Now it’s the turn of the Germans to jump on the Electric Car political PR bandwagon. They are in ‘Illustrious’ company. We had the Portuguese commit to Electric Cars a while back and Boris wants to make London the Electric Car Capital of Europe. And out own national Government wants to throw £5k at electric […]

Noble M600 new photos
When we brought you news on Monday of the new Noble M600 the only photos we had to hand were a set of fairly low-resolution ones we had from Noble, but Noble has now got some decent resolution images over to us, which you can see in the Noble M600 Gallery at the bottom. We […]
Gumpert Apollo S sets Nurburgring record +video
Every car maker on the planet seems to obsessed with breaking a Nurburgring record. And who can blame them. Every time a new claim comes in people like us write about it, and that gives them publicity that would cost a fortune to buy. Probably the biggest spat this year has been over the Nissan […]
Frankfurt Motor Show 2009 Preview
A preview of the launches we expect at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show. Updated as we get more information. As you will already have realised from the number of pieces we’ve done lately that have ‘Frankfurt’ in the title, the Frankfurt Motor Show 2009 is looming quickly. And we’ve not even had summer yet (apart […]
Aston Martin Rapide – the Video
There really are some big advantages of having been in the car news game for a long, long time. Cars UK is a relative newcomer compared in particular to people like Autocar, which is about as old as car magazines get. Which probably explains why Autocar editor Steve Cropley was lucky enough to find himself […]
Bugatti Bordeaux / Royale looking likely
We reported a couple of weeks ago on rumours flying around about a four-door Bugatti, which would either be the Bordeaux or the Royale. It’s nice to speculate, and the speculation – which has been around forever – did have some substance. Bugatti had issued an invite to Veyron owners to an event, and the […]
2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS Video
It looks a bit like John got out of bed on the wrong side this morning judging by the piece he did on the new Porsche 911 GT3 RS. But then has a big hang-up about what he sees as unnecessary weight saving. But being a fat old man that’s hardly surprising! He still bangs […]

Porsche 911 GT3 RS (2010) bows in
Hot on the heels of the new 2010 Porsche 911 Turbo comes the announcement this morning from Porsche of the 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS. A subtle looking Porsche. As you can probably guess, the first thing the latest GT3 RS gets is a hike in power, courtesy of the move from the old naturally […]
Noble M600 arrives
It’s been on the cards for a while, the Noble M600. We’ve seen umpteen spy shots and we recently reported the Noble M600 testing in what looked like production-ready guise, so we guessed it wouldn’t be too far away. And it wasn’t. I think this is what is called ‘Going up-market’. The M600 is going […]
