We landed ourselves a drive with the new Jaguar F-Type, apparently we being the first media to try it out on UAE roads. This is the first Jaguar we’ve brought home in years, aside from the one we bought recently, although if memory serves us right, they’ve never built anything like it in decades.
Finally, after weeks of teasing us with sketches and spy-shots, Mercedes-Benz has officially treated us with some pictures and valuable details on the 2015 GLA-Class CUV. The new Mercedes is due to be unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show this September.
All Bentley’s are exclusive, but there always has to be something out there that has to capture the true essence of exclusiveness, and something that can’t be bought by your millionaire buddy. And this is Bentley’s answer to that thought. Yes, it is the Mulsanne Le Mans Limited Edition super stretched luxury mansion that is due to be unveiled at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in California, this week.
The 2014 Porsche Panamera has gone on sale in the UAE. It gets minor changes to the front and rear bumpers. But the main differences include new engine choices and new variants added to the Panamera lineup.
Electric cars seem to be everywhere. And even though they haven’t flooded the GCC market yet, we have a feeling that we’re not too far off. And something that could support this statement would have to be the news that the electric powered Land Rover Defender has passed the “real-world scenarios” test.
One could argue that this is just another Gallardo. But what Lamborghini announced recently is the all-wheel-drive LP 570-4 Squadra Corse, and we feel it is something similar to the LP 570-4 Super Trofeo single-series race car revealed back in 2011. The world premiere of the new offspring is expected be held at the Frankfurt Motor Show this September.
Much to the love of safari lovers, the new Range Rover has gone topless. And much of the credit goes to the engineers of the car, Newport Convertible Engineering or simply the NCE.
If you remember, our recently-purchased Jaguar XK went to the dealership straight after we were handed the keys by the previous owner, because it was throwing up “overheating” warnings. Thankfully it turned out to be just a thermostat. As soon as we picked it up from the service centre though, there was an intermittent whining noise coming from who-knows-where. Over a week, the noise became more and more common, to the point where it was even giving out the occasional whine while revved at standstill. We were expecting the worst. After all, Jaguar’s reputation precedes them.
German tuning company Brabus has released details of their treatment of the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class. It certainly does not disappoint as far as engine output numbers are concerned.
BMW has officially lifted the ‘concept’ tag that had been hovering around the much anticipated i3. And yes, the car did make a media appearance sometime ago, but it did wear a light exterior and interior camouflage. Anyways, BMW took off all the unwanted distractions and made the big announcement this week.
