Mercedes SLK car review

Mercedes has improved its looks, inside and out.

Mercedes SLK Open is now on sale, 12 years after the car was first launched in the UK, with its innovative and much-copied metal, folding roof – and it is a fantastic addition to our roads.

Most of that power is delivered between 2,800 and 5,000rpm making slotting through its excellent six speed manual gearbox a pleasure, however, most buyers are expected to specify the automatic ‘box.

2008 Seat Ibiza car review

our first view of the Seat Ibiza was not bathed in brilliant Baleriac sunshine but against a backdrop of gloomy skies and a sprinkling of persistent, light rain.

Each feature of the SEAT Ibiza a good specification level with standard features including ESP, hill hold control, six speaker CD/radio and height and reach adjustable steering wheel.

Stylance upgrades the trim significantly to add body-coloured door handles, foglamps, air-conditioning, cruise control, leather steering wheel and gearknob, and trip computer.

Kylie minogue and her Audi A8 extras..... I should be so lucky!

Other features Kylie may have opted for on the £100,000 saloon include 20-inch alloys which cost £1,500 while massaging and ventilating front and rear seats would set the songstress back £3,700.

I'm gonna take a seat in the Audi Q7 4X4, or the Q7 4X4?

Interesting title I know.. but so is the Q7 4X4 better known as the Audi Q7 4X4.

It's in a world of its own, the Q7 4X4 Power is harnessed by a six-speed semi-automatic gearbox and Audi’s Quattro four-wheel-drive system. Racing developed brakes which are made from ceramic instead of steel and should provide huge stopping power.

Outside, the Audi is finished in a ‘pearl effect’ white hue which Audi claims has more depth than normal paint and is reminiscent of ice.

The huge Audi front grille and smaller side intake slots are finished in ‘high gloss’ steel and the wheelarches are wider than those fitted to the regular Audi Q7.

Inside, the changes are more drastic and yacht themed. Every surface has been finished in bright white, including the carpet, roof lining, pillar trim, leather seat upholstery, steering wheel, door trim, seatbelts and even the dashboard and switches

Take a seat in the SEAT Ibiza

There's a lot to get excited about with the new Seat Ibiza. It's been designed by an ex-Lamborghini man and features the Volkswagen Group's all-new supermini chassis, which Seat has dubbed Active Chassis.

The front has also undergone a substantial redesign which has resulted in a more contemporary, serious look, but after a day’s driving and viewing Seat’s promotional videos it is the rear which impressed most and perfectly complements a substantial change for Seat’s biggest selling car.

The other most significant development has been the introduction of a new chassis due to be introduced across the VW Group.

And while the exterior design lends the car a smarter, more modern appearance it is the “agile” chassis, combined with increased body stiffness (though the car is now about 50g lighter) which contributes significantly to the Seat Ibiza’s more grown-up feel with improved handling giving greater confidence in corners.

Seat has created a more driver-focussed dash which is also fairly minimalist with large amounts of neatly-fitting decent-quality plastics dominating the view from the passenger side.

Is the Seat Leon Ecomotive ultra-efficient?

That's a good question ...... and the last time I check I found that the SEAT Leon Ecomotive is ultra efficient.

Seat launched its first production Green car, the Seat Ibiza last year, and has applied the same technology to its five-door family hatchback to create the Seat Leon Ecomotive.

Electricity, bioethanol and hydrogen are just three of the alternative fuel sources manufacturers are developing as an alternative to the big two energy sources – diesel and petrol.

But some car makers believe there is life in the old combustion engine yet and that increasing efficiencies in conjunction with other measures, can form the basis for pleasurable, economical and environmentally-friendly motoring.

Last year the Volkswagen Polo Bluemotion was launched amid a fanfare of publicity heralding its impressively frugal fuel consumption – quickly followed by a Golf model, and we can also expect to see the Ford Focus Econetic advance environmentally-friendly motoring for Britain’s best-selling car.

Is the Seat Alhambra MPV a good family car?

I've been talking to a lot people looking for a good family car.... and they seem to keep asking me whether the Seat Alhambra MPV is a good family car....... and I'll say yes it is!

If you're looking for glamour... or you are a bachelor or a single lady looking to attract the opposite sex or partner if you may :) then I wouldn't recommend this car to you as its not gonna give you what you're looking for. But if you're looking for a car that has loads of space, reliable, reasonable running costs, ride and handling and you have a family then the Alhambra MPV would make a good choice!
