  • Will the new Lada Niva Travel be sold in the UK? 14 Jan 2021 (News)
    The rear also sees the introduction of LED taillights and a more embossed bumper. All Lada Niva Travel cars are equipped with a permanent four-wheel-drive system, while off-road versions get a standard snorkel, off-road tyres and an unpainted plastic body kit to protect the paintwork from damage. The Niva joined Lada's range in 1979, but financial difficulties prompted AvtoVAZ (Lada's parent company) to withdraw from most European markets in 1997. The SUV was rebranded as the Chevrolet Niva between 2003 and 2020 when AvtoVAZ was in a joint venture with General Motors called GM-AvtoVAZ.  Lada is now part of Renault and shares its platform with a number of vehicles from the French carmaker's line-up.
  • The end of the road for the Geneva Motor Show as 2021 event cancelled 30 Jun 2020 (News)
    The organisers of the Geneva Motor Show - where new cars models and concepts are revealed - have cancelled next year's event following a lack of interest from carmakers. Next year's Geneva Motor Show, which was due to take place in March 2021, will not go ahead - with the owners looking to sell the event. The announcement raises questions about the future of motor shows as a whole.
  • Fords set new records at auction 5 Oct 2018 (News)
    A restored 1972 Ford Escort RS1600 and a  low-mileage 1990 Ford Sierra Sapphire Cosworth 4x4 set new records at auction this month. Both the cars went under the hammer at Silverstone Auctions’ September sale. The Escord offered collectors the chance to own one of the few remaining genuine homologation specials.

  • Drivers who don't have regular eye tests risk voiding their insurance 7 Nov 2017 (News)
    An accident deemed to be caused by bad vision can lead to prosecution and an insurer terminating your policy, yet one in three drivers don't have regular eye tests. According to a survey by ClickMechanic, an online marketplace for car repairs, many drivers do not abide by the NHS-recommended eye test every two years - putting them and other road users at increased risk. Not only is it unsafe to drive with impaired vision, it can also be reason for insurers to terminate policies, leaving you in the lurch with repair costs.
  • Fuel prices rise through September, but cuts are expected soon 3 Oct 2017 (News)

  • Autumn Statement 2016: How will it affect you? 23 Nov 2016 (News)
    .  The planned rise in fuel duty has – for the seventh year in succession – been frozen at 57.9p-per-litre.

  • Frankfurt Motor Show 2015: New Audi A4 previewed 15 Sep 2015 (News)
    The new A4 will reach UK showrooms in December 2015. The new A4 is longer and wider than the outgoing car, with more head and legroom in the cabin. Available in saloon and Avant bodystyles, the A4 will provide as much as 1510 litres of bootspace with the rear seats down; however, daily running costs are significantly lower, with more Ultra models available with low rolling resistance tyres and smaller wheel sizes.  From launch there will be seven engines – three petrol and four diesels, with the most cost effective powertrain being the 150PS 2.0-litre TDI Ultra that will return an impressive 74.3mpg and emit 99g/km of CO2.  For performance seekers, there will also be S badged models, with a 3.0-litre V6 petrol engine with 354PS and 500Nm of torque, equating to a 0-62mph in 4.7 seconds.
  • Curios: Volkswagen Country Buggy 16 Jun 2015 (News)
    Marketing material of the time showed the Country Buggy equally at home in the Outback and on safari as it was hauling bales of hay around a farm, reinforcing its image as a practical utility car. The Country Buggy was perhaps at its best in fully-open form, although its canvas roof and roll-down ‘doors’ gave some protection against the elements once the weather turned. Still, who worried about minor things like comfort and dryness when you had a vehicle as rugged and as useful as this?
  • Techno Classica 2015: Blue Train Bentley celebrates 85th birthday 20 Apr 2015 (News)

A total of 182 Speed Sixes were built between 1929 – 1930 with a variety of body styles and types from several coachbuilders.

    ‘It’s an extremely exciting new project that begins at Fen End today, underscoring the very essence of what Special Operations is all about – celebrating heritage with our eyes firmly on the future.’ Many of the cars are from the James Hull collection , which Jaguar recently acquired.
