Audi Sport Quattro concept to wow Frankfurt Motor Show 2013

Audi will reveal a stunning Sport Quattro concept car at the Frankfurt Motor Show 2013 – the spiritual successor to the brilliant 1980s Audi Sport Quattro. With a 700hp V8 hybrid drivetrain capable of 189mph AND 113mpg, it really is a legend reborn for modern times. Audi is debuting the Sport Quattro concept in Frankfurt 30 years after the original Sport Quattro was shown at the very same show.

So what exactly does it cost to service a McLaren MP4-12C?

McLaren MP4-12C - almost affordable servicing With the McLaren MP4-12C now in the wild, and some of the first cars getting towards their first service, we thought we ought to have a look at what the new McLaren will cost to maintain. For a variety of reasons, today has been about chatting to a number of McLaren MP4-12C owners (more on that another day) and one chap who’s bought a 458 Italia instead of McLaren because the servicing is free. Yes, in case you didn’t know, Ferrari now throw in free, unlimited mileage servicing for 7 years on the 458 (and all new Ferraris), and it’s transferable to subsequent owners too.
