Citroen has revealed the next instalment in the DS range – the Citroen DS4 – a Golf-sized crossover which will debut at Paris. We’ve been trailing the arrival of the next in the line of Citroen’s upmarket DS range – the Citroen DS4 – for more than a year. And Citroen showed us how close […]

Belgian Grand Prix (2010) RESULT
Off to Spa for the first Grand Prix after the summer break. Red Bull get pole once again, but McLaren – who need a result – are in second place with Hamilton. Did it rain? Spa is a proper Grand Prix Circuit. It’s not a huge circuit in the way the Nurburgring was, but it’s […]
Stig sacked
The Mirror are reporting that Ben Collins has been sacked as the Stig after revealing his identity in an autobiography. Yes, we should probably have made the headline ‘Some say he’s been sacked…’ or ‘All we know is, he’s looking for a new job’. But it wouldn’t change the fact that the Stig has been sacked. […]
Lamborghini Jota spotted
We have a spy shot of the upcoming Lamborghini Jota, snapped out playing on the German Autobahn. The last news we had on the Lamborghini Jota – Lambo’s replacement for the now quite ancient Murcielago – was a pointless tease for the Jota sent to us in July by Lamborghini with a photo of a Lamborghini bonnet […]
BMW 1 Series M Coupe Video tease
BMW has sent us a second teaser video of the BMW 1 Series M Coupe. Not much detail, just a look at the alloys, shape and exhaust pipes. There was endless speculation about an ‘M’ version of the BMW 1 Series. No one listens to BMW on things like this because they always protest that […]
Electric car world speed record – 307mph
A team from Ohio State University has taken their battery-powered electric car – Buckeye Bullet – to a new world record of 307mph on the Bonneville Salt Flats. Perhaps we should change our minds. We’ve always made it clear that we believe the only sensible use for an electric car – certainly a BEV (battery electric vehicle) – is […]
Ferrari 458 Italia recall?
With the Ferrari 458 Italias seemingly spontaneously combusting on all continents, it’s being reported Ferrari are recalling the 458 to fix a problem which could cause the fires. Update 1/9/2010: It took Ferrari a while to catch up with our story – well, a couple of days – but they got there. Ferrari say the […]
Citroen DS5 – First video tease?
Citroen has revealed a teaser video for a new concept at the Paris Motor Show in October. They don’t say what it is, but our money’s on the Citroen DS5 Concept. Despite our original scepticism (grumpy old man syndrome) that Citroen were intent on wrecking their history by cashing in on the DS tag – and badge engineering prosaic product […]
Mazda RX-8 – Just a few left
Mazda tell us that there are less than 100 RHD Mazda RX-8s left available after the impending Euro 5 emission regs killed off production of the wankel-engined sports car. In an email that looked suspiciously like a warning from QVC that their latest pitched offering really is being gobbled up quickly, and you’ll have to pick up the phone […]
Range Rover Evoque: ‘Spy’ shots in London
We didn’t think more spy shots of the Range Rover Evoque were newsworthy. But a closer look shows two different back end treatments. QI. I know, why on earth do we need ‘Spy’ shots of the Range Rover Evoque when we saw a completely undisguised Evoque – and eventually an equally undisguised Victoria Beckham – […]
