Renault have recently officially released the details of their latest limited edition Megane RS 250 Grand Prix model. The French auto manufacturer pays homage to the Monaco GP circuit with this luxurious award winning Megane that is reflected in its looks and drive.
Renault has packed the hatch with a 2.0-litre turbocharged four producing 246 horsepower and 251 lb/ft of torque. Other features include a panoramic glass roof, 19-inch alloys, red Brembo brake calipers and bi-xenon headlights. The interior shows off a black-and-white leather trim with white accents on the center console, dash-strip, and door handles. The Pearlescent White paint, in which the car is currently only available, reflects its exclusive status.
Unfortunately the limited edition hatch is only available for the Australian market.
Justin Hocevar, Managing Director Renault Australia has stated that “this incredibly luxurious version of the Mégane R.S. 250 will appeal to lovers of hot hatches who don’t want to compromise on their everyday creature comforts.”
How do Ferrari do it? Just when you thought they’ve lost the plot and given up making cars that I want to have as a poster on my wall, they come up with this. The convertible version of the already ridiculously good looking 458 Italia. Prepare to bite your knuckles.
Ever looked at a VW Polo and thought, “Hmmm, that thing is just far too large. I wish Volkswagen made something much smaller.” No? Me neither. But if tiny cars are your thing, you’re in luck, as VW has confirmed that new up! (yes, lower case and exclamation mark are part of the model name) will be on sale in Europe by the end of the year.

For far too long the American market has enjoyed Toyota’s retro 4×4, which to be perfectly honest is the only Jeep-like vehicle that has caught my attention in a long time. Sensing that perhaps South Africans might be interested in a solid offroad vehicle with great street-cred, they’ve just launched it here. Yesterday in fact. We’ve got all the details and pictures here:
Having already expressed a desire to build a vehicle that has a 1960s Microbus style, Volkswagen has gone ahead and done just that with the Bulli concept. The new vehicle concept was recently shown at the Geneva Auto Show as a part of its Heritage series.
The Lincoln MKZ model has been on the market since 2005 and is now making a comeback, sporting a new look. The concept version of the new Lincoln MKZ is said to characterize an ‘evolutionary redesign’ which will retain its original front and all-wheel design.
If you are among those who missed out on driving a Bugatti Veyron Super Sport earlier, here’s a second chance. Derbyshire-based car dealer Tom Hartley has one in his possession and the model is up for sale for a price of $3.43 million. This particular model however, differs from others manufactured.
We know that all you Toyota enthusiasts have been waiting eagerly for the unveiling of the new 2012 Camry in the US in a few days. The vehicle has been revealed by a French-Canadian magazine which gave a clear picture of the new sedan and its specifications.
