61 years of mud-plugging draws to an end for hardiest Landy. Land Rover remains committed to replacing the Defender in its line-up, and will have to define its replacement in the next three years. It told Australian website GoAuto Newsthat modern safety and emissions laws are making the rugged Defender untenable, and the car’s current […]

Online magazine poll puts Rangie ahead of Veyron, GT-R and Tata Nano… A top ten list of anything is usually good for a punch-up, and the result of Autocar magazine’s top 10 cars of the decade survey looks as if it might deliver the goods. According to their online reader poll that ran for two weeks […]

JLR has announced a £30k ‘indicative’ starting price for the new Range Rover Evoque, along with a jolly set of pictures showing the car in its final production form.
