The Hamster needs a garage!
Poor old Richard Hammond. First he gets nearly killed playing silly-buggers with a mad rocket car, and now the poor man has nowhere to keep his own cars. Like Clarkson, Top Gear presenter Hammond lives in the sticks, in his case in rural Herefordshire close to the Welsh border, and about 50 miles from his […]
Aston Martin Rapide – First Official Image
Those clever chaps over at Car Magazine have managed to get their hands on what they claim to be the first official images of the Aston Martin Rapide, the Aston Martin answer to the forthcoming Porsche Panamera. Not that you’d ever guess where they came from, with all those ‘Car Magazine’ watermarks plastered across the […]
1962 E-Type Jaguar auction – a ‘Wags’ delight.
I’m really not too sure there are any footballers wives or girlfriends who hanker after a classic car. I suppose you’d have to think more along the lines of Audrey Hepburn or Grace Kelly, rather than Posh Spice or Coleen Rooney, for that sort of good taste. But if there is a Wag out there […]

Even Porsche is feeling the pinch
The last week has seen a raft of reports about the slow-down of sales at the luxury end of the market. Aston Martin is suffering badly, Bentley has serious problems and Jaguar & Land Rover, both owned by Indian firm Tata, are pushing the government for a £1 billion loan. And today comes news that […]
2009 Mazda 3 hatchback unveiled ahead of Bologna
Mazda has today released the first pictures of the new Mazda 3 hatchback, ahead of the Bologna Motor Show on December 3rd. The pictures come hot on the heels of the recently announced saloon and, just like the saloon, the Mazda 3 hatchback is a much fresher design, with far more sporty pretensions. One of […]
Ferrari California Configurator – a wonderful time-waster.
Many of the major manufacturers have had online configurators for some time. The dreamers can go and dream, and the real punters can go and see what they can live without. The likes of Porsche and Mercedes have being doing this for some time, but Ferrari hasn’t really felt the need to play – until […]
