Lexus RX 450h SE-L Review & Road Test (2010) Part 2

Lexus RX 450h Review Part 2 Until January owners of the RX450h can drive through the London Congestion Zone free of charge.

Bentley 6¾ litre V8 to end production – Diesels & Hybrid on the way

Bentley’s outgoing boss has revealed Bentley are planning to drop their trademark 6¾ litre V8 and introduce hybrid and diesel options.
