Not all racers are fast off the track – yet Sir Chris Hoy is a legend on two (unmotorised) wheels! He’s now looking to turn his hand at motor racing. Hoy will compete in the 2014 British GT Championship in a Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3. The car has been a feature on grids around the […]
It seems that every year Nissan create a better version of the GT-R. The latest incarnation, which is now on sale in Japan and for order in other markets, is destined to be one of the most capable cars ever made. Improvements have been made to the suspension, road noise and vibration is reduced, Dunlop […]
It’s been reported that car sales have continued to rise and that October of this year has shown an increase of more than 30% over last year. The reason has been cited as the government’s ‘cash for bangers’ or car scrappage scheme. Were you one of the lucky ones to access the £2k saving on […]
This is simply one of my favourite Top Gear videos of all time. The Nissan GT-R is a proper Japanese performance car.

The Alfa Romeo 8C Spider is nothing short of absolutely breathtaking. Unfortunately I doubt any of us will ever even get close to one in ‘real life’, but […]

As you can see from the image above, the Nissan GT-R is an absolutely staggering beast. Huge amounts of power, a reasonable price point (for all the technology) and a hand built engine. It’s one very special car indeed. Nissan though have decided to make it better for Europe: Engine power increase – up to […]
The Honda NSX is a pretty famous supercar – first due to Clarkson trying to do the same lap time at Laguna Seca as he did in Gran Turismo, and second because it is the only ‘real’ supercar that is at an affordable price range. However, this looks set to change when the new variant […]
