Koenigsegg Agera R hits 250mph at Nurburgring The incredible Koenigsegg Agera R has hit a top speed of 249.54mph at a private event at the Nurburgring and we have it on video. We have a huge hankering for the cars that Christian von Koenigsegg produces, and none more so than the Koenigsegg Agera R. Koenigsegg has endowed the 2012 Agera R with a raft of improvements to make what was already a massively impressive car even more so.

Porsche Panamera UK prices announced

Porsche Panamera - UK prices announced [ad#ad-1] Finally, the long, drawn-out saga of the Porsche Panamera’s gestation from concept, to spy shot, to tease, to reveal is over, with Porsche releasing the UK prices for the Panamera today, and the first UK Cars being delivered in September. Prices start at £72,266 for the Panamera S (which gets the 4.8 V8), £77,269 for the Panamera 4S (which also gets the V8 but with 4WD) and £95,298 for the range-topping Panamera Turbo. Still to come, although not until next year, is the Diesel, and the year after the Hybrid.

2014 Subaru XV – less choice, more refinement

The 2014 Subaru XV (pictured) gets a bit of a tweak The Subaru XV arrived in the UK in 2012, and it’s a perfectly able and reasonably-priced compact crossover from Subaru. But within a year of launching the XV Subaru decided to inject a bit more appeal in to the XV with a price cut of £2,300 across the range and now, not more than six months later, they’re fiddling with the XV range again. The 2.0 litre petrol XV gets new valve-train components to cut engine noise and revised suspension, with extra soundproofing improving NVH levels across the range, a revised power steering system for added stability and feel  and thicker and reshaped suspension lower arm and extra reinforcement around the base of the A-Pillar for better crash performance.
