So the Yugo is no more. Do you care? Not one dot, I’m sure. But there are plenty of people round the world, particularly in Eastern Europe, who will. For many, it was the only way they could afford to run an a new, or used, car. The Yugo is probably the last remaining relic […]

I know, there have been endless spy shots of the Porsche Panamera around for ever. But the car is getting closer, and we now have the first Porsche supplied images surfacing.
