Lexus have been playing with their Supercar – the Lexus LF-A – for at least four years now. They’ve had various mules floating around for years and have even been out playing on the track and at the Nurburgring. But still, four years from when the LF-A first surfaced at the Detroit Motor Show in […]
Maff Muron Porsche Cayenne
Even though I drive a Porsche Cayenne as my daily drive, I would be the first to admit that it’s not the prettiest car in the world. Despite being quite possibly the best all-round car on the road, it doesn’t win any beauty contests. So why then are car tuners around the world hell-bent on […]
New Mazda 3 hits the UK
To be entirely accurate, the New Mazda3 actually turns up in UK showrooms on the 18th May, but by the time you’ve read this, and got round to going and looking, I’m sure it will be there for you to view! So is it a big deal, the New Mazda3? Well, in many ways it […]
Ford KA going to the U.S.?
Ford has done well to keep its head above water when all around are drowning (to paraphrase Kipling – Rudyard, not Mr!). It has managed to survive without going cap in hand to the US government, and this has reflected well on Ford, who are now held in far greater esteem by US car buyers […]

DIY Car Repairs in London
When I was just a lad, weekends were usually taken up with keeping my car on the road. Cars in the ’70s were a full time job – none of this ‘reliability’ stuff we have now. Hardly a week went by that I wasn’t covered in oil from head to foot (I know, I was […]
Honda Insight top selling car in Japan
You’ve got to hand it to Honda. They have worked really hard to make the Honda Insight an appealing car, both on specification and, more importantly, on cost. And it seems to be working for them. As we reported at the end of last month, the Honda Insight was the best selling Hybrid in the […]
Hyundai i10 ES and i30 ES announced
Hyundai’s range of cars has certainly come a long way in the last few years, due to big improvements in the design and quality of their cars, and of course some good marketing. And in times as tough as these people really are sitting up and taking notice of ‘Budget’ cars in a way not […]
Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV – New Photos
As we’ve said countless times before, the latest and fastest Lamborghini – the Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 Super Veloce – looked like it would be the ‘Poster Car’ for this generation, just like every teenage boy had a poster on their bedroom wall of the Lamborghini Countach (together with the blonde ‘Tennis Girl’ scratching her bum!) […]
Button wins in Barcelona – another Brawn 1-2
Brawn’s fairytale season continues, with Jenson Button taking the win in Barcelona, with team mate Rubens Barrichello in second place. Button lost first place to team mate Barrichello off the line but, after a safety car on the first lap, strategy genius Ross Brawn moved Button on to a two-stop strategy, which proved a master […]
