Concept Car of the Week: Mercury El Gato (1970)

Of all the brands that marked American automobile history, Mercury had never been the most popular or the most loved, which ultimately led to its demise in 2011 when Ford chose to terminate the brand. To be fair only a handful of Mercury models are worth remembering: the 1950 Mercury Eight iconic base for custom cars, the 1955 Montclair, the Mustang-based Cougar, the Marauder X-100, the evil Cyclone Spoiler. However one of their coolest creations is fairly unknown mostly due its short concept car life: El Gato, in Spanish translating as "The Cat".

Peugeot Adds Estate To Acclaimed 308 Range

FRENCH car maker Peugeot had released details of its new medium-size estate, the 308 SW, which should start hitting showrooms in June. Hoping to build on the success of its recently launched 308 hatchback, the SW promises the same level of standard equipment, Peugeot’s newfound bold approach to exterior design and wallet-friendly petrol and diesel engines. Prices will start from £16,895 for the entry-level 110 horsepower 1.2-litre petrol model, while engine stop-start, both manual and automatic gearboxes will be offered along with selected engines dipping to 85g/km CO2.

Bentley SUV will be the Bentley Falcon

It looks like Bentley has come up with a name for its SUV – Bentley Falcon - and, as expected, it will get a complete redesign before it arrives. But it now seems that VW has bitten the bullet on the Bentley SUV and signed it off for production, when it will apparently come complete with a new Bentley name – Bentley Falcon. The news of a name for Bentley’s luxury off-roader comes from Georg Kacher writing in Automobile Magazine and, although it perhaps doesn’t resonate particularly in the UK, it will probably have more impact on the target market for the SUV – the Middle East – where the Falcon is a big deal.
