Vauxhall / Opel Adam spied undisguised

The GM rival for the MINI and Fiat 500 – the Vauxhall and Opel Adam – has been caught undisguised on a photo shoot in Spain.

BAC Mono for sale: The only brand new Mono for sale…in the World

That’s because the BAC Mono is not just a stunning car to drive with its 2.3 litre 4-cylinder Cosworth engine delivering 280bhp in a car that weighs so little it gets a power to weight ratio of 520bhp per tonne, and can get to 62mph in a scant 2.8 seconds, and comes with a great spec. The Mono is built using carbon fibre composite wrapped round a steel safety cell, an FIA compliant steel rollover structure, an F3-spec 6-speed sequential ‘box, pushrod suspension, racing damping, AP brakes and special tryes from Khumo. And it’s properly bolted together too, unlike many track-focused cars.
