Updated Mercedes G Class UK prices announced

Mercedes-Benz has revealed prices for the updated 2012 Mercedes G Class, which starts at £82,954 and rises to £123,115. The word ‘Icon’ is bandied around for any car that’s survived the test of time (guilty as charged), but few are really iconic. The Mercedes G Class is one of the exceptions.

New Porsche Panamera GTS takes to the track (video)

New Porsche Panamera GTS takes to the track The new Porsche Panamera GTS is the latest Panamera variant to arrive – the ninth Panamera, no less – and is, as all Porsche GTS models are, a harder-edged take on the more mainstream variants. With its naturally aspirated 4.8 litre V8 producing 425bhp, and pushing those horses through a PDK ‘box to all four wheels, the Panamera can scoot to 62mph in a very respectable 4.5 seconds on its way to a top speed of 179mph. Not bad for a big saloon car that eschews forced induction and can carry proper-sized passengers in comfort.

Skoda Yeti UK Prices

Skoda has released UK prices and specifications for the Yeti The Skoda Yeti is a much better bet than the recently announced Skoda Fabia Scout – a butched-up Estate with two wheel drive – as it is the real deal, with proper four-wheel drive and the ability to actually do at least a decent amount of soft-roading and, in all probability, make a decent fist of some rougher stuff too. Admittedly, to keep headline prices low, there are two-wheel drive versions too, and these are the bargain priced ones – starting from £13,750 – but you”ll have to pay a fair chunk more to get a full 4×4 – prices on the Skoda Yeti 4×4 start at £17,170 for the 2.0 litre TDi Yeti S. Even the entry-level Yeti E comes with Aircon and remote locking, and the extras add up as you go through the range.
