Jaguar has denied planning to put the 2.2 litre diesel engine from the Freelander in to the Jaguar XF. But are they being a bit ‘Economical with the actualité?’ Back in April – and not for the first time – rumours began to circulate that Jaguar were planning on dropping the 2.2 litre diesel used […]
BMW 1-Series to become BMW 2-Series?
BMW has trademarked a series of 2-Series designations in the States, leading to speculation we may see the 1-Series promoted to 2-Series and a FWD 1-Series instead.

Renault has released prices for the 2011 Laguna Hatch and Estate, with prices starting at £17,795 for the entry-level 2.0-litre petrol in Expression trim We guess it’s easier to get your act together as a car maker to price a facelifted car than an all new car.

Citroen DS: Citroen Survolt to become Citroen DS Roadster?
Citroen are planning on turning the Citroen Survolt Concept in to a production Citroen DS Roadster, launching a DS3 Convertible and Limited Edition DS3s.
