We’ve played the game, along with just about every other car site and publication in the world. Not revealing the Stig’s identity that is.

Audi A4 top of the heap in Germany
The Germans love a premium saloon car, and make some of the finest there are. BMW, Mercedes and Audi all have a fine range of premium cars, but it’s BMW who have taken the bulk of the sales with the 3 Series. But not any more. The German car buyers have now woken up to […]

Boris drives a Tesla Roadster
You’ve got to hand it to Tesla, or at least their P.R. people. They are certainly in the news in 2009. We brought you the news from Detroit that Tesla is to introduce a new version of its Tesla Roadster, the Tesla Roadster S, followed by the news that they are seeking finance for a […]
VW win Dakar Rally in a Diesel Touarag
The Dakar rally is a cruel and hostile event, over 5000km of the toughest territory for any car rally. Never before won by a diesel engined vehicle, VW has achieved a first by not only winning the gruelling event in a diesel Touarag, but coming in second as well. This ends a seven year domination […]

Fly to Timbuktu – in a car
We’ve been expecting flying cars to be the norm since the early 1920s sci-fi films that had everyone flying around the place in their very own sky buggy. But, despite countless efforts to make them a reality, they have never really happened. But a London company, Parajet, has just announced the launch of an expedition […]
