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 […]
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 […]
Tata says hello with the Tata Nano Europa
Tata has had a pretty torrid time of late, what with problems in India and the decimation of the world car markets, which has badly affected sales of its recently acquired Land Rover and Jaguar marques. But as we reported last week, they have just landed a huge contract to supply Jaguars and Land Rovers […]
Lagonda are back – Aston Martin revives the Lagonda Marque
Lagonda has a long history. Founded in 1899 and building its first car 10 years later, which makes 2009 Lagonda’s 100th birthday. A fitting time, perhaps, for a revival. Best described as a maker of high-performance luxury cars in the first half of the 20th century, inspired by the involvement in the company of W.O. […]
Koenigsegg Quant – it’s an Electric Car!
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again. Christian Von Koenigsegg is as mad as a hatter. But good mad, not bad mad. He has outrageous ideas, but has the nous to see them through. And the Koenigsegg Quant is some idea. But actually, this isn’t all Christian’s idea. The project stems from a […]
Ferrari 599XX revealed
We mentioned the other day when we were talking about the handling pack for the Ferrari 599 (the HTGE Pack) that Ferrari was also bringing a new car to Geneva – the Ferrari 599XX. We speculated that the 599XX would be in the mould of the FXX series – a track-only development car for uber-rich […]
Maserati GrandTurismo S Auto Geneva unveil
We brought news on the Auto version of the GrandTurismo S last week, but with the actual unveil happening today at the Geneva Motor Show, we thought we’d refresh the information, and add a few show pics and a video! The Maserati Grand Turismo S is a very under rated car. It has oodles of […]
