The Manx Norton
By Mick Walker

The Manx Norton is the most famous of all British racing motorcycles. It is linked with the legendary heroes of the sport, Jimmie Guthrie, Harold Daniell, Geoff Duke, John Surtees, Mike Hailwood and the age when Britain had the world’s finest motorcycle industry.

This definitive history traces the design, development, the leading riders and tuners, and contains a superb collection of photographs, many previously unpublished. The Manx Norton covers not only the Manx itself but also features boardroom battles; Norton’s early history; recording breaking; sidecars; Formula 3 cars; scrabling (moto-cross); the Domiracer; racing at Daytona and today’s classic scene.

Updated: Lexus LF-LC Concept

Wed, 04 Jan 2012

The Lexus LF-LC concept – a four-seat coupe that will make its debut at the NAIAS in Detroit – has been further unveiled in these latest shots. Designed in Toyota's Catly studio in Newport Beach, California, the show car appears to develop Lexus' L-Finesse design language, while retaining familiar features such as the huge grille first seen on the LF-Gh concept and subsequent GS sedan production car. The upward flick of the windowline into the C-pillar is also reminiscent of the flagship LFA.

2012 Toyota Land Cruiser V8 costs £62,285

Wed, 18 Jan 2012

2012 Toyota Land Cruiser V8 costs £62,285 The 2012 Toyota Land Cruiser V8 comes as a single model with a 4.5-litre V8 turbodiesel and big spec and costs £62,285. We reported at the end of December that the 2012 Toyota Land Cruiser V8 was going to debut on 12th January at the Brussels Motor Show and, following that debut, we now learn Toyota will be wanting a not inconsiderable £62,285 for the Land Cruiser V8 in the UK. Which is a lot of money, even for for a big off-roader, but then the V8 Land Cruiser is a lot of vehicle and, in its new 2012 iteration, it offers a lot of value for money.
