Aston Martin expands its luxury road "fleet" with a water vehicle, the prestigious James Bond-worthy speedboat Aston Martin AM37. The motorboat is the result of a collaboration between the Dutch brand Quintessence Yachts, the nautical architects from Mulder Design, also from the Netherlands, and the British brand, which regularly supplies even the most famous secret agent with cars.

Classic motorhomes are too big and bulky, caravans are impractical and not flexible enough. What do you choose? The new Volkswagen California small camper, a vehicle created for camping enthusiasts. Seven seats, as many as five beds, a retractable roof and two versions of the itinerary. All this with the basic Beach model, which, like the other two "Californias" of the sixth generation, will initially be powered by a TDi diesel unit, and later by a gasoline engine.
At the 2015 Goodwood Festival of Speed, Lotus' most expensive car in history - the Lotus 3-Eleven, the successor to the 2008 model 2-Eleven - made its world public debut. So it makes sense that it's also the fastest. It can be driven up to 290 km/h, and from 0 to 100 km/h it takes less than three seconds. It has an extremely light and all-new body, and there will be two versions available - one ready for racetracks and the other for normal roads.
Terry Grant became the new old two-wheel world record holder at Goodwood, bettering the 2011 mark at the recent Festival of Speed. The new fastest time he set on the one-mile (just under two kilometers) track in a Nissan The Juke RS Nismo now stands at two minutes and 10 seconds, a significant improvement on the previous Goodwood record.
In Goodwood, where the Festival of Speed was recently held (2015 Goodwood Festival of Speed), Mazda launched its racing cars into the air! She did not blow them up, but the Japanese dismantled a 40-meter monument made of steel bars, under which Gerry Judah signed his name. It is a 120-ton installation dedicated to Mazda's racing heritage, and the sculpture is topped off by the 787B and LM55 Vision Gran Turismo models.
Most will agree that the main advantages of family minivans are safety and comfort, not "sexiness" and makeup. The exception that proves the rule is Toyota's Ultimate Utility Vehicle (UUV). But don't run to the Toyota showroom just yet, because this multipurpose single-seater vehicle was made only for Toyota's Ever Better Expedition, a 110-day or 26,500-kilometer journey across North America, which is the second stage of their "Five Continents" project.
Wheelless cars have been on the agenda for a long time, especially if sci-fi movies are any indicator. But if in reality these are still years away, it seemed that the floating boards predicted for 2015 by the movie Back to the Future II would be a more realistic goal. Just yesterday, these seemed like something from the future, but luxury car maker Lexus surprised and apparently managed to figure out how to defy gravity with a board. Slide is probably not a prank.
The Ferrari F40 replica made of Lego bricks was created as a tribute to the last Ferrari model, which was fired by its founder Enzo Ferrari. It is one of the most legendary sports vehicles, which entered the history of motoring with golden letters as early as 1987. And just as Lego bricks are timeless toys, the F40 model is also timeless and still turns heads almost 30 years later. Therefore, one made of Lego bricks that you can assemble yourself is a logical consequence of both mentioned facts.
Good things come to those who wait. Alfa Romeo let its fans wait a long time for the new product, but the wait was worth it. On the occasion of the 105th anniversary of the brand's existence, the famous name Alfa Romeo Giulia was brought back to life. It is the successor to the famous Alfa 159, which rose like a phoenix from the ashes, but looks nothing like its predecessor. In parallel with Giulio, the brand's refreshed logo made its premiere, but the snake of the Renaissance Visconti dynasty and the Lombard cross clearly did not lose their place.
After three years, Peugeot decided to update the 208 model, which is also the best-selling car of this brand. Design corrections are minimal, but still welcome, as they infuse the popular city car with some additional freshness to fight in an extremely competitive car class, where the 208 is really at the top. So - the main one in town!

The Mercedes-Benz GLC is the new SUV of the star from Stuttgart, which replaces the angular GLK model with modern lines inherited from its brothers. Only this one goes into retirement, as Mercedes also introduces a new model naming system with the GLC. It will fight for buyers with the BMW X3 and the Audi Q3 and Q5. From what we have seen, we believe that he will be extremely successful at this!
