arab hotel. So far, the centenary celebrations for Aston Martin have been quite a low-key affair, perhaps with the exception of the predictable Centenary Edition Vanquish, DB9, Rapide and V8 Vantage. There’s no more extra power on [...]
