One of the reasons (aside from the history) that Porsche cars are so iconic is the look, the rear drive and the sporty drive. The new Porsche Boxster Spyder 2010 brings this all together in the ultimate package that, whilst being expensive, offers something truly special for the discerning driver. The new model becomes the […]
Quite an interesting comparison this one – in the video the 2010 Tesla Roadster is pitted against the Porsche Boxster Spyder by Motor Trend. Of course, if you’ve seen the episode of Top Gear where the Tesla is tested, you may still be wondering whether it is suffering from reliability issues. Either way, there’s still […]
Yes, that’s probably the longest title on the blog, but the above is also one of the best supertests I’ve ever seen. Great job done by Autocar on this one and I must say that I’m extremely jealous. Perhaps most impressive is the sheer monstrous performance of the Bugatti Veyron. It makes even the mighty […]
Ever wanted to see a Nissan GT-R versus a Porsche 997 GT3 versus a BMW M3? I thought you might have done, which is why I have decided to embed the video above. No, I won’t spoil the fun for any of you and for my money, any of these cars would be a dream […]

Well, it’s been 60 years of Porsche and what a journey. Few cars have managed to sustain such a motoring evolution through their history, rather than a revolution. Even fewer have the same setup as Porsche – that being the rear drive, rear engine setup that is a peculiarity to the German automotive giant. Mentioning […]
Do you know someone who bangs on and on about how modern cars or rubbish? Or how about the bloke in the pub who claims that his old Triumph TR-7 is better than anything else on the road? It always interests me when this sort of argument crops up – not least because I think […]
I’ve thought about this question before because I would like to quantify exactly what makes them special. The area of the car market I’m talking about is the really top end – not the things mind that are just expensive cruisers (such as the Rolls Royce range) but stuff with scary, balls-to-the-wall performance to go […]
