This year’s Geneva Motor Show will see the debut of something rather special from Land Rover, something we haven’t seen since the 70s. It’s called theRange Rover SV Coupe, and it’s a two-door version of the full-size luxury SUV featuring a “seductive” design and an ultra-refined interior. They have only released a photo of the interior so far, but that is enough to make us long for this Range Rover SV Coupe. The original Range Rover launched in the 1970 as a two-door model, but that form kind of went away, featured only on a version of the Evoque. The SV, though, it’s not a downsized Range Rover or anything pathetic. It’s full-size, they say, and it’s going to blow you way with its sexin...

There is no question that Wald body kits are among the most extreme one can find for any given make of car. But you may want to think twice before mixing that kit with an equally showy set of rims, because the end result could be way too startling. That, we reckon, is the case with this uniqueWald Rolls-Royce Dawn built in Japan, for Japan. This car is so wrong on so many levels, it almost becomes right again. The first issue with it, of course, is the fact one should not mess with the styling of a Roller. These cars are meant to be bespoke, personalized works of art and should be enjoyed as they are. Then there is the styling of the aftermarket kit itself, which has elements in its more...

Good news for the fans of big, luxurious, over-the-top coupes. The all-newBMW 8 Series Coupe is very close to production now as the Bavarian company dispatches prototypes to race tracks for dynamic testing. This thing, by the looks of things, is going to give the AMG 63 and Bentley Continental GT a good run for their money. We only get to see the overall shape of theBMW 8 Series Coupe in this teaser, but they have included a good deal of pure exhaust noise. The 8 Coupe, as they call it, sounds a lot dirtier than most M cars of recent years, and that’s great. And as for the looks, it’s not like we don’t know what the 8er is going to be like. After all, we have seen this big boy with the C...

It is said that the loudest thing you hear in a Rolls-Royce is the ticking of the bespoke clock. That ought to make it a perfect place to record music, apparently. That’s what they’ve been up to lately, lending a new 2018Rolls-Royce Phantom to British rapper Skepta to record a song in. Not only does this latest publicity stunt put the quietness of the car in perspective, it also promotes what kind of clientele Rolls-Royce is after these days. Gone are the days when only the exceedingly refined aristocracy drove this make of automobile, or rather were driven in. These days the real money is in the hands of artists like Skepta, or rather these are the wealthy ones with an insatiable d...

Novitec’s division in charge of upgrading Rolls-Royce automobiles, as you may know, is called SPOFEC. They have just come up with a new model which has the most apt name ever given to a tuner car.SPOFEC Rolls-Royce Dawn Overdose is exactly ...

These days it is rare to find a high-performance V8 engine even in sports cars and luxury saloons. And yet for some reason Mercedes-Benz offers them in a mid-size SUV. That makes theMercedes-AMG GLC 63 a bit of a unico. We’re not sure who...

One of the coolest things about buying a Rolls-Royce is the treatment they give you, from the first stages of choosing the specs and trims to the actual handover of the vehicle. That is why we don’t get the point of the online configurator they have launched for the new2018 Rolls-Royce Phantom....

Though one would have expected more changes after being in the works for twelve years or so, the new 2018Rolls-Royce Phantom is improved over the previous model substantially enough so as not leave much room for complaints. The ultimate luxury saloon gets a new chassis, a better engine, and a m...

You may have heard about Rolls-Royce’s Great Eight Phantoms exhibition set to go liveat Bonhams from 29 July to the 2 August.This exhibition is going to feature some amazing cars such as Field Marshal Montgomery’s Phantom and now this, the wonderfully crazy John Leon Phantom V. The legendar...

At this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed Rolls-Royce is going to introduce a new line of Black Badge models “beyond measurable limitations,” whatever that means. The car trusted with accomplishing this monumental task is the newRolls-Royce Dawn Black Badge, an open-top luxury cruiser with a lo...

Swedish skier Jon Olsson is more famous for his outrageous cars than anything else, and the latest addition to his collection is only going to to add to bolster that fame. It’s a one-of-a-kindRolls-Royce Wraith fitted with some truly amazing kits and options. While Rolls-Royce purists will no...

Some may say this is putting lipstick on a pig – and a fat one at that – but if we’re honest this new cosmetic treatment for the big GLE does make things better styling-wise. The 2017Mercedes GLE Coupe OrangeArt Editionis basically a Night Package car gaished with some orange accents. On th...

A car dealer must have a helluva lot of prestige for Rolls-Royce to accept a one-off commission from them.H.R. Owen has that kind of cred, and so when they approached the Goodwood-based luxury maker they were only too happy to make the super specialRolls-Royce Dawn Mayfair Edition for them. ...

When the designer were trying to come up withPrior Design Mercedes C-Class Coupe body kit, we suspect, they thought about what Megan Fox would look like in a lingerie, because the result is just as hot! This is hands down one of the best looking car...

Wide body kit fans in Europe and America have different go to tuners when they feel their standard cars are a bit too narrow. In America the flared wheel arch enthusiasts have Liberty Walk, while in Europe the authority in this segment is Prior Design. Here we take a closer look at one of their finer products, the PD650 based on the BMW 6-Series Gran Coupe. Built by PP-Performance, this Prior Design BMW 650 Gran Coupe has all the goodies a hard-core wide body kit fan would want on his or her car. It’s got the swollen wheel arches and the accompanying sills, it’s got the aero parts including front and rear spoiler, diffuser, tale wing and extra air ducts, and it’s got the suspension and ...

One thing Rolls-Royce is not short of is special editions and one-offs. They have made so many of the stuff, it now takes a lot to stand out. The car either needs some really dope options or a absolutely unique paint work with a cool name. That is why Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe Golden Age is worth featuring. This black and tan model is a special commission for Rolls-Royce Abu Dhabi and it comes in a two-tone Black with Arizona Sun on the exterior, and black leather with tan accents and dark aluminum trims inside the cabin. The interior seems a little too sober frankly, but that exterior is one of the most unique we have ever seen on any Roller ever. The fact that Rolls-Royce Pha...

If there was an award for the best dealership name, Aristocrat Motors Mercedes-Benz would have definitely won it on account of being magnificently apt. True to their name, these guys aren’t satisfied with the ‘standard,’ which is why they have commissioned a RENNtech Mercedes S550 Coupe to that American tuner of German origin. The RENNtech Mercedes S550 Coupe, like most other RENNtech cars, is more about substance than aesthetics. In fact, the only visual gaish this car features is a set of Deep Monolite 10 wheels in sizes 21″ x 9.0″ on the front and 22″ x 10.5″ on the rear axle with a Brushed Aluminum finish. Of course, the subject here being an S-Class Coupe, the wheels are enough to ...

When you decide to get your Mercedes GLE Coupe a body kit as massive and elaborate as TopCar’s Infeo package, chances are you not going to leave the interior stock. That is why the Russian tuner offers a host of upgrades for the cabin designed to help you personalize every last detail. We have already shown you what an extreme, crocodile-infested TopCar Mercedes GLE Coupe interior package looks like. Now let’s check out a somewhat mellower treatment where the only animal killed for its preparation is a flock of cows (because there’s plenty of leather in there). This Mercedes GLE Coupe interior kit consists mainly of fine leather upholstery for the seats complete with intricate designs a...

We have already shown you the exquisite Wald BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe in the official press photos released by the Japanese tuner. But since Wald’s products are among the few tuner cars that actually look better in the flesh than in the heavily edited press material we need to have another look at the car. What’s interesting about Wald body kits is that in the preview photos and studio pictures they usually look overly ostentatious and rather vulgar. But as you can see here with this Wald BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe out in the real world, under the natural light of the sun, the thing actually looks pretty decent. Granted, it’s not exactly understated and discreet, but it’s not too showoff-y,...
