Some of you may of heard about the new bugatti 4 door you may not have seen the pictures however as these where only little teaser shots not giving us a clear view on how this will look.
But now some new slick renderings have emerged that give a much fuller look at the new Molsheim heavyweight. Before you say it yes it is pink but this car in Black with black alloys and this could well be a fastback super-saloon with four proper doors.
Being a Bugatti you can expect the price to be as unsubtle as that pink paint (current estimates are around 1.3 million Euros [£1.1m]), and it is expected to go on sale around 2013. Place your orders guys!
BMW have announced at a press conference in Munich early this morning that it will withdraw from formula one at the end of the 2009 season. The decision was made at a board meeting 24 hours earlier.
BMW like so many other teams are after success which has not been the case over the past three years failing to much silverware. Many feel the lack of results has resulted in the BMW team pulling out at the end of the season but I also think money plays a huge part as is not cheap to rum a team in F1
This gets us thinking will this be the same case as Honda who pulled out end of last season but was taken over by Brawn could the minority shareholder and founder Peter Sauber may step in and keep the team in operation.
After months of speculation on release dates and the actual appearance of the car, Audi will now launch its long-awaited Mini challenger in 2010.
The A1 will sit nicely at the bottom of the Audi family tree and become the successor of the discontinued A2.
The A1 will not be a lot smaller than the A3, but it will consistently cheaper with prices ranging between £11,000-20,000.
The engines available for the A1 should be those from the TDI and FSI ranges. I’m sure for the people wanting a top range one they will introduce an S-Line version for the higher end of the price bracket

Is this what you have been looking for a Bullet proof Bentley for those who on their road to riches made a few enemies who may at any moment strike with assault rifles and maybe even an RPG or two.
I have to admit it does look good including how much armor it come with but for $.5M it better be saving my life with features such as:
Ballistic steel in the doors, pillars, overlaps and sides of the vehicle, bulletproof glass, run flat tires, an explosion-proof gas tank, kevlar flooring, and more. Other security options include a self-contained oxygen supply system in case of a poison gas attack and exploding hinge bolts that blast open the doors should a speedy exit become imperative.
Honda have finally announced plans to begin sales in Japan of the CR-Z hybrid sports car in February 2010 and a Fit hybrid before the end of 2010. By combining these two models with the currently available Insight and Civic Hybrid, Honda will further enhance its lineup of compact hybrid models and help it become one of the ‘greenest’ automakers in the world.
Both cars will be powered by Honda’s Integrated Motor Assist (IMA), also found in the Insight and Civic hybrids. In the case of the Insight, the IMA incorporates a 13hp (10kW) electric motor and a compact Intelligent Power Unit (IPU) – recapturing and storing kinetic energy from vehicle braking and deceleration and supplying additional power for acceleration when needed.
Not much is known about the Fit hybrid but previous reports have suggested that it could cost about ¥1.5 million (approximately $15,800) when it goes on sale late next year.
Jaguar Cars has officially unveiled the all-new XJ at the Saatchi Gallery in Chelsea, London, ending months of speculation about the shape and style of its eagerly awaited new luxury flagship.

Firefighters were called after reports that a Lamborghini had burst into flames now I’m sure this was hard for the fire fighters to believe after normally having to be called to put out old fiestas and micra’s burnt out by youths,
But this was not the case when the Lamborghini Gallardo burst into flames in Peterborough.
The 2005 model which burnt out on Friday was worth around £75,000. People close to the scene said that the bright orange car pulled up with smoke billowing from its engine. Two men were seen to jump out of the vehicle.
For many young teenagers the thought of passing their driving at a young age is very exciting as it was for myself passing at the age of 18. However this is just the beginning as so many are finding out with getting insurance becoming so difficult and expensive and let’s face it and 18 year old was never going to be able to afford over £1000 a year on insurance was they.
The cost of auto insurance varies from one group of drivers to another because some groups have worse driving records, higher accident rates and more costly accidents than others.
The highest insurance rates are paid by any male driver under the age of 25. His rate then hinges on whether he’s married and whether he owns or is the main driver of the car being insured. With the increase in young female drivers in the last twenty years, however, the accident rates between the genders are evening out.
After loads of speculation and talk regarding the release of BMW’s baby SUV the official X1 pictures and information have been released today!
Many have already stated that it looks visually similar to the current X3 and I have to agree in size and shape.
Powering the X1 is a choice of five engines – two petrol’s and three turbo-diesels. The petrol range starts with a 141bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder motor, while BMW’s familiar 3.0-litre 254bhp straight six tops the range as a whole. Diesel choices are two single-turbo 2.0-litre units with either 141bhp (xDrive18d) or 175bhp (xDrive20d), or the storming 201bhp twin-turbo diesel xDrive23d.
