stephenstewart's Articles in Automotive Show All|Display Category|Title|Newest|Oldest Deals with the Devil – Analysing Dubious Selling Practices within the Auto Industry OK it might be an idea to say right from the outset that this article is not purely an exercise in just bashing car salesmen. I have nothing against many car salesmen personally it's not my role to cast opinions on them for doing their job. I am merely just concerned that at certain times they tend to be slightly zealous possibly in some of the practices that they carry out. Now we all think that it's important to say is that sales or the activity of selling is absolutely vital to the economy and society that we live within today. In fact there is certain validity in the argument that it is potentially the most important part of the business cycle. Slicker and Quicker – The New Audi A4 It would appear if you asked most Motor journalists at the moment that new models from Audi would appear to be arriving by the bucket load.

We have decided to do a comparison test on three of the latest and fashionable of today's hatchbacks. Rover M1 – The Lost Miniature Marvel The British motor industry has had a history that has possibly had several common themes running down through it. Firstly a reputation for technical innovation and secondly more sadly a reputation for the commercial in the ability to take advantage of aforesaid technical innovation. A Brief History of the Porsche Motor Company Ferdinand Porsche played an important role in the development of airplanes and racing cars, and the construction of tanks for the Wehrmacht. He is an automobile engineer with more than a thousand patents to his name. He was appointed chief engineer at Mercedes-Benz in Stuttgart in the 1920s. Later on, he set up his own engineering workshop and designed among others the Volkswagen. At the plant where Volkswagen was made, Wolfsburg, he was chief of operations and at the end of the war he was interned by the Allies.He was released a few years later and started building his first car with his son, Ferry Porsche. The car was named the Porsche 356 and it was a sports car and a reminiscent of the Volkswagen. It had the same four-cylinder boxer engine that was rear-mounted, just like the VW. It was far from being a powerful sports car, developing only 40 bhp and a maximum speed of 87 mph (140 km/h). First produced as a convertible and later as a hard top it distinguished by the very elegant and innovative body. It was developed in theworkshop of Erwin Komenda, a master of restrained streamlining who had been in charge of sheet metal and design techniques at Porsche since the VW Beetle. The new stle of closed coupe was designed by Komenda and it soon became the embodiment of the sports car, thanks to its fastback. Where Cheaper Cars Can be More Expensive We have all seen the adverts. The ones that say £500 off this car today, £600 off dealer discount for that car for the next 10 days and in a lot of cases these discount reduction in prices can very well be true. In fact the majority of them must be true as we have this little thing called the Advertising Standards Act and the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) which is a slightly better known organisation that takes people and organisations to court and prosecutes them whenever they publish misleading advertisements. Lighter Sharper Range Rovers on the Horizon The Range Rover, that iconic automobile and synonymous with the Barbour jacket and green Wellington boot brigade is apparently pencilled in for a revamp.

Hardly a day goes by without, us members of the general public being exposed to one photographic horror story after another about carnage on our roads.

Porsche 911 GT3 – Is this the Ultimate in Extreme Road Racing The Porsche 911 GT3 has been described as brilliance to spare, the problem is with a machine of this capability is thatl there isn’t anywhere within the United Kingdom road network that you would be able to legitimately take advantage of its raw unsurpassed power. Citroen and BMW Top Safety Study It would appear that in a study published recently by Auto Express Magazine and Euro NCAP that Citroen and BMW make some of the safest cars on the road.
