Jaguar and me: an Italian reader's Jag romance

After that experience I had to learn as much as possible about Jaguar, how they were built and the whole history. After many years and passion, my interest in Jaguar is unchanged and today I have <a href="http://www.jaguar-mania.com" target="_blank">my own website</a> fan site dedicated to Jaguar. I love Jaguar because each model is the result of the passion of men and women interested in cars – they're made from the heart, they're art in motion.

Fiat dual-clutch transmissions are planned for North American products

During the next five years, Chrysler Group's powertrain lineup will be transformed from one dominated by larger-displacement engines to one dominated by Fiat-derived four-cylinder engines, V6s and, eventually, electric vehicles.

The company also will launch its new Pentastar V6 engine on the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee in the second quarter next year, said Paolo Ferrero, Chrysler's powertrain chief.

Seat celebrates 60 years of production

SPANISH car maker Seat has this week celebrated its 60th anniversary, releasing pictures dating back to its very first model, the 1400. Six decades have now passed since the first 1400 rolled off the production line, when the brand new company was inundated with 10,000 orders following the end of petrol rationing in Spain. With so much production demand Seat was able to drop the initial price of 121,875 to a more reasonable 117,000 pesetas, or what would have been about £590 at the time.
