First official picture of the Audi A5 Sportback (click image for a bigger version) This time it’s Audi’s turn, with the first official picture of the soon to be revealed Audi A5 Sportback. And it’s such a shock – we’d never have guessed this is how it would look!

Aston Martin V12 Zagato production debut in Kuwait

Aston Martin V12 Zagato production debut in Kuwait The production ready version of the Aston Martin V12 Zagato we first saw at Villa D’Este will be unveiled at the Kuwait Concours d’Elegance in February.
