This is the new 2010 Lotus Eilse. Gone is the old 1.8 litre engine and instead there’s a 1.6. The power is the same, the car looks very familiar and the sporty drive is naturally in place. There’s a special place in my heart for Lotus cars and the Elise is particularly special. Want one? […]
The Mail Online is reporting that drivers have been hit by speeding fines to the tune of more than £1 billion. Police forces around the country could, until 2007, keep some of the money raised by this system. This of course provides an incentive for a force to put more cameras up. My question is […]
Announced on www.ferrari.com there’s a new sight – the Ferrari 599 GTO. It’s a modified, extreme V12 berlinetta, set to be one of the most exclusive limited edition vehicles to be released this year. In fact the 599 GTO is based on the 599XX, the advanced experimental track car, and can be considered almost a […]
How do you feel about the fact that there are perfectly good cars (some of which will no doubt have done fewer miles than you’d expect due to their age) up for scrap?

Just how good is this final swan song for the final Ford Focus of this generation going to be? Well, I’m pretty sure it’s going to be very special indeed. Just take a look at the video above and see what you think. Imagine having that following you on a B road late at night! […]
It’s a pet hate of mine – when a buyer gets in their mind that they want a particular car, despite the fact that they’ve never driven it, or even suitable alternatives that better suit their needs. Not only do they run the risk of being disappointed, but by driving before buying, they can sure […]
The Mail Online is reporting that petrol prices may be rising to record levels soon – which will obviously have a massive knock-on effect for motorists who visit the pumps on a weekly basis. I filled up a little earlier in the week and paid just under 120p per litre – a staggering amount which […]
Auto Trader is reporting that the police in Richmond, Surrey are trying people’s car doors and taking their valuables back to the station – for collection of course.
