Concept Car of the Week: Mercedes F200 Imagination (1996)

The F200 Imagination was designed at Mercedes' Advanced Design studio in Tokyo, in response to the question 'does the car of the future still have a steering wheel and foot-operated controls?' Take a look at the car's interior and the answer was fairly emphatic, as the steering wheel and pedals were replaced by joysticks, called Sidesticks, that operated the throttle, brakes and steering by wire. There were two sticks to choose from, one on the left of the cabin and one in the center console. However, both had the same function – push forward to accelerate, left or right to turn, and back to brake – so either of the front passengers could control the car.

Ferrari joins the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Pageant

Ferrari joins the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Pageant Ferrari joins the Diamond Jubilee Pageant at Windsor castle and are bringing the 4th Mounted Carabinieri Regiment with them. With all things Diamond Jubilee filling the social scene (at least this side of London 2012) for the summer, even car makers are getting in on the act. We’ve already had Bentley deliver a Diamond jubilee Mulsanne as their version of a commemorative tea towel, and now Ferrari is chucking its hat in the Diamond Jubilee ring.

Jaguar F-Type Coupe grabs a Super Bowl Spot

The Jaguar F-Type Coupe grabs a Super Bowl Spot The Jaguar F-Type Coupe is heading for a reveal at the Los Angeles and Tokyo Motor Shows this month, and Jaguar are already thinking big as they start to plot how to get the new F-Type Coupe in front of potential buyers. So they’ve grabbed a 30 second advert slot in next year’s televised Super Bowl in the US, which is guaranteed to get the new F-Type Coupe front and centre in potential buyers’ minds in the States. Playing on the predilection for Hollywood to use British actors as the villain, Jaguar’s F-Type Coupe campaign will have a ‘British Villians’ theme and pose the question: “Have you ever noticed how in Hollywood movies, all the villains are played by Brits?” Featuring ‘Renowned British Actors’ (yes, your guess is as good as ours) and launching the hashtag #GoodToBeBad , the new advert is being filmed by Brit Director Tom Hopper in London.
