Jaguar and Land Rover’s Big Chinese Takeaway

[ad#ad-1] As we are only too well aware, car makers are having the most torrid of times.

CDN and Opel/Vauxhall launch Interactive Design Competition

Opel/Vauxhall today asks students: "What do you think is our lounge style?" as part of a new, interactive design competition being launched with Car Design News.
