2009 Ford KA – Verdict

Cars UK [rating:4.0] Ford KA - The Verdict The original Ford KA was a hard act to follow – despite its age and the fact it was based on an even more ancient Fiesta underpinnings – and conspired to look fresh and contemporary right to the end.

If we were running round a City on an everyday basis we would have to look hard to find anything better as an everyday drive.

McLaren P1 Track confirmed as McLaren Automotive goes in to profit

McLaren made an operating profit in 2013 of £12.4 million (and a pre-tax of £4.4 million) on sales of £284.4 million and did so – as predicted – by hitting their sales targets – McLaren sold 1359 12Cs and 36 of the McLaren P1 hypercar. And that looks to be just the start.

Seat at the Paris motor show 2008

By Ben Whitworth Motor Shows 02 October 2008 15:12 Seat wheeled out its feisty new Ibiza Cupra – all 180bhp of it – and followed it up by its new old A4-based Exeo, and topped off its show with its ultra-clean Ibiza Ecomotive.  Penned by ex-Lamborghini designer Luc Donkerwolcke, the Cupra is the first Ibiza that we’ve really warmed to. On its chunky 17-inch alloys, aggressive body kit and go-faster details, it looks far closer to the Bocanegra concept we saw in Geneva at the start of the year. And that’s a good thing.
