Zenvo ST1 – Danish Supercar

First it was Sweden with their bespoke and mind- warpingly quick Koenigsegg. But at least that was plausible, given Sweden’s long-standing stake in the automotive industry. Now it’s Denmark’s turn, with a car more powerful than the Bugatti Veyron and from what we know, just as expensive.

On a recent trip to Sweden via Copenhagen [...]

Formula One Star to drive SEAT

The youngest Formula One driver in history, 19 year-old Spaniard Jamie Alguersuari, will drive a SEAT Leon Cupra R, when he ‘s not driving his racing car.

Jamie was just 19 years old, when he drove for the Torro Rosso team in the Hungarian Grand Prix this year.

As well as breaking the record as the [...]

Hyundai i30cw Long-Term Update

Test model: Hyundai i30cw SX CRDi, 5-speed manual transmission – $24,390 (manufacturer’s list price)

It’s easier loading my 7 year-old daughter’s mountain bike into the i30cw wagon; than it was in any SUV I’ve driven this year. I figure it’s the low load entry that accounts for this revelation.

Many of the soft-roaders with a [...]

Formula One Gamer

So you reckon you’re a pretty fast driver eh, quick enough to steer a Formula One car around Monza perhaps?
What about your own private F1 car, any time of the day or night, on any circuit you wish, in the comfort of your own home.
Too good to be true? Well, almost, for just 120,000 [...]

Alfa Romeo Montreal – Supercar 1970

Alfa Romeo built some of world’s best looking cars in the ‘60’s and ‘70’s, proper sports cars, which drove well and were somewhat affordable to the average hard-working punter.

I myself was the proud owner of a 1975 2.0-litre Spider and to this day remain in mourning over its sale in the interest of furnishing [...]

BMW 1 Series M?

As far back as late 2007, there were reports circulating around the web of a possible ‘M’ version of the 1 Series.

Those rumours did seem a little far fetched, given the blistering performance of the current 135i with its twin turbo straight six engine developing a whopping 225kW and enough to sling shot the [...]

Range Rover Sport Supercharged Review

Location – Scottish Badlands – Photography: Nick Dimbleby

The fast and the furious of the off-road world

It weighs 2,590 kilograms, yet will blast off from a standing start to 100km/h in 6.2 seconds. It’s also sports car tidy through the bends and more luxurious than a suite at the Dorchester.

You’re looking at Land [...]

China is on track to sell 80 cars this year, which is 23 [...]

Porsche Boxster Spyder

Pure, light, and fast, made up the DNA code for the original Porsche 550 when it was first revealed to the public at the 1953 Paris Motor Show.

The 550 as it was initially known before the Spyder nameplate was added, was built with a single purpose in mind, to win races, and win it [...]

Toyota 2000 GT

If you or your father has one of those James Bond box sets, and you‘ve watched all the old Bond movies, then you may have caught a glimpse of one of the rarest cars Toyota ever built, the 2000 GT in the movie You only live twice.

The world got its first look at the [...]
