New Subaru Legacy revealed – but it’s not coming to the UK

The new Subaru Legacy (pictured) has been revealed in Chicago The new Subaru Legacy was teased last week ahead of its reveal at the Chicago Auto Show, and now it’s been revealed it’s a bit…disappointing. It’s disappointing because it has really lost the flair and swoopy style of the new Legacy Concept we saw at the L.A. Auto Show in November, replacing it with a slightly rakish traditional saloon.

SEAT Ibiza Bocanegra – Official

SEAT Ibiza Bocanegra - coming to the UK by the end of this year. First shown as a concept at the Geneva Motor Show in 2008, it is back to be unveiled as a proper production model at the Barcelona Motor Show in full, road-ready trim. Based on the SEAT Ibiza Cupra, this promises to be a hot hatch with lots to offer.

Audi S1 at Paris

The Audi S1 will have a Paris Launch (A1 Wörthersee Concept pictured) It’s getting on for a year since we reported that – despite some saying it wouldn’t happen – Audi were planning at least a warm version of the A1 and had on the drawing board the Audi S1 to take on the MINI Cooper. So it’s not a shock that we hear Audi are planning on bring the S1 along to Paris for a reveal before getting the S1 on the roads by the second quarter of 2011. Expect the usual Audi S bits in the mix  - bigger wheels, fettled suspension, beefed-up brakes, body kit – and power in the S1 to come from the S/C turbo 1.4 TSI found in the VW Polo GTI, although the S1 may just get a tweaked version of the engine as befits its higher standing in the VW hierarchy with a bit more than the 178 horses the Polo GTI manages.
