Top Gear have just reviewed Mercedes latest new car to add to the GL line-up.  The biggest yet, the GLS.  With the GLS 63 AMG heading the line-up.

Expect to be available from March 2016 in the UK and pricing around the $140k mark.

Review here.

If you think an Aston One-77, Ferrari F50, Lexus LFA, Mercedes SLR, Porsche Carrera GT or a Maserati MC12 are fast, then beware.  The new Audi RS6 (with optional performance pack) – could smoke them at the lights!  That’s according to Top Gear’s latest review.  The ‘Performance pack‘ upgrade yields 600bhp and 3.7-second 0-62mph time.  Pretty impressive.

Another feature that made me giggle was [...]

Here are some photos of one of the 10 Aston Martin DB10s built for the new James Bond film.  8 crashed, 2 survived.  This one had a few marks but otherwise OK.  Nice car.

An ‘everyday supercar’ according to the latest Top Gear Review.  Stunning in our opinion.  What do you think?

BMW are teasing the upcoming launch of the M2 on October 14th.

The power output is 365 horsepower and 343 lb-ft of torque. The engine has an overboost function just like the 1M, good for 25 lb-ft of torque…
At launch only 4 colours will be available: Long Beach Blue, Alpine White, Mineral Grey and Black Sapphire”.
