Chris Evans’ LaFerrari charity drives at Top Gear track (video)

The LaFerrari of Chris Evans at the Top Gear Track There are two sorts of car collectors in the world, those who buy rare and classic cars as investments that are kept locked away in climate-controlled garages, and those who use them and, in rare cases, share them. Chris Evans definitely falls in to the latter camp. As the first UK owner of the LaFerrari supercar, Chris Evans has added Maranello’s latest and finest to a car collection that ranges from the sublime to the even more sublime.

BMW X7 SUV confirmed to top BMW’s X Range

The BMW X5 Plug-in Hybrid will be built at Spartanburg along with the new BMW X7 The idea for BMW to build an SUV bigger than the X5 was put on ice when the world’s economy went in to meltdown in 2008, but the idea of a range-topping BMW X7 was back on the cards as long ago as 2010. Now, four years on, BMW has confirmed that they are planning an X7, that it will be built at their Spartanburg Plant in South Carolina and that it will arrive in 2017 or 2018. BMW aren’t prepared to divulge what platform the X7 will use, but it looks likely it will arrive on a revised version of the platform used for the next generation BMW 7-Series, a platform that will likely also be utilised for the new Rolls Royce SUV when that arrives, with the announcement of the X7 making a Rolls Royce SUV even more likely.

Smart Forspeed Concept reveled

Smart Forspeed Concept - and the electric bike and scooter that will make production You’ve got to wonder if Smart is just a game for Mercedes.

Last year in the UK Smart sales were down nearly 9% at a time you would expect sales of eco-focused small cars to boom.
