New Mercedes S 63 AMG costs from £119,565

New Mercedes S 63 AMG (pictured) costs from £119,565 The arrival of the new Mercedes S-Class in May saw MB move their range topper on properly for the first time in almost a decade, but with UK prices staring from £62,650 for the S 350 BlueTEC it wasn’t going to be on most people’s shopping list. And if you can’t afford Mercedes’ entry-level S-Class there’s no hope of affording the new S63 AMG, which Mercedes has revealed will cost an eye-watering £120k when it arrives in the UK in November. To be entirely fair, the new S63 is an awesome car with immense performance (which would be even more impressive if Mercedes endowed it with 4WD, as they do in other markets) with its 5.5 litre bi-turbo V8 developing 577bhp and getting the S63 to 62mph in 4.4 seconds.

First Sight: Citroën C4

 The Citroen C4 is a new car that shall be formally unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in September as the replacement for the Xsara that has been quietly competing in the European C-class for six years. The C4 was previewed in Geneva with the C4 Sport (a WRX themed concept car based very closely on the production 3-door C4) and less directly with the C6 Lignage Citroen concept car of Geneva 1999 which introduced many of the new car's exterior and interior design themes on a larger vehicle concept. Sitting between the C3 and C5 in Citroen's range, the C4 platform will also be shared by Citroen's partner Peugeot for the 307 replacement.

2013 Ford Mondeo leaks from iPad app

The 2013 Ford Mondeo leaks The 2013 Ford Mondeo – or, more accurately, the 2013 Ford Fusion in the US – has appeared on an iPhone app ahead of a reveal at the Detroit Motor Show. It may not actually be the 2013 Ford Mondeo – it is in fact the 2013 Ford Fusion in the US – but, apart from a few subtle changes, the Fusion that’s made an appearance on a Ford iPhone app is the car Europe will get as the new Mondeo. The 2013 Fusion is due to be revealed in all its glory at the Detroit Motor Show tomorrow (9/1/12), and Ford released an iPad app that counted down the days until the Fusion was due to put in an appearance.
