New Aston Martin Vanquish Configurator now live

The online configurator for the new (2013) Aston Martin Vanquish has now gone live on Aston Martin’s web site.

So if you’ve got a spare half an hour at work today (or even if you haven’t) you can go to Aston Martin’s website and play with the configurator for the new Vanquish to your heart’s content.

50 Jaguar E-Types in convoy through London

Unless you’ve been in Motoring purdah for the whole of 2011, you’ll know that this year is the 50th anniversary of the debut of the Jaguar E-Type at the Geneva Motor Show in 1961, and Jaguar are making the most of the anniversary at every step. But this time it’s not Jaguar who are making the most of the E-Type’s birthday, it’s the organisers of the 2011 Motorexpo in Canary Wharf, who’ve teamed up with the Jaguar’s Driving Club to drive fifty E-Types across London and out to Canary Wharf to kick of this year’s show.
