If you’re a ‘regular’ here at Car Articles, you’ll know that I am a big fan of everything Lotus. The reason is quite simple – Lotus make absolutely cracking little sports cars with a purity of purpose that few other manufacturers match. The Exige is a prime example of this and the Scura that you […]
This is one of my favourite clips from Top Gear – even though it doesn’t actually feature a car! It does though have a 6.2 litre V8 Corvette engine that powers a rocking chair. Absolute madness, but brilliant. Still, for my money, nothing has eclipsed the Rocket Robin that sadly didn’t get to space but […]
The Times has a really good article on the lower drink drive limit. What do you make of the proposal? Seems like a fairly sensible idea I guess, though for right-minded individuals, it shouldn’t make too much of a difference at all – due to the fact that we wouldn’t drink and drive anyway. Part […]
Finally, the long awaited Nissan GT-R SpecV has gone on sale, with a total of just 40 examples being made available in the UK, priced at £124,900. However, you’d better be quick as order books will close on 22nd January 2010. Make sure to order before 14 December for delivery in April, or if you […]
Yes, the Insignia VXR Sports Tourer in the video is badged Opel, but it’s a GM so really it could equally be a Vauxhall. Anyway, the point is that I think this is a cracking looking car and as it’s a VXR will no doubt pack a very good punch for the money. Kudos to […]

There are a range of exciting assignments up for grabs, with details available directly on the website. Do you fancy […]
We at Car Articles are quite a cosmopolitan bunch – that’s why we’re one of the few blogs or indeed publishers out there to feature Bufori. Who is Bufori, I hear you ask? Well, they’re a bespoke manufacturer of rather interesting exotica, including their BMS line which focuses specifically on racing machinery. Here’s the report […]
The Ford Focus RS continues to impress the critics, with the award of another major title – the Nuts magazine Car of the Year 2009 trophy. This latest prize joins the Scottish ‘sporting’ Car of the Year 2009 award presented earlier this month, and is set to accelerate orders for Ford’s definitive hot hatch. More […]
The scrappage scheme that was providing desperately needed buyers of new cars to forecourts across the UK will not be extended to 2010 it has been announced. Lord Mandelson (Peter) told a conference on the 24th that the scheme will end as planned. A total of 400,000 motorists are likely to have taken up the […]
It’s been discussed in some circles now that the way to make roads safer is to actually reduce the number of signs, passive safety measures and other street elements. Apparently, the idea is that we’re all so used to seeing various things on the road that we begin to ignore them and fall into a […]
