Rated 4 out of 54

Shaun Firmin, 29 September 2011 11:15

Rather than embroiling themselves in our live blogging from the 2010 Paris motor, the senior statesmen of CAR (executive editor Gavin Green, contributing editor Ben Oliver and European editor Georg Kacher) have instead retreated to the comfort of a Rolls-Royce Phantom to discuss the 2010 Paris motor show.

Toyota & Lexus news at 2009 Tokyo motor show

Rated 2 out of 52

Ben Pulman, 21 October 2009 04:00

The vibe on the Toyota stand is subdued, yet upbeat at the same time. They're chuffed to bits with their new products on show, but we can't help remembering Japan's – and the world's – premier car maker's $4.9 billion loss last year. And it's forecast to lose a similar amount in 2009. The undoubted star of the show is ...

Finnish rally ace Marcus Gronholm averted disaster to make a promising debut at the 2009 Pikes Peak international hillclimb. The world rally champion’s attempt was severely hampered when the rear tyre of his Ford Fiesta exploded, forcing him to limp home to a still-respectable fifth position in a time of 11min 28.963sec. Japanese rally star Nobuhiro ‘Monster’ Tajima claimed first ...

TMS Geneva motor show 2009 blog

Rated 3 out of 53

TMS, 05 March 2009 15:45

Ok so, initial impressions, here we go! Give Hummer the finger, get butterflies from Zonda. Disappointed by Bentley, fly past another CCX edition. Strangely attracted by Octavia estate 4x4 [perhaps all the car the utilitarian/pragmatist would ever need], like the look of the pumped up Fabia. Polo is solid looking, solid feeling, Passat CC 'Blue', efficient though it is, is ...
