The Name Game: Why the next Buick will be called the Verano

Verano means “summer” in Spanish, though it could easily be a type of coffee or even a brand of crystal.

Buick could have gone with an alpha-numeric designation, or even dipped into its heritage for a storied moniker from the past.

Starting Out: Interview Techniques

Brief and firm and with eye contact: your handshake is the first contact you make in an interview, so it is vital to get it right. Project a limp wrist and the chance of work slips.

Mercedes S65 AMG (2013) first official pictures

By Ollie Kew First Official Pictures 08 November 2013 08:01 Bring on the ‘too much is never enough’ comments: this is the new Mercedes S65 AMG – the top dog of the S-class range. Set to be more than twice as expensive as an entry-level S350 BlueTec, which starts at £62k, the S65 AMG borrows its powerplant from the SL65 AMG, and comes close to embarrassing the SLS supercar in a drag race. Whereas the new S63 makes do with a piffling 5.5-litre biturbo V8 developing 577bhp, the S65 squeezes in a twin-blown V12 good for 621bhp – that’s only one horse fewer than the Mercedes SLS Black Series manages.
