Ford Cortina: 50 years ago today…

Ford are celebrating 50 years since the first Ford Cortina was launched and changed the car landscape forever. The Ford Cortina went on to sell an impressive 4.3 million during its twenty year life, eventually turning in to the Ford Sierra and then in to the Ford family car of today – the 2013 Ford Mondeo (which, interestingly, can be had with the 1.0 litre EcoBoost engine – smaller even than the 1200cc of that first Cortina). That first Cortina was the start of Ford’s dominance of the UK car market, leading to an unbroken run of 35 years as the best selling car brand with most of the Cortinas, almost 3 million of them, built at Dagenham – in the days Ford actually built cars here.

Subaru BRZ: The Video

Subaru BRZ Video With the Subaru BRZ officially debuting at this week’s Toyota Motor Show, Subaru has released a video of the BRZ on the move. It’s hard not to feel a bit let down by the Subaru BRZ. Perhaps the quote attributed to Subaru that the BRZ would get ‘less than 300bhp’ was lost in translation, but the fact the BRZ comes with just three horses more than its cousin the Toyota FT-86 just leaves a feeling of disappointment.

Range Rover (2012) first official pictures

At last, the all new Range Rover is revealed, with no camo-tape! The new Rangie is 420kg lighter, more eco-friendly, and even more opulent than the outstandingly successful current car. These are the first official pictures of the new Range Rover: you can see it for yourself in the metal at the Paris motor show from 29 September 2012 The styling of the new Range Rover Although the profile looks similar, there's actually been much tweaking of the proportion of metal to glasshouse. Also, you'll spot lots of detail changes to the new Range Rover to set it apart from the current car.
