New 2013 Nissan Note gets more appealing

The new Nissan Note has turned in to a Ford Fiesta basher as Nissan turn the Note from a boring little MPV in to a convincing small hatch. We did think the Invitation would be watered down to produce a slightly titivated new Note for production, but much of the style has found its way through in to the new Note – which we first saw in the JDM Nissan Note last summer – and the Note now looks set to take on proper compact hatches like the Ford Fiesta. The nose of the new Note is now more convincing – with new headlights and grill – and the doors get a great big feature crease that looks like a giant smoothing iron has stamped its mark, although Nissan say it’s a ‘Squash Line’  whose ‘angles were inspired by the flight of a fast moving squash ball travelling around a court’.

Mercedes E-Class Coupe – It’s official

The new Mercedes Benz E-Class Coupe. So, goodbye CLK and hello E-Class Coupe (and very soon it will be goodbye Mercedes CL and hello, Mercedes S-Class Coupe as well). The E-Class Coupe will officially launch at Geneva next month, and as you would expect, it is a subtle and understated car (until we see the E63AMG Coupe!).
