Car Update

[ad_1] About a year ago Boreham Motorworks announced that it would be building a series of Ford Escort Mk1 RS Continumod examples. We explained so in the article below. In addition, they outlined the engine that would power these brand-new classics. The company has just strapped the very first engine to the dyno. We’ve posted […]

[ad_1] 2026 is an exciting one for Formula One fans. In addition to a completely new powertrain and aero set of regulations, two new teams will be joining the grid. We’ve already written about Cadillac, as you can read here. The other is Audi, which has shown the Audi R26 Concept F1 car as a […]

[ad_1] Double Apex was invited to the national media ride-and-drive event of the refreshed Volvo XC60, recently held in the Western Cape winelands. Volvo was once known for its boxy sedans and stationwagons. The Swedish brand has transitioned to offering more SUVs than any other body style, and made a real success of it. The […]

[ad_1] Bentley is usually associated with luxury, instead of speed. But former 24 Hours of Le Mans winners know a thing or two about creating a performance car. As a result it has created the Bentley Supersports to show that it has a wild side, too. The moniker ‘Supersports’ has only been applied to three […]

[ad_1] We recently took delivery of a Ford Territory Dark Edition, which was our first encounter with the smaller (since the Puma has now left the SA listings) of the Blue Oval’s SUV offerings. Ford used to be the brand of family cars. From Escorts and Cortinas to Sierras and Sapphires, Mondeos and Falcons. There […]

[ad_1] Racing legend and F1 commentator Graham Duxbury takes a closer look at Artificial Intelligence in F1: the hidden driver.  Behind the advanced aerodynamic shapes and mouldings that characterise Formula One cars in the current ground-effect, hybrid-powertrain era lies a less visible but unquestionably formidable and transformative force: Today, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has an increasingly […]

[ad_1] A few months ago we brought you the article, below, about the apex M2 derivative, called the CS. We also confirmed that BMW SA will be receiving an allocation of these coupes for local fans. The local subsidiary has just added SA pricing to its website. Check the bottom of this post for BMW […]

[ad_1] Geely Auto has returned to the SA new-car market in full force. The Chinese automaker’s earlier models were previously sold locally, but those cars were brought in and backed up by importers. Some of those early attempts were rather forgettable. The brand has, since exiting about a decade ago, improved markedly and is now […]

[ad_1] The all-new full electric Porsche Cayenne has just been shown to the world. The latest-gen of the brand’s top-selling SUV will be offered alongside hybrid and ICE variants. This is a bit of a turnaround as it seemed that Porsche was committing both of its SUVs to battery powere only going forward, as it […]

[ad_1] The Magma GT Concept may be just a concept, but we’d bet that a production version isn’t far off. And we are willing to bet that it will share much of this car’s appearance, which already seems quite close to a production reality. The Magma GT Concept was unveiled in France as a precursor […]
