Hey there! :) Welcome to Tduck! If you need any help, you're in the wrong place! :cheeky: Just kiddin' :hello:

Audi E-Tron Quattro Concept: 310 mile range, and a 429hp 95 kwh battery back. Supposedly a production version of this is one of the high priorities at VAG atm. It looks slightly too big to be a Q5 size, and slightly too small and too close to the new Q7 to be that, so what niche/gap is it meant to fill? Is it a new model line specifically for Electric vehicles or will be it be 10% smaller in production form and replace the Q5? All I know is this is a good looking vehicle, I wish Audi's designers had bothered to get of of bed when they designed the Q7. VW Tiguan: This is a ridiculously giant leap from the previous Tiguan, it looks stylish and its proportions just seem to work, even in the lower spec cars it seems like a fairly desirable small SUV. The lack of ground clearance makes this look like an VW Golf on steroids, but that doesn't seem like too bad a thing. Bugatti Vision Gran Turismo Concept: This thing looks different enough from the Veyron to probably give us some idea as to what the next bugatti will look like, if not maybe just a few design cues at least. Good to see they've built it rather than just show us a CAD mock up, does it actually run? I don't think it does which is a shame as it sure would be a collectors item 40-50 years down the line. Lamborghini Huracan LP610-4 Spyder: This looks :drool: It seems as if if it was designed/engineered to work as a Spyder from the get-go, but the delay inbetween the hardtop and the spyder being released makes me question if it was, i dunno. I love that colour blue too :drool: Jaguar F-Pace <font size="5"><font size="2"> I love everything about this jag other than its name.... It looks great. Rear visibility looks hilarious. I hope it's got a bit of driving dynamics to go with its looks. All images are from Jalopnik - Drive Free or Die

It has potential to be a stunner in production form, but it's a rather ugly concept car imo. --- Post Updated --- Porsche Mission E Source 600hp electric 4 door car, So basically a tesla model S rival. Range is 310 miles supposedly, and it's meant to be able to get 250 miles worth of charge in just 15 mins (whether this is real tech i dunno) I hope this is what the panamera replacement will look like :)

Maybe you should remember your plan to move out first :nods:

This also means you'll also need to get rid of your User Title thing Scott :cheeky:

The Bentayga will most likely do very well as a result of Bentley being ahead of the game with that niche, Rolls/Maserati etc are nowhere near production. In a more conservative colour it'll be better for sure. Not sure i like the front bumper design bentley are putting on their cars. I'd still much rather have a Mulsanne tho. It's important that the Bentayga has many differences to its cousins the new Q7 and the next Cayenne and Touareg.

2016 Porsche 911 Carrera (S).... TURBO? Images from Jalopnik - Carrera and Carrera S are now Twin-Turbocharged - Drop in displacement to 3.0 litre - Increase in power by 20hp and 40lb-ft of torque over the previous versions, revs less. - The current GT3's rear wheel steering will be an option on the Carrera S. - Manual Gearbox still offered. Aesthetically, the changes are fairly harmless. I'm confident it'll still be a great driving car, but that's where the real changes will be found I guess.

I Just Lost $25,500 On My Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 And I Couldnt Be Happier Really cool read over on Jalopnik from Tavarish.

That VW Tiguan looks amazing, the old one has been awful ever since it went on sale but those spy shots are promising for the new one.

The design already looks a bit dated.... oh dear. I'm sure the performance figures and the whole economics of the thing will make it a success, but the aesthetics and those wing doors are a bit naff. :yawn:

This?

Very similar to Tata and Jag/Land Rover in a way. Shame they've not got keeping jobs in the UK as high a priority as if it were british owned, but it's been very good for the company. Have the chinese made any promises regarding keeping things in sweden etc?

That looks fab! The headlight design looks very similar to the upgraded headlights found on the Audi A6 :hmmm: A very overdue update though

Went to a classic car show last weekend, awful photos are awful and at awful angles because i wasn't in the mood to take photos:

Putting the new S vert next to that classic merc just highlights how busy/cluttered the interior of the new one is. It's a stunning interior but i'd still rather have the understated brilliance of the old design.

Can you back that statement up? It seems weird that a company simply wouldn't want to increase its market share/profits. You know more about :yawn: lexus than I do so i'm sure you're right but it seems crazy.

The Jag XE looks very elegant in certain specs, especially in person. Metallic paint + decent but not overly in your face/large rims can make what most people think is bland, into a fairly elegant design.

Yeah the camry isn't too bad, with a car as well-selling as that driving dynamics and sportiness aren't a priority, looks / interior quality / reliability / mpg / emissions are. They seem to be going in the right direction to offer most of that in a fairly exciting looking package.

Dutch news channels really need to focus on bigger issues if prius MPG woes are broadcast nationally :cheeky:

The current gen prius looks very dated and the 1st gen prius looks way older than it actually is, although this thing is absolutely awful looking it does make it look much more contemporary so I guess in some ways it is an improvement over the current design. Still wouldn't want one though, it surprises me just how low MPG the first and 2nd gen prius' actually get in comparison to the hype and awe surrounding the vehicle. Of course back then, mixed with the emissions and construction technique it is still a pioneer in it's genre of vehicle but renault's 1.5 DCI engine has been capable of getting above 60mpg for god knows how many years and that's just one example, no one heralds a renault driver they just heckle them. It's just a fashion accessory.

I actually really like the white wall on the tyres, if any modern car suits it it's probably this.

DB9 replacement (DB11?) development mule spotted on the 'ring. Sounds good, looks quick and quite agile by the way it went in those gates at the end haha. Good to hear the sound of that V12 still around, stunning looks + v12 + new technology + modern lightweight chassis is exactly what AM needs. I think looks will be everything with this car, AM's are never the fastest/most agile/most modern/most luxurious, they're just a good mix of everything. Though with the Lotus engineer moving to AM, Andy Palmer from Nissan, and the partnership with Merc things are definitely looking up for AM.

Yahhhh, I was worried I'd have to delete all the history thing/passwords and it'd be a pain in the derriere, but now it's showing :nods: Thanks D.

Tried force refresh and it didn't work, this is on Firefox, just checked on Chrome and it's showing fine.
