aston martin v12 zagato

hi guys
i was reading a top gear magazine and saw this and i thought i should probbably do a review on it as it is an aston after all

as you would expect this car isn't ugly quite the oposite but isn't as good as previous astons like the db9 or the dbs but it does still look great.this car is really a racer but has been fiddled around with to make it a road car and there is still evidence that it is really still a racer like the exhaust pipes the windows and the whole rear of the car

this isn't slow either but at £330,000 you wouldn't expect it to be either and will do 193mph though i would expect it to be quicker as it is will cost you alot and the 0-60 isn't that impressive either it will do it in 4.2 secs but if they didn't work on speed with this car it must handle excellently also with astons handling reputation it should and also being part racer in a sieries which needs a good handling car so this should handle brilliantly but unfortunately i can't tell you my self because i haven't driven it nor anyone else really

this car won't go on sale till the summer of 2012 but if anyone does wan't to spend this much they will be cheered up when they hear it's awesome sound

so really this car is a v12 vantage with a new body but i would say this is better because it just looks more extreme but the one i would buy given the cash would be the vantage because in the zagato you don't get all the luxuarys like leather seats, radio cd player and i could go on for ever so the reality is this is a over priced v12 vantage which thinks it is a racer

i couldn't find any good videos of the v12 zagato but here is a video of that awesome sound so make sure your speakers are turned up

thanks for reading

lamborghini gallardo LP570-4 superleggera

hi guys
this is the new lamborghini gallardo superleggera this car has been out for a while now but i thought as it is a new lambo we are on about i should do a review any way

this new lambo is more powerful, lighter and alot quicker than the old model this is the ultimate gallardo and like all lambos this looks great and will do 0-60 in 3.8 seconds and will carry on to 196 miles per hour but one of my favourite things with this car is the engine cover more cars should have a see through engine cover. though the price will make a dent in your bank account because at £150,000 this new lambo doesn't come cheap 
                                                                               

handling
the handling is meant to be great but it is meant to have a clumsy feel to the brakes although i can't tell you the truth because again i haven't driven it and it is meant to corner well too.

conclusion
well this is a great car but if i had that much money to spend on a car i would save up and buy the mclaren mp4-12c but i still thing this sis a great car anyway

pagani huyara

hi guys
this is the new pagani huyara which will replace the car which made pagani what it is now and that car is the zonda

i don't quite know when this will go on sale in the u.k. but i hope soon because this car looks awesome an should be good to drive too and will go pretty quickly too i am geussing at least

the thing i don't get is pagani showed us the pics and the design of the car but still haven't put it in to production yet it's crazy but as long as they get it right at the end i don't really care

one of the most unusual things with this car among with the design is the key instead of a conventional key pagani have decide to make there keys miniature aluminium models of the car with a key inside


the huyara is set to lauch in 2012 and is also set to sell at £1.3 million so your chance of getting one is slim as most people don't have £1.3million to spend on cars

i still can't find the full specs on the engine so i can't tell you the power or the top speed of this awesome car

mclaren mp4-12c

hi guys
again this car has been out for a while but as it is such a good car i think everyone should know about it so here is my review

mclaren may have named it terribly as the name sounds like a fax machine name but it doesn't stop this car from being an excellent car

this car has been being built for ages and now it is finally here we forgive mclaren for taking so long they have been building this scince they pulled the mclaren f1 out of production



The rivals
mclaren made this car to compete with the Ferrari 458 Italia so they made it a tiny bit better in pretty much every measurable way. apart from one place which is looks but you can't measure that and the mp4-12c still looks great just not quite as good as the Ferrari

The handling
this car is meant to handle great and again i can't tell                                                          the stats    
 you the truth as i haven't actually driven it but reports                                                       price: £160,000
 and other reviews suggest that it handles like a dream                                                      top speed: 205mph
 it takes you where you want to go and doesn't                                                                 power: 592bhp
produce much over or understeer and the brakes are                                                        weight: 1336kg
also meant to be incredible too                                                                                         0-62: 3.3 secs


The speed
this car is incredibly quick it is quicker in a straight line than the 458 Italia the ford gt and much much more so this car isn't slow it is quite the opposite

mclaren f1 or mclaren mp4-12c
well it depends if you want the speed and the history of the f1 or the looks, safety cornering of the mp4-12c but i think i would probably choose the mp4-12c as it is 5 times cheaper than the f1

Peugeot concept

hi guys
here is a new Peugeot concept it is called the Peugeot ex1
sadly this exotic car won't be built but here is my verdict though.

this car is awesomely cool the seat is attached to the door so you get int the door and the door slides out so you can get in. the steering wheel looks like the designer took it straight from a star wars spaceship and it has no roof what so ever and it must hold the record for the worlds flattest car and the whole car looks like the batmoblie

the downsides
it is electric! Peugeot make a great concept car and then they ruin it with a electric engine i know it is meant to be better for the environment but why make it at all if you want to help the environment

conclusion
there is no point of this car what os ever or at least i cant see any point it could be a great concept and it could change the worlds cars but then they stick a electric engine in it
it's crazy!

Ferrari ff

the Ferrari ff has been out for a while now but but i thought i should do a review because if you say to someone Ferrari ff they won't have a clue what your on about so here is my review

the Ferrari ff is Ferrari's first ever 4 wheel drive car. they built as a quick 4 seater which can handle tough conditions like snow and ice and they wanted it to be comfortable on long journeys.

The handling
i haven't actually driven this so i don't know the true handling results. the new car has Ferrari's first ever four wheel drive system and it weighs 50% less than a conventional four wheel drive system this weight loss creates almost perfect weight distribution with only 53% over the rear axle. the car now has a set of new brembo brakes which are meant to be incredibly good

would one buy one?
maybe if you had enough money but as it will probbably sell at £229,000 most people won't be buying this. 

                                                                                     price:229,652 
                                                                                     horespower:  651 bhp
                                                                                     top speed: 208 mph
                                                                                     0-62: 3.7
                                                                                     looks(my personal view: 3 stars

ferrari 458

hi guys 
you have probably already heard about this car and and therefore probably already no quite a bit about it but hear is my opinion


This is Ferrari's latest mid engined supercar. It is less than the Ferrari 599 GTB fiorano but it looks so much better and i expect is so much better to drive than the 599 GTB Fiorano and unfortunately i haven't driven either to tell you which is the best.


The handling
as i said earlier i haven't driven it, but reviews suggest that this handles brilliantly people say the handling is so incredibly precise and it just takes you exactly where you want to go


Conclusion 
the Ferrari 458 is the stuff dreams are made of. it's luxurious for an all-out sports car. It's not as brutal as the v12 Ferrari 599 HGTE but in my opinion it is every bit as good




the stats:                                                                                                                                               how much?    £170,000
power            562 BHP
0-62              3.4 secs
weight            1485 kg
top speed       202 mph
mpg               21.2 miles 
looks (my personal view) 5 stars
