Rolls Royce at the Paris motor show 2008

Rolls Royce at the Paris motor show By Mark Walton Motor Shows 03 October 2008 16:11 Nothing much happening at the Rolls Royce stand at Paris. There are three cars lined up: the enormous Phantom (still the Daddy); the vast Drophead (with its yacht-style rear decking); and the gargantuan two-door Coupe(launched at Geneva earlier this year).

Caparo T1 – Race Extreme Version and new options

The Caparo T1 Race Extreme Version gets 620bhp [ad#ad-1] We talk a lot about extreme versions of road cars. By any measure the Lamborhini Murcielago LP670-4 SV is extreme, and the Koenigsegg CCXR Edition even more so. Brutal almost, with performance that you will rarely, if ever, be able to use to the full on public roads.

AC Cobra Mk VI to show at Monaco

AC is due to show the AC Cobra MK VI at the Top Marques Show in Monaco Despite being a UK car maker, AC is to build the new Cobra MK VI in Germany, at Gullwing GmbH, which gives a clue to the car’s unique feature – a removable hard top with gullwing doors. The AC Cobra has a long history, and is one of the most sought after replica cars on the market (which is hardly surprising considering the cost of an original Cobra), and is said to be single handedly responsible for the UK’s national 70mph speed limit, which was brought in after some extremely high-speed incidents on the new M1, where AC was testing its cars. Why bother with a test track when you have 100 miles of fresh, straight tarmac courtesy of H.M.
