If Holden’s ‘billion dollar baby’, the VE Commodore, had engines like these back in 2005 then it truly would have been worthy of the rave reviews it received at the time.
While I would concede that the looks, which personally don’t overly appeal to me, have stood the test of time, the mechanical package was behind [...]

This is one Porsche for which you’ll need your brave pills
Locked away in the German countryside is an unassuming light grey building. It’s two storeys high, and a sloping car park on the right hand side dips away to a few garages at the back. To drive down the road, you’d probably go straight past [...]

I’m all for safe driving, but our maximum legal speed limit in Australia is considered dangerously slow in many sections of Germany’s high-speed autobahn system.
By Anthony Crawford
And no, I’m not trying to be funny either we have absolute proof of how dangerous these so-called safe speeds of ours can be over there.

So here we are, back in Sydney after another comfortable business class flight – thanks Etihad – and are feeling somewhat relieved that after more than three weeks it’s touchdown on home soil.
But the relief was shortlived after we realised that we’d just landed back in the most over-lawed, under-policed country on earth. To sit [...]

Before we left for Copenhagen, we had a phone call from our contact at Koenigsegg, the CCX-R that we were scheduled to drive was no longer available. So there we were, 24 hours away from our shoot, all hotels, car rentals, accommodation booked and no car to drive.
We really didn’t know what to do, but [...]

It’s about five degrees outside and having finally found reliable internet after almost a week, it’s nice to sit back and write this update.
In the past few days we’ve driven Spain’s GTA Spano, the first media outlet offered a drive, plus we drove the Veritas RSIII along the same path that James Bond took when [...]
GTA Spano – First Steer

“Full Throttle track tests the new GTA Spano in a world first drive on Spain’s Ricardo Tormo race circuit in Valencia.”
With 573kW and 920Nm, the GTA Spano is the real deal. Blisteringly quick with race-car-like handling, this may also be the best looking supercar on the planet right now; at least that’s what we think.

We are blessed to be the first media organisation in the world to drive the new Spanish supercar, the GTA Spano. Any footage of the car in motion is under embargo until September, however, here is a preview.
