Renault FRENDZY Concept off to Frankfurt

The bi-polar Renault Frendzy Concept Nothing floats Renault’s boat quite as much as a pile of batteries attached to an electric motor. Unless it’s an off-the-wall concept heading for a motor show. Put the two together and you have a Renault designer’s wet dream.

Mercedes previews technology before Frankfurt auto show

VW Scirocco GTS launches – but not in UK

There’s a new Scirocco available across Europe from this month – the VW Scirocco GTS – but it’s not coming to the UK. The GTS is more of a trim level than a stand-alone model and you can grab it with a variety of engines – 1.4 litre TSI, 2.0 litre TSI and 2.0 litre TDI – as the GTS trim just adds cosmetic tweaks to the Scirocco and nothing in the way of power or performance upgrades. Those cosmetic tweaks amount to  thumping great black stripes up the bonnet bordered by thinner red stripes (which all continues over the top and down the back of the GTS), red covers for the door mirrors, 18″ alloys, a spoiler at the back (nicked from the Scirocco R) and a more butch back bumper with diffuser.
