Twingo Renaultsport 133 & Clio Renaultsport 200 ‘Silverstone GP’ Limited Editions launched

Renaultsport Twingo & Clio 'Silverstone GP' - just 50 of each available ‘Now what moniker can we hang on the back of a Renaultsport Twingo and Renaultsport Clio to get our British customers to part with their hard-earned?’, the man from Renault was heard to say. ‘I know’, he said, ‘Silverstone will be in the news next week – all shiny and new and quick. That’ll do – we’ve only got 50 of each with that left-over paint to flog.’ And so we get treated to a Limited Edition of just 50 cars each of the Twingo Renaultsport 133 ‘Silverstone GP’ Limited Edition and the  Clio Renaultsport 200 ‘Silverstone GP’ Limited Edition.

Audi A1 1.4 TFSI (2010) first picture

This new Audi A1 might have a long and convoluted name – it's the A1 1.4 TFSI (136 kW) – but it's not an Audi S1 by another name. While everyone has been expecting a hot version of the A1 to be unveiled at next week's Paris motor show (and this is it), it's not dubbed S1 because there's an even hotter version of the A1 still to come. Meanwhile, this first tuned and tweaked version of the A1 uses the same engine as the VW Polo GTI, Skoda Fabia vRS and Seat Ibiza Cupra.
