2013 Audi A6 Allroad unveiled

2013 Audi A6 Allroad revealed Audi are busy showing off the new A4 Allroad at the Detroit Auto Show, but this morning they have revealed its big brother – the 2013 Audi A6 Allroad in Germany. Audi has only just launched the 2012 A4 Allroad – which is on show at the Detroit Auto Show as we write – but they’ve already got its big brother ready to show – the 2013 Audi A6 Allroad. Audi has taken the usual Allroad recipe for the A6 by taking the basics of the A6 Avant and making it rufty-tufy and ready for the urban jungle.

Driven: a week with a Chevrolet Volt

In Fall 2010, before the Volt went on sale in North America, we sampled an early build model and came away so impressed, we declared it the car for the digital age. Since then the car has received harsh criticism from the press and been outsold by the Nissan Leaf in the North American market. Given the unique powertrain, we felt longer exposure to the Volt was therefore in order, so on a recent trip to Michigan, we lived with one for five days.

Warren Golf & Country Club Classic & Supercar event this weekend

There are plenty of supercar and classic car shows up and down the UK to keep petrolheads (and their families) fed with a regular dose of adrenalin and high-octane thrills, but it’s always nice to report on a new one, especially a new one that offers the promise of something worth making the effort for. The Warren Golf & Country Club, which nestles on the Warren Estate in Woodham Mortimer – far from the white stilettos and tangoed complexions of the more chavvy parts of Essex – has its first ever classic and supercar show event this Saturday (4th May 2013) and they’ve made a pretty good fist of putting an appealing array of goodies together. Max Chilton, a relatively new entrant in the F1 world, will be there together with his Marussia F1 car, as will be the entire Le Mans Jaguar XJR Team thanks to local specialists JD Classics.
