Having revealed some of his astonishing car collection to the world on last Sunday’s Top Gear (even letting James May drive his Ferrari 250 GT California), Chris Evans must have decided that he needed to surpass himself……so he went to the shops in the conspicuous Italian hypercar you see above. He’s difficult to make out behind the dark windscreen, but that’s definitely Chris Evans driving his (presumably recently purchased) Maserati MC12 up there.
One of the most eagerly anticipated vehicles to be revealed at Geneva was the Bentley EXP 9 F. What the Crewe-based manufacturer showed us was an SUV concept that shocked many and made others feel queasy.
A bold (and far from beautiful) concept, the EXP 9 F is powered by a 6.0-litre W12. On the outside, it looks like no other Bentley on sale. The gargantuan grill and huge headlights go some way in showing just how big this SUV is. Though on first glance it is perhaps vulgar and garish, there is a lot to like. Bentley’s head of interior design, Robin Page, tells us that the details are some of the finest to date offering the customer anything they want to personalise their car.
Under new plans from the Government Transport Department Motorway speed limits are set to rise from 70mph to 80 mph. I personally think this is a good thing as the old speed limit is out dated, in fact I think it should be nearer 100mph.
