The Mercedes G-Class is not exactly one of Mercedes’ front-line models. But it is iconic and has been with us since the ’70s. Which means the G-Class is now 30 years old, and to celebrate Mercedes has decided to add a few nips and tucks to the venerable 4×4. Don’t get too excited, though. These […]

Update 12/2/2010: Citroen has now revealed the DS 4 in concept form as the Citroen DS High rider Concept.

Porsche Panamera – Promo Video
Things have gone a little quiet on the Porsche Panamera front recently. After an understandable plethora of news and stories on the Panamera around reveal time at Shanghai, Porsche hasn’t had much to say on the car. But with the first Panameras getting out on the road, and the Porsche Panamera launching in the UK […]
Ford Kuga Coupe planned?
The Ford Kuga is a great little 4×4. It offers all that most people want in a small crossover/SAV car and does it in a good package with great looks.

What makes it more interesting for an old cynic like me is the statement that […]
Lexus LF-A UK debut at Goodwood

Mercedes CLS Grand Edition – UK details
Back in January we reported on the Mercedes CLS Grand Edition, so it has taken five months for the car to become available in the UK. But it’s here now. I really like the Mercedes CLS. In top engine form in particular it is an astonishingly good drive. It doesn’t feel at all like a […]
