The picture below is of the new 300 bhp Audi TT Clubsport which was recent taken in Germany. I have to say it looks a lot nicer and more aggressive than the previous roadster Audi TT which looked like a bubble car lol. The engine is the same 2.0 liter turbocharged motor that powers the Audi S3 and is of course 4 wheel drive.

The Aston Martin used in the new James Bond film Quantum Of Solace has been crashed into the Italian Lake Garda. The British sports car was being delivered to the movie set in heavy rain when the driver lost control around a tight corner and the Aston Martin DBS ploughed off the road and into the lake.

A 93 year old man in Penarth has crashed his Ford Fiesta into a Porsche Carrera 2 and a 911 outside a showroom. Its been all over thi internet today so I won't bore you repeating what everyone else has already said, but looking at the pictures the old dude didn't just crash into them he flipped his little Ford into the two Porsche's.

Just got emailed a few pictures of the 2008 model of the stunning Porsche 911 GT2 and thought I'd share the images with you all. I won't bore you ith all the details about the car though just look at the thing it looks mean and purposefully fast (although still like a squashed beetle lol).

Wasn't exactly sure what category to put this one in, cars or videos! I don't know lol. But I do know that this is an awesome video of a lap around Le Mans on-board a Porsche 936 painted in the legendary Martini colours. Porsche were racing this car around the French motor racing circuit in 1977 and even by todays standards it look stunningly fast and gives you a real sense of the speeds and potential danger involved (especially from the slower Porsche 911's) of driving around Le Mans.

Ok so everyone knows I absolutely adore the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione, we'll now I think the Italian car maker Alfa Romeo has just given me something else to fall in love with the 8C Spider. Losing the roof hasn't harmed it at all, still looks absolutely stunning, actually I'll stick my neck out and say I prefer it to the hardtop version!

Ok seriously unlikely but being slightly ill and not getting out that much this weekend I've had plenty of time to spare just drooling over the gorgeous Aston Martin V8 Vantage. As beautiful as it is I'm fully aware that it highly unlikely that I'll ever be able to own what I think it one of the best looking cars in production at the moment. Actually apart from its bigger brother the DB9 and that Alfa 8C Competizione I can't think of anything in the same kind of league (feel free to comment that I'm wrong and have over looked other cars, I don't mind being proved wrong).

Couldn't find the original article anywhere but I swear I read it a week ago and it said Playboys Car Of The Year 2008 is the Audi R8. God knows how playboy came to the conclusion that its the car of 2008 when its only just began but we'll let them off because of hot sexy girls and expensive fast sports cars go together perfectly. Not 100% sure why the Audi R8 as the Playboy car of the year though as it still looks a bit weird, I mean I know its nice but there is still something wrong with the shape of the R8 that stops it being gorgeous.

Ok I admit it I can resist no longer and just have to post some pictures of the seriously gorgeous Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione. The Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione is not only beautiful to look at but one very rare car with production being limited to just 500. The Italian supercar is powered by a V8 engine producing around 444bhp which will propel the 8C Competizione from 0 to 60 in about 4.2 seconds and on to a top speed of 181. It will cost £111.000 here in the UK and ok so some German cars can hit these speeds at a fraction of the cost they can't do it in this much style.

General Motors is set to make its most powerful and fastest production car ever when the Corvette ZR1 hits showrooms. Initial reports say the ZR1 will produce a massive 611bhp from its V8 engine and should be able to smash the magic 200mph barrier. Now being an American car its not exactly pretty, has a plastic interior and body, but for those who want something to out drag a Ferrari, Porsche or Aston Martin but don't have the money here the perfect answer.
