Up the M1
BMW's M1 is back! Well, sort of. A concept study has been revealed called the M1 Hommage, which has split the TG office down the middle.

Life preserver
Friend of soldiers everywhere, the Viking is the most enjoyable off-roader out there. It swims! It climbs! It repels rocket grenades! We want one.

Fire fighter
Aren't Australians brilliant? You can always count on them to make mad stuff, like the world's most powerful two-wheeler, the 3,800bhp Jet Bike.

Vauxhall has given the Tigra a soft-topped hard-top roof. It sounds pointless doesn't it? Cos it is. (We're still not sure whether this is a joke.)

Batman returns
A year or so ago we saw this SpadaConcept and filed it under 'This Will Never Get Made'. But they're actually going to make it. No really, they are. Really.

BMW M3 Convertible
'I was outside the pub when a man stopped next to the M3 with his girlfriend, talking very animatedly in Scandawegian. He'd been talking about the new gearbox all day'.
