Audi creates Carbon Ski design

Audi has recently teamed up with Head to produce these lightweight skis. Far from being the first manufacturer to dabble with downhill equipment, Audi claims that its expertise in motorsport has resulted in a ski that is significantly lighter than its nearest competitor.

Subaru WRX concept stars at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show

The Subaru WRX concept starring here at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show is striking to say the least – it’s like someone has driven the Japanese firm’s BRZ sports car into the back of an old Impreza WRX STi performance saloon.

Chancellor to ‘freeze fuel duty’ until 2015?

But this is conditional on the treasury finding the funds to cover it.
