New service! Buy a single issue of CAR online

CAR this month trials a new service letting you buy a single issue of CAR Magazine via the website – at the same price you’d pay in a shop. Previously you’ve only been able to take out an annual subscription to the printed magazine online, but we’re testing a new, more flexible system to see if there’s demand to buy single issues. Wherever you see the special McLaren button below, you can click through to a simple form listing your postage details and payment options.

Lotus Exige LF1 Limited Edition – one for every Lotus F1 victory

Lotus Exige LF1 Limited Edition – one for every Lotus F1 victory It’s a nice idea to build a limited edition car – the Lotus Exige LF1 – to celebrate very one of the 81 victories Lotus has enjoyed in F1, but it does make you wonder if Lotus has done it because they’re never likely to win again (and if they do, do they produce another LF1?). Still, Lotus has pulled out the icon JPS livery for the Lotus Exige S (from the days cigarettes could be advertised) to give the LF1 a pretty paint job of black and gold (with added red bits) including a black and gold Lotus badge up front and a contrast stitched interior with F1 logos on the seats. Also interesting is that each car will receive a plaque commemorating each individual victory, from the 1960 win at Monaco with Stirling Moss behind the wheel to the last in Australia in 2013 with Kimi Raikkonen.
