Rowan Atkinson has been out playing with the Bugatti Veyron and the McLaren F1 to see which he thinks is the greatest Supercar. The Bugatti Veyron is considered by most to be the pinnacle of motoring achievement. The Supercar to end all Supercars. Clarkson calls it the ‘Concorde’ of the car world as he believes – sadly, […]

Honda CR-Z Hybrid (2010/2011) Leaks
First pictures of the Honda CR-Z Hybrid have been leaked from a Japanese brochure. The CR-Z will launch in 2010. We saw the Honda CR-Z Hybrid at the Tokyo Motor Show a few months ago as what Honda called a concept. But it was clear that this new Hybrid Coupe from Honda was anything but […]
Jaguar tops J.D. Power Survey in the US
Jaguar has topped the Luxury list in the J.D. Power Survey 2009 in the U.S, with Land Rover also in the top 5. This year’s J.D. Power survey in the UK saw Lexus winning out, but it’s a different story on the other side of the Pond, where Jaguar have come top of the crop […]
Dacia Duster launched
Dacia has released the economy, compact SUV – the Dacia Duster – which is available in 4WD or 2WD. No current plans to bring the Duster to the UK. Dacia is Renault’s Romanian brand and produces its own cars mostly based on Renault underpinnings. It currently offers none of its cars in the UK, but […]
VW Tiguan Track and Avenue (2010) released
Volkswagen has released the luxury VW Tiguan Track and Avenue in to the European market, starting at €38,000. No plans to bring the car to the UK. Even when you buy a compact SUV, it’s nice to have the option of some luxury toys. And car makers like to offer range-topping cars with lots of […]
Vauxhall planning City Car
Vauxhall/Opel’s new European boss Nick Reilly has stated that their number one priority is to develop a City Car for the Vauxhall range. With the world and his dog seemingly trying to squeeze in to smaller and smaller cars, it should come as no surprise that Vauxhall/Opel’s new boss in Europe – Nick Reilly – […]
The Ultimate Golfer’s Car – The Garia
Danish maker Garia has launched a range of up-market Golf Carts which start at a mind-boggling £14,500. I’m afraid we’d call it a Golfer’s Cart, but Garia – makers of what must surely be the most OTT golf cart in production – insist it’s a golf car. Or at least they do in all the […]
New Jaguar XJR (2010 / 2011) planned?
Are Jaguar planning on building a range-topping, barn-storming XJR / XJ Supersport R version of the new 2010 / 2011 XJ? Maybe. But only maybe. But it does make sense. After all, the other models in the Jaguar range – the XF and the XK – both sport an ‘R’ model, so why wouldn’t the […]
Geely to bid for Saab?
It’s being reported that Chinese car maker Geely is planning to make a bid for Saab after the Koenigsegg deal fell through. Chinese car maker Geely is the front-runner to take Volvo off Ford’s hands – and about time too. No doubt there is going to be the ususal angst from Ford about intellectual rights […]
Mercedes C-Class Facelift (2010) leaks
The Mercedes C Class 2010 facelift has been leaked accidentally by Mercedes UK on their website. We get used to seeing spy shots of facelifts and new cars all the time. And sometimes we get photos of soon to be released cars that have leaked out of the back door. But this time we get […]
