The ultimate car geek tour: we go inside Ferrari

The ultimate car geek tour: we go inside Ferrari

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 09 May 2013 16:00

Tues, 7 May. 9.30pm After a flight out of Heathrow and a bewildering detour on a bus, we finally arrive in Maranello for a late dinner at the Museo Ferrari. There's bags of interesting stuff here, but the 288 GTO-based GTO Evoluzione [left] catches my eye - it never raced, but fed into the F40 project – as does the F40 Competizione, ...

Bayley visits the McLaren Technology Centre (CAR archive April 2007)

My first visit to McLaren was 1967, organised by a dutiful parent with industry connections. In those days the premises was an insanitary lock-up garage on a Weybridge trading estate. A boggle-eyed schoolboy, I was admiring the M6 Can-Am car. My boggling increased when, from out back, a cheery, chattery bloke emerged in grubby racing overalls, unpolished lace-ups, rubbing Swarfega ...

Given that the company’s Asian sales rose by 103% in 2011, news that Aston Martin has recently opened its largest ever showroom in Shanghai – a glittering, eighteen car-capacity blitzkrieg of arch-capitalism – is hardly cause for an inadvertent splutter of gently soggy breakfast cornflakes over the editorial pages of the daily rag. This particular Briton does, nonetheless, see it as ...

Up the Goodwood hill in a Lambo Performante

Up the Goodwood hill in a Lambo Performante

I was lucky enough to pilot the Lamborghini Performante up the hill at Goodwood this past weekend (yup, that was me taking it gingerly during both supercar runs on Sunday). It’s flamboyant and OTT and its four fat tailpipes play the most wondrous, deep-chested mix of bellows and howls – and this Spyder version only brings you closer to that ...

Remembering the underdogs: the 1989 Honda NSX

Remembering the underdogs: the 1989 Honda NSX

I spotted the NSX heading London-bound up the A3 early on Saturday morning, on the way to attend my best mate’s stag do. It was pristine, its cherry red paintwork and unscarred five-spoke silver alloys glinting in the sunlight. Low, sleek and barrelling along at a very decent pace, it looked utterly gorgeous. I was instantly struck at just how fresh and ...

In the new April 2011 issue of CAR – out now – there are some great stories. Top of the list is an exclusive group test, as we pit the Porsche Cayman R against the Lotus Evora S, BMW M3 and Nissan GT-R. There’s another world exclusive, too: only CAR has had access to both Alfa and Saab’s stunning new ...

Porsche 911 GT2 RS: scariest car at PCOTY

Porsche 911 GT2 RS: scariest car at PCOTY

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 22 December 2010 09:00

There were lots of questions in my head before we left Dover for the south of France and Performance Car Of The Year 2010, but one was easy: scariest car? The Porsche 911 GT2RS. I reckon you’ll either know exactly what this car is, or you’ll have all the GT and RS cars jumbled together in your brain and won’t ...

Poring over the photos from our May 2010 cover shoot, we were struck by a sequence of frames showing ace photographer Paul Barshon at work. We'd gathered together eight of the greatest Quattros ever conceived by Audi to celebrate 30 years of fast four-wheel drives and writer Jethro Bovingdon was out to prove a point. Namely that Quattros will drift. ...
