How About A Sports Car? (Part 1)

April 11, 2008 by Mr Butterscotch Leave a Comment

The Mazda RX-8 with rotary engine.

In my last article, I took a look at ‘green’ cars that you could buy – stuff that if you drove it every day it wouldn’t try too hard to stuff up the environment on your way to work. What I’m going to do in this article is exactly the opposite. Why, I’m sure you’re […]

The Porsche 911 is the eighties icon

March 31, 2008 by Fraser 3 Comments

porsche 911

Despite what we maybe seeing on TV, it seems for those people who are old enough the Porsche 911 is the iconic cars of the eighties and the Audi Quattro which has had a nice bit of publicity on the hit TV show Ashes to Ashes came in a close second. Out of all the […]

It is of course now confirmed that the Indian conglomerate Tata is the proud owner of two traditionally British marques, Land Rover and Jaguar.  Apparently this all came to conclusion over months of painstaking negotiations, along with several new cars from the various marques such as Tata’s Nano (shown, the ultra small, ultra cheap new […]

It does not seem to be that long ago when it was announced that Ford had finally relented and decided to build the 2008 Focus RS, but nobody would have guessed that all of this would have happened so fast, for with just a few months the new RS has been spotted out and about […]

Used Car Buying 101

March 19, 2008 by Mr Butterscotch 6 Comments

Well, as my last post was discussing the purchase of a used MX-5 (though preferably in good condition), I thought it only fair to talk you through some of the issues I’ll be considering prior to making the all-important purchase (as well as being before the next Formula 1 race).

New look Land Rover

freelander sport

Despite all of the ownership fears at the present with Jaguar and Land Rover, it would seem that the both companies are still fully committed in bringing out some new quality models which will definitely get the pulses racing of some Range Rover driver who want something slight smaller, and of course at the same […]

I’m undertaking a new project very soon – the restoration of a Mazda MX-5.  ‘Restoration?’  You might be thinking.  Well, I’m looking at, ideally, a model for around £1,000 with a removable hard top, rather than a soft cover.  No doubt it’ll be an import, or Eunos as they’re also known in the UK.  Almost […]

number plates

There was a time when buying a car was simple as anything and even easier to tell the year of the year by the letter on the end on the registration number. But it appears despite being out for nearly eight years the new style number plates are confusing the buyers of second hand cars. […]

March 14, 2008 by Fraser 3 Comments

jag gal

If there was ever a reason to say that something has been over done, then this must be the case. Galpin who are the USA’s largest Jaguar dealer have come up with their own version of how the XF would have looked if they were designing it. To be honest it looks ok from one […]
