Aston Martin Rapide S (2013) CAR review

Rated 2 out of 52

Ben Pulman, 05 April 2013 11:00

This is the new Aston Martin Rapide S. It’s a facelifted version of the famed British company’s super-saloon, timed perfectly to coincide with the launch of the new Maserati Quattroporte and facelifted Porsche Panamera. What’s new? The enlarged singleframe grille is big enough to make an Audi designer jealous, the 6.0-litre V12 boasts an extra 80bhp, and there’s a three-mode ...

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Pulman, 12 February 2013 11:30

This is part three of Rolls-Royce’s pre-Geneva motor show tease of its new Wraith coupe. We’ve already seen a ghostly interpretation of the Spirit of Ecstasy figurine, and a side profile shot that revealed a resemblance to a ’68 Mustang Fastback, and now Rolls has shown the rear of the Wraith, and made a few proud proclamations about just how ...

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 12 October 2011 09:21

This is the new Audi S8, a £80k and 513bhp über-limo Ingolstadt believes will take on Jaguar’s XJ Supersport and Mercedes’ S63 AMG. The new S8 is purposely positioned away from the other circa-500bhp Audi limo, the A8 W12. That other £94.5k Audi limo is powered by a naturally aspirated 6.3-litre W12 engine, produces 493bhp and 460lb ft, and comes ...

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Pulman, 30 August 2011 23:00

To offset its two tiny Urban concept cars and prove it’s still a sporty, performance-inspired brand, Audi will unveil not one but three hot S models at the 2011 Frankfurt motor show in September. The Audi S6, S7 and S8 are all powered by the company’s new 4.0-litre V8, with the most powerful iteration offering up 512bhp. Are the Audi S6, ...

Porsche Panamera Diesel (2011) first official pictures

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Pulman, 02 May 2011 08:00

Like the Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0? Then this new Porsche Panamera Diesel probably isn't the car for you – it's the cheapest and most economical Panamera yet. The new Panamera Diesel is also Porsche's second-ever diesel model, joining the Cayenne in Porsche's oil-burning range. This is a market cornered by diesel power, in Europe at least, thus expanding the sales potential of Porsche's ...

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 30 March 2011 12:00

This is the new Porsche Panamera Turbo S, and because the GT2 RS has sold out, it’s now the most powerful Porsche on sale. Porsche Panamera Turbo S: the numbers The new Porsche Panamera Turbo S is powered by the same direct injection and twin-turbo 4.8-litre V8 that’s found in the regular Panamera Turbo. But thanks to new turbochargers with ...

Porsche Panamera S Hybrid (2011) first pictures

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 16 February 2011 13:10

This is the Porsche Panamera S Hybrid, the cleanest, most fuel efficient Porsche ever. On the official combined fuel cycle it manages 159g/km and 41.5mpg, a big improvement on the Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid’s 34.3mpg and 193g/km, and comfortably ahead of the best non-hybrid Porsche, the PDK-equipped Cayman (31mpg and 214g/km CO2). The new Porsche Panamera S Hybrid will be ...

Sat-nav voices and the real people behind them

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 29 December 2010 08:45

If you’ve got a sat-nav system – and it isn’t voiced by Brian Blessed, Mr T or Master Yoda – then there’s probably a woman’s voice that commands your every move from within that little GPS screen. Like me I’m sure that at least once you’ve wondered what that woman looks like and what she would be like in real ...

Rolls-Royce Ghost Extended Wheelbase scooped

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 09 November 2010 10:51

These are the first shots of the new Rolls-Royce Ghost Extended Wheelbase, a stretched version of the ‘baby’ Rolls. It’s the first of three new additions to the Ghost family – convertible and coupe versions will follow in the next few years. Won’t a bigger Rolls-Royce Ghost go head-to-head with a Phantom? You’d think so, but the marketing men and ...
