Infiniti M Saloon teased

This is the 'tease' for the Infiniti M Saloon But now Infiniti are ramping up interest in the next generation Infiniti M Saloon (which we haven’t had in Europe so far – think Lexus LS by Nissan) by releasing the teaser image you see here.

There is no word yet on the powertrain for the Infiniti M, but the Infiniti Essence Concept was said to sport a V6 lump coupled to an electric motor giving the equivalent of 590bhp.

The catch?

Rowan Atkinson’s McLaren F1 cost nearly £1 million to fix

Rowan Atkinson pranged his McLaren F1 in 2011 in Cambridgeshire and now, after a repair bill of £910,00, it’s back. We all know what a petrolhead Black Adder and Mr Bean actor Rowan Atkinson is, and most of the car world knows he owns a McLaren F1, and that he had a nasty accident in it in 2011. Rowan lost control of his F1 in damp and unpleasant conditions on the A605 near Peterborough and ended up going backwards in to a tree.
