Video: the first Ferrari FF crash!


Ouch! I guess it had to happen. With 660bhp pulsing through the rear wheels of the new Marmite Ferrari FF, it was probably only a matter of time before someone's luck ran out.

And it's all been caught on camera. Say hello to Car Magazine's Jethro Bovingdon as he says hello to a kerb in the new FF. What follows is an F-Bomb explosion after the first Ferrari FF crash ever...

Coiled for action!

Before...


... and after

So, our TotallyMotor Alfa Romeo 146 project car is finally ready to attack the bends rolling hard 'n' fast on her new Cobra Suspension lowering springs.

Fitted with ease and lowering and flattening the little Italian with subtle style; we're pleased as punch with the results. Read the full story on our quest for sorted stance and sharper cornering with Cobra Suspension lowering springs - is it time for some extra spring in your step?!

Geneva Motor Show, 2011 - the best bits


You'd probably be hard pushed to pick a favourite new car or concept from the vast and packed halls of the 2011 Geneva Motor Show; the biggest the event has been for some years, now that we're peeking out of the recession. But if you had to pick a favourite, what would it be?

In part 1 of our TotallyMotor round-up we've got some supercar show-stars like the curvy Ferrari FF, the razor-sharp Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 and the supercar-looking, £40k bargain Alfa Romeo 4C. Any of these tickle your fancy?

My own personal favourite comes along in our next round-up chunk, however. It's the 'new Celica' from Toyota; the FT-86II. A front-engine, rear-driving, lightweight coupe like they used to make back in the day.

This MkII concept is getting pretty close to the production car look, and I think it's pretty fab. Can't wait to see what the aftermarket industry does with it when it eventually hits the city streets in 2012. Lots of carbon, big turbo and big rims for a start.

New Lambo? And the rest - Geneva 2011 is smokin!

So we've seen the vicious new Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 and the beautiful blue bombshell Jaguar XKR-S - just a couple of the highlights from the 2011 Geneva Motor Show.

And what about that quattro-esque
Audi A3 saloon concept? Just delicious. And then there's the dreamy Ferrari FF, and, not forgetting the 'new Celica', Toyota's FT-86 II concept that's nearly a reality. Recession? What recession - let's have a petrol-powered party!
