My understanding is that in Europe this is not the case. The Linear being 150bhp, the Arc and Vector 175bhp and the...

I thought it may be interesting to get an idea of you guys favourite roads to drive just for the sake of going for a drive. I would start the ball rolling with the 12ml section on the A97/A944 Mossat to Strathdon section in Aberdeenshire. This is a great section of road which combines open...

Rather than flying, me and Mrs are planning on driving ALL the way across Europe, into and down through Turkey to get the ferry across to Cyprus. I know everyone else who drives to Cyprus seems to drive to Italy or Greece and get a ferry but I have a masochistic streak (which has nothing to do...

It’s the start of a new working week in the northern hemisphere, which means it’s non-stop bailout coverage once again. Well, I hope not, but that’s how things seem to have trended in recent weeks. It’s an absorbing story because it within the bigger story of GM’s survival is the story of...

I’ve received a couple of interesting transcripts in the mail over the last few days and I thought I’d share them in full here. The first one is a translation of an interview with Opel chief, Hans Demant, from Auto Motor and Sport magazine in Germany. Opel have a lot going on with the new...

Let’s get one thing straight up front. This website wouldn’t exist without the Saab 900. There were a lot of great things Saab did over the early years. The unique design of Sixten Sason’s cars, the aircraft links. Safety before it seemed important. And then there’s the whole rally thing...
