Irish rally driving (and swearing) gone bananasI normally leave all automotive-related material to my only-in-spanish blog Autoblog.com.es, but this is first of all beyond racing, and secondly and above all an evergrowing string of swearwords of such proportions that make the English language sound like it has as many as the Spanish. Not really the case, but the Irish sure can drop some serious bombs. Ok and on top of that it has some nice rally footage. |

The meaning of VeyronA skeptical Chris Harris from Autocar Magazine comes to certain conclusions after testing and going flat out in a Bugatti Veyron. Unbelievable speedometer live action included. I have been looking for a video or article that gets the essential point about the Veyron across shortly and effectively. The fact that, for several reasons, it is the most remarkable engineering achievement in the auto industry. In the literal sense of the superlative. What’s most incredible is how all the test drivers are left with a feeling of dissapointment by realizing that they are never going to feel anything like it again. As Jeremy Clarkson put it last year “it’s not only the best automobile ever built in history, it is also the best car we will ever see in our lifetimes”. |

2006 Honda CivicThe once-radical Japo whose latest generations were as exciting as unseasoned spaguetti seems to go back in the right lane Yep, I’m blogging about cars here. I think we need a new category. Anyway. These spy shots show a good attempt by Honda to retrieve originality in the design of their best seller. Original in the “different from the rest” sense, not like “same as the first generations”. Becasue actually this new Civic doesn’t look like any other Civic before (Link1, Link2), and while I appreciate the new risks (you have to be careful with putting the wheels so near the ends in a car that wants to look sporty), there won’t be anything like the ’83, ’87 and ’91 generations. Click on more to see photos of all of them and in the links above for even more. |
