Land Rover’s offerings are not, on the whole, the most economical or lowest emitting cars on the planet. So as with every other premium car maker, Land Rover is looking for ways to introduce a cheaper, cleaner and more economical car without damaging its brand image. The Land Rover LRX Concept, which was first revealed […]
Alfa Romeo MiTo – now it’s the video
Yes, we’ve banged on quite a bit about the Alfa Romeo MiTo GTA, fed by a constant trickle of information about the car from Alfa Romeo. But only a concept? Not a chance! Alfa Romeo has just released a video of the MiTo GTA strutting its stuff, and if this is just a concept I’ll […]
A Pagani Zonda R For Sale – Track not included!
The Pagani Zonda R is a rare, track-only beast. But one owner has decided to swap in his Zonda R for a Zonda Cinque. As we reported recently, Pagani has finally got round to officially launching the Pagani Zonda R, the ultimate performance Zonda (not that there’s anything wrong with the performance on the Zonda […]
Chevrolet Cruze lands in the UK
GM is having its problems, as we’ve chronicled almost endlessly, but they are pushing ahead with the launch of their Focus-sized offering, the Chevrolet Cruse, around the world. So far it has been launched in the Far East and Australia, and now we’re getting it in the UK from the summer. But oddly, it’s not […]
Ford Fiesta SportVan – more car than van
Commercial vehicles is not exactly our stock in trade. We tend not to give you news and info on the latest commercial releases from the like of LDV or Renault, mainly because our readers aren’t really that interested (but if we’re wrong, tell us and we will!). But this is one van we will make […]
Volvo C70 Ice White Limited Edition
Well, you can tell Geneva’s delivered pretty much all it’s going to deliver when a ‘Limited Edition’ Volvo C70 is newsworthy! That’s a bit unfair, especially as it is ‘News’, but you get a bit spoiled when there’s lots of real new stuff going on. But anyway, the Volvo C70 Ice White is based on […]
Aston Martin and Mercedes tie-up over Lagonda
Probably the biggest surprise of the Geneva Motor Show was the arrival of the Lagonda Concept. Although the revival of the Lagonda Marque had been much speculated upon, particularly with Lagonda celebrating its 100 year car making anniversary this year (an all the marketing opportunities that offers) no one had seen a super-luxo SUV on […]
Audi TT RS – Geneva Update
Another in the ‘We must catch up with Geneva’ series. This time the Audi TT RS. We have written quite a bit about Audi’s latest hot TT RS, some of it speculative, some of it factual. But it makes sense with such an interesting car to have a quick recap and confirm the stats – […]
Skoda launches the Yeti – (N)ice to see you!
Well, it is Saturday, and It’s been a long week (we were writing news stories at 3am on Tuesday, for goodness sake!) so excuse the obvious puns. It’s a bit of Geneva catch-up weekend, making sure we’ve covered all the Geneva launches worth mentioning. And although we brought news on the Yeti pre-Geneva, as expected […]
Official: Honda F1 becomes Brawn GP
Well, it’s good to see they survived! After reporting last week that the Honda F1 team was going to be the subject of a management buyout, thus securing the team and its employees, an official announcement has now been made and we can confirm that Ross Brawn has taken control of the Honda F1 Team, […]
