New 2012 Volvo V40: Photo leaks ahead of Geneva debut

The new Volvo V40 leaks ahead of a Geneva debut We have the first photo of the new Volvo V40 – leaked from a Swedish Car Magazine –  ahead of its debut at the Geneva Motor Show.

Aston Martin CC100 open 2 seater on the way

Aston Martin has revealed it is to build a limited run of two exclusive CC100 Roadsters to celebrate its centenary year.
