The plans for a convertible version of McLaren’s MP4-12Cseem to be confirmed after plans for the new factory revealed a Webasto area. The headline is probably a bit of an overstatement. We’ve had no official word from McLaren on a convertible MP4-12C, although we knew it was something they were planning. After all, they are […]
Lexus LF-A at Tokyo
Lexus are promising a ‘Two Seat Supercar’ at the Tokyo Motor Show. Will this be the Lexus LF-A ready to go, or do Lexus have something up their sleeves? The Lexus LF-A has been on the cards for four years. First shown at the North American Motor Show in 2005 it’s ben an on-off project […]
Ferrari 458 Italia – full price details
The full price list for the Ferrari 458 Italia has been revealed, with UK prices starting at £175,000. We had the official launch of Ferrari’s new 458 Italia at the Frankfurt Motor Show last month, but we didn’t really know what to expect in terms of price. But now we do. The 458 Italia starts […]
Bugatti Galibier Green Light
It looks like the Bugatti Galibier has been given the green light, and will be followed by a Super-Veyron and a new Bugatti Royale. A couple of weeks ago, shortly after a private unveiling to select Bugatti clients, we reported on the reveal of the Bugatti Galibier – a four-door, four-seat super saloon (and we […]
Aston Martin Rapide – the Promo Video
We have video of the new Aston Martin Rapide testing at MIRA and the Nurburgring and driving in the mountains of Italy.

The Maserati GranCabrio – the four seat convertible – has had its UK inveiling at a gala event in London. It took Maserati a long time to come up with the new, four-seat convertible – the Maserati GranCabrio. But they did, and we finally got to see if it was worth the wait when it […]
McLaren MP4-12C – the website +video
McLaren has launched a new website for the MP4-12C and we have video of the doors on the MP4-12C in action. We had the whole McLaren MP4-12C reveal a couple of weeks ago. Lots of information and lots of photos. We even had a couple of videos, including one of Ron Dennis espousing the glory […]
Mercedes SLS AMG Gullwing – too tight for comfort?
We’re hearing that the new Mercedes SLS AMG Gullwing has an uncomfortably small cabin with tight seats and restricted headroom. Mercedes, quite understandably, has made a big deal of their in-house replacement for the mighty McLaren SLR. The tease in the run-up to the reveal rivalled that of Jaguar with the new XJ, and included […]
Bentley Continental Supersports Convertible likely
Bentley look like they’re planning to introduce the Bentley Supersports Convertible some time late in 2010. Bentley introduced the Continental Supersports back at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this year. A stripped-out (it only has two seats), flex-fuel powerhouse of a Continental, it is the quickest car in Bentley’s stable. But the focus at Bentley […]
Maserati GranCabrio – the Configurator
Maserati has launched an online configurator for the new Maserati GranCabrio recently released at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Earlier this month Maserati launched their four-seater GranCabrio to the world at the Frankfurt Motor Show. An elegant and sexy Italian Convertible and, so say Maserati, the longest wheelbase convertible on the market. Presumably if Mussolini were […]
