Car Blog & Car News
The good folk over at Carmony have recently launched a new blog with some quite interesting articles – naturally the blog itself concerns motoring! I particularly liked their post on The Highway Code. Something I think I’ll feature fairly soon myself as we don’t talk about it enough I find, especially given some of the […]
It’s always an epic event when Ferrari shows off a new car – or rather piece of automotive history in the making, as their vehicles tend to be. The showing of the Ferrari 599XX was no different. Based on the 599 GTB Fiorano but with a huge amount of changes (along with the requisite power […]
In a move that’s no doubt going to be seen by some as a ‘falling on the sword’ tactic to take the heat from the team, Ron Dennis has spectacularly quit Formula One after more than forty years in the business. Dennis insisted that his decision had nothing to do with the recent scandal that’s […]

Improvements have been made to body stiffness and overall structural rigidity, […]
The Lagonda name is actually a 100 year old car marque – last brought forth from 1976 to 1991 as a massive, hugely sophisticated saloon. Unreliable, massive and thirsty, the Lagonda wasn’t a huge success, yet because of the unique nature of the car it remains to have some fans to this day. The new […]
It’s not every often when a car company gets really creative – especially with theirl mail. In this case, Vauxhall have come up with the goods for the new Sports Tourer Insignia. A mailshot landed through my letterbox that had a ‘RESTRICTED’ sign across it and a complex opening system. When in, the full colour […]
M is the most powerful and evocative letter in the BMW alphabet. The character that denotes BMW’s motorsport history and its prowess in developing road-going sports cars now enters a new chapter in its history. In a first for BMW UK, the marque has teamed up with MotorSport Vision (MSV) to offer a package of […]
A survey conducted by Exchange & Mart has shown that fuel economy is becoming a major factor when considering the purchase of a used vehicle.
