1970s supercars

Thu, 10 Jul 2008

By Tim Pollard and Ben Oliver 10 July 2008 16:02 Supercars in the Seventies Lamborghini continued to define the supercar in the ’70s, building on the success of the dramatic Miura with the brutal and startling silhouette of the Countach. But Lambo’s nemesis Ferrari was never far behind, and the two Italian thoroughbreds dominated the market, with a succession of beautiful supercars throughout the decade. Despite the threat of the global oil crisis, the Germans started to muscle in on supercar territory with the rare BMW M1 and Porsche's upstart sports car, the 911 Turbo.Browse our GBU-style pick of the decade's landmarks below – and vote for your favourite supercar decade in our poll Make and model Year Price Engine 0-60mph Top speed 1973  £14,610   4390cc flat 12, 360bhp, 311lb ft   5.4sec  175mph For   Pininfarina's styling set the look for Ferraris until well  into the 1980s   Against   Ferrari's answer to the Miura arrived seven years late Verdict   A seminal Ferrari for styling and engineering, too often overlooked   Ferrari's first mid-engined V12 was good enough to stay in production for nine years, bridging the huge gap between the Sixties Daytona and the Testarossa of the Eighties Related Articles:    Other Ferrari stories    Make and model Year Price Engine 0-60mph Top speed Porsche 911 Turbo  1974 £14,749 2994cc flat six, 260bhp, 253lb ft 6.0sec 155mph For   The car that took the 911 into supercar territory; a legend was born Against   Everything you've heard about the handling of early cars is an  understatement.

Upgraded Mazda MX-5 hits the UK

Thu, 12 Feb 2009

[ad#ad-1] Back in December we brought you news of the updates to the Japanese MX-5 – The Mazda Roadster – and as expected they’ve now filtered through for UK Cars, with the first cars appearing in showrooms in April. The MX-5 has, quite rightly, dominated the little, open sports car market for ever. It does so much so very right, and so little wrong, it is an example of how to dominate a niche.

Fiat 500 gets 3-star safety rating from NHTSA

Fri, 09 Dec 2011

The slow-selling 2012 Fiat 500 now has another obstacle in its sales path: It has been tagged by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration with a three-star safety rating, the lowest of any new model tested so far. The two-door subcompact received four stars from NHTSA for frontal crash and rollover accidents but received just two stars for side-impact crash safety, the agency announced on its Web site, safercar.gov. The tests gave the car a combined overall safety rating of three stars, NHTSA reported.
