We did a piece yesterday on the Audi TT-RS teaser images released by Audi ahead of the TT-RS launch at Geneva in March. But now we’ve got some more pictures, even though they are not official Audi releases (excuse the less than normal quality). It would make much more sense for car makers to stop […]
Saab on the road to independence
You’ve got to feel for Scandinavian car makers Saab and Volvo. Both swallowed up by big US car makers, and both now being abandoned in a vulnerable position after years of integrating their once independent products in to their parents infrastructure, they must wake up every day wondering if this is the day it all […]
A glimpse of the Audi TT RS
Yes, yet another in the endless teaser series that is an even bigger factor before Geneva next month than it ever seems to have been before. This time Audi is playing with artful shots of the Audi TT RS. But actually, this wasn’t planned yet, but after the pictures leaked out (the joys of the […]
Just how bad are things at MINI?
At first glance, the story we ran the other day about job losses at MINI was shocking. After all, if the makers of the UK’s lowest depreciating car are having to cut production and lay off staff, then surely the less efficient car makers, with less desirable products, must be facing oblivion. But that got […]
Porsche Cayenne Hybrid – proper details emerge
It’s a real sign of the times that Porsche is pushing ahead with Hybrid and diesels. Unthinkable just a few years ago, but the diesel Cayenne is already here, and now proper details are emerging on the Hybrid version. As you would expect with Porsche, their Hybrid is not exactly going to be a slouch. […]
Rolls Royce EX200 (RR4 / Ghost) breaks cover early
Well, this was supposed to be embargoed until tomorrow, but if the Daily Telegraph are prepared to jump the gun, I suppose we may as well jump on their coach and run it as well! After more spy shots of the Rolls Royce RR4 than I care to remember, and teaser images and trickles of […]
Alfa Romeo MiTo GTA – some proper details
I know, we do keep moaning about car makers playing tease in the run-up to a car launch. And Alfa has been playing the game recently on the MiTo GTA, releasing a couple of pointless shots of the upcoming MiTo GTA (another Geneva launch). So pointless were they that we didn’t bother with them, but […]
Lamborghini Murcielago LP650-4 Roadster
Yes, we’re coming to the end of the life of the Murcielago, which if you didn’t know it already you can tell it’s near from the glut (by Lamborghini standards) of new models. We brought news of the Murcielago LP670-4 SV a few days ago, and now we hear, from Autoblog in the Netherlands, that […]
Skoda Fabia Scout image and details
You’d never guess we’re coming up to a major Euro Motor Show, would you?! Skoda has released details and pictures of the new Skoda Fabia Scout to an expectant public (!) today. But it’s hard to get too excited. On the face of it you expect this to be a rufty-tufy estate, in the mould […]
Hyundai HED-6 proper images surface
After yet more teasing last week on the Hyundai HED-6 concept, Hyundai has done the decent thing and released an actual image. Yippee! I shouldn’t complain really, as all these trickles of information do give us something to write about on a quiet day, but I do in some ways long for the days when […]
