2012 Ford Mondeo Titanium: The fastest ever Mondeo

2012 Ford Mondeo Titanium - the quickest ever Mondeo If you want an illustration of how quickly things are changing in the car world when it comes to the relationship between power and economy, you could do worse than look at the 2012 Ford Mondeo Titanium. The new Mondeo Titanium and Titanium S offer two options of power from their 2.0 litre Ecoboost lump, either a 200bhp version or a 237bhp one. And with a manual ‘box the 237bhp version becomes the fastest Mondeo Ford has ever built.

Breitling commemorate ISR with new timepiece

Bentley's collaboration with timepiece creator Breitling is a well-established one, which stretches back years. The latest coming together between the luxury brands is in commemoration of Juha Kankkunen's world-record-breaking jaunt on the frozen Baltic Sea, off the coast of Finland. Earlier this year, four-time World Rally Champion Kankkunen piloted the biofueled Supersports convertible to a – frankly incredible – top speed of 205.48mph off the coast of Finland.

Europe’s economic problems sees UK become biggest Ferrari market in Europe

The Ferrari F12 (pictured) helped Ferrari to strong profits in the first half of 2013 The economic crisis in the Eurozone has seen Ferrari’s sales in countries like Italy and Spain plummet, and Greece managed just one sale in 2012 (and even that came to the UK). But Ferrari have a plan to keep profitability by limiting supply and achieving stronger revenues for the sale they do make – with stuff like Ferrari’s bespoke Atelier and Tailor Made services and Classiche work adding more revenue – to keep them powering forward, and it seems to be working despite poor sales in many European countries. In fact, despite an increase of just 2.8 per cent in volume, Ferrari has managed to increase their profits in the first six months of 2013 by an impressive 20 per cent, with total sales of 3,767 and net profits of €1.22 million.
