Mitsubishi Evo X to get awesome double-clutch gearbox

Rolls Royce Sponsors Michael Jackson Funeral!

Land Rover Encino 'Product Placed' Rolls Royce and Range Rovers at the Jackson Funeral Jackson was undoubtedly a musical genius, if somewhat flawed as a man.

Ford B-MAX off to a strong start in UK

The new Ford B-Max compact people carrier is off to a strong sales start in the UK, with 1,000 already delivered to customers. And that eye-catching advert (we’ve posted it below – Ford in Europe need all the help they can get to garner sales!) will no doubt raise awareness of the long-awaited replacement for the old Fiesta-based Fusion MPV and help make the B-Max a success for Ford in a segment they once dominated, but which they’d left to wither on the vine.
