Talk about taking it to the competition! Placing a car squarely against the might of the new BMW M4 may not be a competition that many could win, but Lexus has a new weapon – the RC F. This is the most powerful V8 engine Lexus have ever produced and it delivers on that promise […]
Is this the car we’ve all been waiting for from Jaguar? The Jaguar F-Type is a great looking car with the roof down. But how does the hard topped version compare to the previous roadster? Watch the video from Autocar to find out. Suffice to say, ownership isn’t a cheap proposition but if your other […]
2014 could well be the year of the hypercar. Whilst Lamborghini is touting the Huracan (LP 610-4 to give the full title) as a super sports car, it is so breathtakingly quick that by previous standards it straddles the segments between super and hyper. Power comes from a new V10 engine that is capable of […]
I’ve long been an advocate for the Vauxhall VXR8 and the earlier Monaro. If you want V8 power in a muscle car body for relatively little cash in comparison to the competition, then you could do far, far worse than this car. The latest edition from Vauxhall is this car – the VXR8 GTS. It […]
So, you’ve got a significant amount of disposable income to spend on an extremely quick, very aggressive coupe. Santa has clearly been very good to you indeed. Perhaps Autocar has been just as good in testing Jaguar XKR-S GT, the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S and the Mercedes C63 AMG Black Series. Just which of […]
The new Aston Martin Vanquish, Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, Jaguar XKRS GT, McLaren 12C Sprint and Telsa Model S will converge on Birmingham’s NEC to headline the supercar presence at the Performance Car Show on 9-12 January 2014. Boasting almost 3,000bhp between them, the cars will take the spotlight on the stand of automotive magazine Autocar, […]
So, what makes a GT car? A useful passenger space? A boot? Some performance? Well, how about the proposition of the fastest production Ferrari ever. The F12berlinetta is a ludicrously wide, insanely fast car that is capable of munching miles with aplomb. Alternatively, stick to the back roads and the ferocious 6.3-litre V12 engine has […]
Some events are simply a ‘must’ on the motorsport calendar. The Goodwood Festival of Speed is one such, alongside the great Goodwood Revival. I haven’t been able to go for a couple of years and I’m inevitably left in envy of those who can make it! Next year will see the theme of ‘Addicted to […]
I’m slightly baffled as to how this has slipped under the radar of a lot of other car websites and magazines as the Volvo V60 and S60 engineered by Polestar is sure to make an exciting proposition. The car goes on sale in 2014 and offers a complete and bespoke Polestar set up. “We are […]
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 […]
