Rolls-Royce Ghost V-Spec (2014) first official pictures

By Ollie Kew First Official Pictures 08 January 2014 14:00 The Rolls-Royce Ghost V-spec has been unveiled as the brand’s new performance model.

Lamborghini Super Trofeo race car reset for street duty

Lamborghini has taken the version of the Gallardo it builds for the single-make Super Trofeo racing series and re-engineered it for street duty to create the Gallardo LP 570-4 Blancpain Edition.

It also gets the race car's tall rear wing, rear engine cover, composite ceramic brake discs and extensive use of carbon fiber.
