Chrysler 300C – 2010 UK models
Chrysler has revamped the model range of the 300C in the UK for 2010, offering three diesel models plus the v8 SRT-8. If things move on as we expect, we could see a new Chrysler 300C before long. But in the meantime Chrysler have had a fiddle with the 300C for the UK market in 2010. […]
Victor Muller on Spyker’s plans for Saab
Victor Muller – CEO of Spyker – is still very bullish about the prospects of Spyker acquiring Saab from GM.

Hyundai Veloster – the 2011 Hyundai Coupe – spied
We have spy shots of the Hyundai Veloster – the 2011 replacement for the Hyundai Coupe – caught out testing. The Hyundai Coupe has always fought well above its weight. It was the first sign from Hyundai that they could take on the best from Japan and come out fighting. But the Hyundai Coupe is […]
Ford Kuga to be new Ford Escape in US?
Ford dealers in the US are complaining that dropping the Ford Escape name in favour of Ford Kuga will hit sales. We reported back in October that Ford are planning to move production of the Kuga to the US in 2011, and will launch the Ford Kuga in to the US market as a replacement […]
Volvo S60 (2010/2011) – the Video
Volvo has released video of the 2010 / 2011 Volvo S60 ahead of the official launch at the Geneva Motor Show in a few months. We first got the new Volvo S60 tease nearly a year ago, and rather unkindly we speculated that the production car would look nothing like the concept. It looked far […]
Who got a MINI for Christmas, then?
MINI has run an Ad campaign in the Netherlands featuring an empty MINI ‘Box’ at the side of the road. It’s a familiar sight at this time of the year. Rubbish bags piled up at the side of the road (look out – they’ll fine you) surrounded by packaging from Christmas gifts. And most of us don’t […]
