Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo is a good looking Panamera: Paris 2012

Porsche has revealed their estate / shooting brake take on the Panamera – the Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo – and it looks good. No longer does the Panamera have a dog shagging back end, it’s now sleek and swooping. The front end gets a slicker makeover too – which probably gives us a taste of the Panamera facelift to come – and the whole car looks cohesive and appealing.

Mercedes CLA Shooting Brake on the way

Mercedes’ design boss Gordon Wagener has revealed to WhatCar that they are planning to go exactly the same route with the CLA as they did with the CLS, and create a coupe estate. The CLS Shooting Brake (pictured below) has been very well received, and with much of the world downsizing its cars a CLA Estate is a very sensible way to go, offering all the good design elements of the CLA – which already looks like a CLS on a boil wash – in a car that has more practicality. Wagener gave no idea of time scale for the CLA Shooting Brake, but with the first CLAs expected to hit customers in June it wouldn’t be a surprise to see a concept CLA Shooting Brake arrive by the time of the Frankfurt Motor Show in September before going on sale in 2014.

Audi A1 – Finally

Audi finally release details of their new 'Mini' - The Audi A1 We said only yesterday that we weren’t going to run another story on the new Audi A1 until we got some proper meat. Audi has dragged out the reveal of the A1 – from original concept 2 years ago to the endless recent teases – so much we just felt there was nothing more worth saying. But now there is after Audi decided enough was enough and has given us some proper information and photos of the A1.
