Rolls-Royce's revised Phantom meets bloggers

Keith Jones, 13 March 2012 13:00

'Rolls-Royce only embraces new technology where it enhances the overall experience.' Reassuring words delivered calmly but assuredly in Germanic English by Jörg Bause, director of manufacturing for the Goodwood-based prestige car manufacturer. Somewhat surprisingly this wasn’t a crowd pleasing-speech designed to rouse an audience of loyal clientele, but rather to a small congregation of seasoned Southern journalists, television news reporters and... ...

One million miles. It’s a barely comprehensible distance, isn’t it? It’s not like a frenzied Saturday morning trip to Ikea to stock up on Billy bookcases, this is some serious travelling.

It’s an impressive feat when a manufacturer releases five new models in a single day, and that’s what Audi’s managed to do. Or has it? By clever manipulation of its naming strategy, five new cars turns out to be a mid-life refresh of its popular A4 range and all its variants.

Judging by the frequency you see Kia’s third-generation Sportage on the roads, British buyers are captivated by its combination of Dolce & Gabbana looks at Matalan prices. But in the fiercely contested crossover market is the 1.7 CRDi front-wheel drive Sportage more style than substance in the world of faux by fours? Is the 2011 Kia Sportage as good as it ...

3.5

Keith Jones, 24 October 2011 14:25

BMW will replace the 3-series coupe with the 4-series badge for the two-door variant of its newly revealed 3-series saloon. The logic? To nudge 2013's 3-series coupe replacement upmarket a notch, much like Audi did with its A5 (essentially an A4 coupe). Munich made an eleventh hour decison not to use the 4-series moniker for 2006's E92, fearing a perceived weakening of its core ...
