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, […]
Pagani Zonda F Cinque – er, no it’s not!
Pagani has been threatening to build the Zonda R – a race track only car – for a very long time. Only five were scheduled to be built and all are destined for the Far East. But despite finally getting round to officially unveiling the Zonda R last month, it is probably going to be […]
Infiniti Essence Concept bows in at Geneva
Infiniti are about to launch in Europe (not the best of times to be launching a range-topping bunch of cars, we must say) so to grab a few headlines they have brought their Essence Concept to Geneva. The Infiniti Essence Concept is a show-pleaser, designed to grab a few headlines and give Nissan (makers of […]
Porsche Cayenne hits 250,000 sales
“Absolute sacrilege”, they cried, when Porsche announced it was to make an SUV. “Too ugly to drive”, said Clarkson, despite his obvious incredulity at its abilities. Yet despite its inauspicious start in life, the Porsche Cayenne has gone on to be a huge success for Porsche, and the 250,000th Porsche Cayenne has just rolled off […]
Renault Megane RenaultSport (RS) – Official
The Renault Megane RenaultSport has officially landed at Geneva, and is pretty much what we brought you a few weeks ago when Renault played ‘Tease’ with a moody silhouette of the Megane RenaultSport. But it’s an excuse for a good gallery of photos, and confirmation of what’s on offer. With MINI offering the lates version […]
Gumpert Apollo Speed lands at Geneva
I have to admit, the Gumpert Apollo is not exactly the most subtle of cars. Or the prettiest. But it probably explodes more ferociously (or at least it feels more ferocious) than just about anything on the road. But just in case the standard Gumpert Apollo isn’t mad enough for you, Gumpert also offers the […]
Lotus Evora UK Prices revealed at Geneva
In many ways the Geneva Motor Show is a proper launch for the Lotus Evora. Yes, the car has been shown, and Lotus in London actually had an Evora in their showroom in January for a while. But the Evora wasn’t ready to roll at that point, but now its is. And anyway, Lotus are […]
Spyker stretches the C8 Laviolette to make the Spyker C8 Aileron
Spyker has had a heap of problems over the years, not remotely connected to the current ‘Car-Woes’. It has basically struggled to finance what it has been doing. A disastrous flirtation with F1 cost it dear, and it simply struggled to function and get cars out. But those problems faded last year when Spyker got […]
