We’re hearing that 2011 production for the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 is already sold. But that could mean good news for Gallardo buyers?

Bristol Cars goes Bust
Bristol Cars has gone in to administration. Administrators hope to find a buyer to take on the Bristol factory and Kensington showroom. I know, you didn’t even know they still existed. They do, but for how much longer is anyone’s guess as Bristol Cars calls in the administrators. Which is a real shame; a proper, eccentric British […]
Volvo V60 Plug-in Diesel Hybrid: Geneva 2011 catch-up
Volvo has revealed their diesel plug-in hybrid at Geneva – the Volvo V60 Diesel Plug-in Hybrid – offering a decent drive and good economy We’re probably going to be playing catch-up for the next few days on stuff we didn’t manage to cover on the press days at Geneva. And this – the Volvo […]
2012 BMW M5: The M5 tease begins
BMW are teasing the 2012 BMW M5, which means its launch is close and will probably be at Shanghai in April. It’s over a year since BMW officially revealed the latest 5-Series, and yet we still don’t have the halo of the range – the BMW M5. But that’s about to change. As we reported […]
Toyota FT-86 II: Now Toyota mean it. Really
Toyota have brought their compact sports car project to Geneva in an updated version – the Toyota FT-86 II, which may hit the road by 2012. Toyota has been threatening to produce an affordable sports car for quite a while. And when we first saw the Toyota FT-86 Concept at the end of 2009 (and […]

Bentley Supersports ISR: Cool in Arctica White in Geneva
A quick recap on the Bentley Continental Supersorts Ice Speed Record Convertible Limited Edition, and a live photo from Geneva. It’s not every day you take a world speed record and give it a good spanking. But that’s what Bentley recently did on ice in Finland in – of all things – a Bentley Supersports […]
Ford B-Max: A grown up Fusion
Ford’s replacement for the Fusion – the Ford B-Max – looks to be a properly grown-up compact MPV. Should hit showrooms later this year. The latest Ford Fiesta is one of our favourite small cars. Probably because it doesn’t feel like a small car, more like a down-sized Focus. Which makes it very good. Very […]
Jaguar B99 by Bertone: Still looks like Jaguar past to us
Bertone has revealed the B99 Concept at Geneva, their take on a future New Small Jaguar to take on the BMW 3 Series. With Jaguar looking more than seriously at a New Small Jaguar to take the BMW 3 Series on at its own game, it seems almost certain Jaguar’s had a part to play […]
