The Mercedes SLS AMG is a superb vehicle and the one thing that it probably doesn’t need is an upgrade in the horsepower department. So that is precisely what they have done by upping power to 591bhp – an extra 20 horsepower over the original. Other upgrades also include a tweaked suspension, and changes to the […]

McLaren are to give all their customers a free upgrade on their engines to 625bhp on the MP4-12C.

The performance department of Mercedes, AMG, have bought out yet another model to add to their range. This one means they have a 7 seat car that can accelerate to 60 in under 5 seconds! For all the petrolheads out there this does sound like manna from heaven with its 5.5 litre V8 engine able to […]

Zagato and BMW have both designed a beautiful looking coupe which we believe is based on the BMW Z4 chassis. As it is a concept car none of the usual regulations apply, such as passenger and pedestrian safety, but we think it would be great if they put in the investment and produced something like […]

When the new Ford Focus ST arrives with dealers in June, the 250bhp car will be priced at £22,000 and the estate version £23,000. This makes the car some £3,000 cheaper than the equivalent models from both Volkswagen and Renault. As before, 3 different trim levels will be available – ST1, ST2, and ST3. Bluetooth […]
