Vauxhall ADAM Black Edition and ADAM White Edition – ‘Smartphone on Wheels’

Vauxhall ADAM Black Edition and ADAM White Edition – 250 being built It’s no secret that Vauxhall want the ADAM to be as individual as possible, despite its rather generic appearance, so apart from a plethora of customisation options Vauxhall will be churning out regular limited editions – just like MINI and the Fiat 500. The latest limited editions are the Vauxhall ADAM Black Edition and ADAM White Edition which, say Vauxhall, offer even more levels of personalisation and takes many design cues from the Smartphone. That’s because, as Vauxhall claim, the ADAM is the best connected small car in its segment and the ADAM White and ADAM Black come with IntelliLink infotainment system and Siri eyes free as standard with controls in black or white with brushed aluminium accents, just like a typical smartphone.

Mini Paceman John Cooper Works (2013): first pictures

Here we have the answer to the question: 'what would a high-riding Mini coupe-cum-SUV four-seater hot hatch look like?' Granted, it's not a question many have asked, but that hasn't stopped Mini bringing us the Paceman John Cooper Works: all 215bhp of it. Is this the fastest Mini Paceman yet? As you'd expect, the JCW Paceman sits atop the range, thanks to its 215bhp 1.6-litre turbocharged engine.

Driven: Chevrolet Orlando

Chevrolet recently launched the new Orlando crossover in the UK market. The seven passenger vehicle – which eschews a conventional monovolume MPV package in favor of a more bulky, upright one that aims to fill the same need – will be sold in the North American market as well as in Europe. Cloaked in crossover skin, the Orlando is not to be taken lightly.
