It’s the BMW 7-Series ‘Horse Edition’ to celebrate China’s Year of the Horse

The BMW 7-Series Horse Edition (pictured) heading for the 2014 Beijing Motor Show China is a huge car market for premium brand, so with the Beijing Motor Show on the way we’ll no doubt be seeing a raft of China Specials revealed as car makers seek to appeal to China’s still deep-pocketed buyers. Cars like the Ferrari 458 Italia China Special Edition, Audi R8 China Edition, Porsche 911 Turbo S China 10th Anniversary Edition and Aston Martin’s ‘Dragon 88′ special editions of the DBS Volante, Virage Coupe and V8 Vantage S Coupe are just a few of the China Specials Western car makers have bolted together to tempt the Chinese to part with their cash. Now we have another with the BMW 7-Series Horse Edition, which might sound like a special edition Land Rover Discovery but which is in fact a titivated 7-Series to celebrate the Year of the Horse.

Audi E1 e-Tron in the Potsdamer Platz Did Clive Sinclair get in to bed with Audi? Are the progeny of Fend Flitzer lurking in the bowels of Audi Towers? We ask because the latest Audi e-Tron Concept (the Audi E1, perhaps?) which rolled out of the back of a van in the Potsdamer Platz looks for all the world like the result of a mating between a Messerschmitt and a Sinclair C5.
