Jaguar XKR 75 2010

Jaguar engineers have been improving the power and torque from a supercharged 5.0-liter 530p recognized and 655nm, respectively for the 75 Jaguar XKR, to offer performance truly extraordinary. Although the speed limit in a limited edition model is limited electronically to 174 mph (280 kmh), with the Jaguar XKR 75 times 0-60mph (100 km / h) acceleration was reduced by 4.6 to 4.4 seconds from the 510 PS standard XKR. Use of lightweight aluminum rigid architecture of the XK as a strong foundation, the rise of the Jaguar XKR counterbalanced by the chassis 75, a dynamic agile handling are very good ride and stop with time to convince surefooted after time. The revision of the Jaguar XKR 75 feature suspension and handling precision and agility for improved performance. To ensure the Jaguar XKR 75 remained stable at high speeds, wrapped with revised front aerodynamic splitter, side jamb extensions, a rear diffuser and rear wing provide a better balance and greater loss of lift. Computer Active Differential Control accordance XKR also reduce the sensitivity of direction at high speed, further enhancing the stability and driver control. The Jaguar XKR 75 features of the new Stratus Gray arrived. red brake calipers contrast, eye-catching 20 inch Vortex forged alloy polished finish with black light technology and diamonds turn.

The uniqueness of exclusive features of the new XKR 75 include increased performance by recalibrating the engine and transmission details, more power to 530p (compared with 510 PS on XKR), not much at 655nm torque (625Nm at cons XKR). In Jaguar XKR 75 there is no torque converter upgraded to handle the increased torque, suspension system enhanced to improve the accuracy and agility, increase the spring and damper rates (spring 28 percent of the front springs are fixed at the rear 32 percent more rigid), new aluminum front, the engine and completely revised rear suspension for improved vertical camber stiffness (up 25 per cent), dynamic Adaptive Re-listening damper control software, reduce no. ride height (15mm front and 10mm rear). This Jaguar features Body Pack finished aerodynamic body color front splitter, rocker extensions and rear diffuser, and body colored rear spoiler and larger rear deck lid finisher.

TT on the Quay 2010 Meeting - 30th July

‘Poole is a beautiful place’

For some years that was the slogan of Poole Tourism and while I always remember seeing the tag-line displayed on everything from bus backs to wheelie-bins across the town, the message never really got drummed in. You get used to the scenery, the colourful history evades you and the natural beauty blends into daily life. Until recently that is, when I attended the Harry Paye and Poole Afloat event on Poole Quay. Aimed at getting families interested in life near and indeed on the water. This fantastic event and the beauty of Poole Quay reminds us all why Poole really is a beautiful place.

Poole Quay is also the setting for another fantastic event this summer. On Friday 30^th July, the roads around the quay will be closed to all traffic (TTs exempt of course) for the 9^th Annual TT on the Quay event. The event has grown in popularity over the years and in some years has seen over 70 Audi TTs parked up on the quayside. This year will continue in the same format with a free BBQ provided for TT owners and as usual, we will be hiring the Brownsea Island Ferry provide a unique vantage point and seating.

There will be a display from the TT Owners Club, demonstrating a range of one-of-a-kind cars and examples of several specifications from throughout the years. We will also be putting on an impressive display, including our unique Audi R8 Spyder, the all-new Audi A8 and the Audi TT 2011 facelift.

The 2011 model year TT, has been fully revamped and while the styling changes are subtle and understated, the technical advancements are huge. All cars will now benefit from brake energy recuperation and the new driver efficiency programme which gives tips to improve fuel economy. General Fuel economy has been improved by up to 14%, while CO2 emissions have been cut by a further 30g/km in the 2.0 TFSI manual. Performance has also been enhanced with the 2.0 TFSI 200PS engine being replaced by the award winning 211PS engine from the A5 Coupe. This will now send a TT coupe quattro S-tronic from 0-60 in only 5.6 seconds and yet still returns 39.2mpg combined, reinforcing the TT as the best in its class. The new model opened for ordering back in April and we expect to see the first customer deliveries arriving very soon.

The event takes place between 6-9PM on the 30^th July. For the TT owners among you, please arrive from 6PM and our marshals will be on hand to position your car in the largest display of TTs in the south. Those not lucky enough to drive an Audi TT, parking is available just a few minutes away and with so many vehicles on display, with the water as the backdrop, it is well worth the journey.

Renault Megane Trophy (2009)

The new Renault Mégane Trophy features the same mechanicals as the current car, including an FIA-homologated sports-prototype tubular chassis, a mid-rear V6 3.5 24V engine.The most visible change concerns its new body design which takes its inspiration from the lines of New Mégane Coupe. Under the bonnet, a fresh look has also been taken at the Renault-Nissan Alliance's V6 3.5 24V powerplant which now delivers 360hp.A new inlet manifold, which is fed by roof-mounted air-ducts, has taken engine power from 330 to 360hp. The new car's reliability is as excellent as ever with rebuild intervals of every 5,500km. Combined with the aerodynamic gains, the extra power output of the V6 3.5 24V engine will enable new Renault Mégane Trophy to lap in times similar to those of a Porsche GT3.

TechArt Porsche Carrera GT

The TechArt designers have developed aerodynamically efficient custom-tailored body components made from exposed carbon fiber that serve as a visual contrast to the metallic-orange special paint.Both benefit not only the engine sound that escapes through the two production tailpipes; the modifications also increase maximum power output from 612 hp / 450 kW to some 635 hp / 467 kW.The low-reaching front spoiler reduces lift on the front axle at high speeds further and thus further optimizes directional stability.TechArt has also developed a three-piece gurney flap that serves as the aerodynamic counterpart in the rear.The center piece of the separation edge extends together with the pop-up rear wing and in combination with the fixed spoiler edges on the left and right produces additional downforce on the rear axle.

Bentley Continental Supersports Convertible

The new Supersports Convertible, with the same 630PS (621bhp/463kW) twin-turbocharged W12 engine, is the fastest, most potent drop-top Bentley has ever built, offering the ultimate Bentley driving experience in the world's most dramatic convertible.A highly focussed, pure Bentley driving experience

With 630PS (621bhp) and 800Nm (590lb ft) of torque from its pioneering FlexFuel engine and new 'Quickshift' transmission, the Bentley Continental Supersports Convertible is the fastest drop-top Bentley has ever built. It accelerates from 0-60mph in 3.9 seconds (0-100km/h in 4.2 seconds) and, conditions permitting, can continue onto a top speed of 202mph (325km/h).The Bentley Continental Supersports Convertible also shares its ride height with the GTC Speed, sitting 10mm (0.4in) lower at the front and 15mm (0.6in) lower at the rear than the standard GTC.The 9.5Jx20-inch forged alloy wheels, shared with the Supersports Coupé, offer a weight saving of 10kg (22lb) per car, reducing unsprung and rotating mass while the open 10-spoke design offers superior brake cooling. The rear wheels have a 25mm (1 inch) greater offset resulting in a 50mm (2 inches) increase in the rear track, further benefiting handling and stability.Eye-catching, black gloss Bentley-branded brake calipers act on the carbon ceramic brakes. Surrounding the brakes are the unique 20-inch, forged alloy wheels with Smoked Steel-finish which are exclusive to Supersports models. Large diameter tailpipe trims round out the car's purposeful stance when viewed from the rear. Beneath the bonnet Supersports badges grace the cover of the 630PS (621bhp) W12 engine.

ABT VW New Beetle Cabriolet

The ABT VW New Beetle Cabriolet including two types of back-silencers, an aluminium gear lever knob, aluminium pedals, stainless steel running boards, as well as a set of floormats displaying the Abt Sportsline logo. Additionally, a New Beetle owner can choose between 14 wheels, one of them being the brand-new Z5 wheel (8 x 18") presented on the IAA motor show.The 2.0-litre engine receives a power plus to ca. 105 kW (143 hp) thanks to capacity enhancement by 200 cubic centimetres, a customized Abt crankshaft, special pistons, Abt camschafts, a cylinder head modification, a mid-silencer, optimised air ducting as well as changes to the electronic engine management. Abt expertise in the ECU field ensures an increase in the 1.8-litre turbo-engine from 110 kW (150 hp) to 142 kW (193 hp). For the 1.9-litre TDI, Abt provides an increase from 66 kW (90 hp) to 85 kW (112 hp).A front grill, chrome fog headlamp frame, headlamp visor and the matching V-rims (7.5 x 17 inch) rounds off the New Beetle body kit from the House of Abt.A very special example of the New Beetle caused a sensation in German rallying: Together with natural gas supplier Thyssengas, Abt enters a Beetle in the German Rally Challenge series and the German Rally Championship. The highlight: The 230 hp model uses natural gas instead of traditional fuel.

2010 9ff SPEED 9

9ff style this twin-turbo 3,824cc six-cylinder explodes into an aggressive rumbling roar within 9ff's cavernous hangar style, settling down to a burbling idle through those RSR-style exhaust outlets. The man behind the car is far more serious about the speedster nameplate he has taken a Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet and turned it into a turbocharged 650-horsepower monster essentially a topless version of the Porsche 911 GT2. Called the Speed 9, this car has become a 9ff model in its own right, and Fatthauer (te man behind the car) can make this concept even more elaborate, up to a 1200hp version of the 911 Turbo Cabriolet. This engine makes 650 hp at 6500 rpm and 656 pound feet of torque at 5600 rpm. This means the 2010 9ff Speed 9 is brutally fast and Fatthauer claims it'll make 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.3 seconds and won't quit until you hit 205 mph (if you can stand the wind blast). This car is limited to 205 mph because of concerns about the topless chassis' rigidity. The prototype of the 2010 9ff Speed 9, and the production car will prove different, as it will have to accommodate a soft top to protect that interior from the rain.

2011 Mercedes SLS AMG GT3

The extra special Mercedes Benz SLS AMG will make its race track debut in 2011. The Car features clean design and breathtaking form of the Mercedes Benz SLS AMG. The 2011 Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 race car boasts a new front skirt with enlarged air intakes. The wide opening beneath the characteristic radiator grill bearing the large Mercedes star and the wing shaped horizontal fins supplies air to the engine oil cooler and brake discs. The same function is served by the two intakes below the vertical bi-xenon headlamps. Downforce on the front axle is provided courtesy of four externally mounted side flics, as well as a carbon front splitter; it runs directly into the smooth underbody panel. The hood features a central opening for the extraction of heat from the engine, while side openings in the front fenders facilitate air flow through the wheel arches. The fenders have been widened front and rear to accommodate the large racing tires with a breadth of 78.3 inches, the GT3 bodyshell is a good 2 inches wider than the series production Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. The new sills feature openings for cooling the rear brakes, with the smooth underbody visible along the underside of the sills. The 31.7 gallon fuel tank is located centrally behind the driver. The AMG 6.3 liter V8 engine is virtually identical to that of the series production vehicle. Due to its low weight, the acceleration figures for the GT3  3.7 seconds for the sprint from 0 to 60 mph. Depending on gear ratio, the top speed is more than 186 mph. The AMG 6.3 liter V8 engine uses dry sump lubrication in the racing vehicle, too. All four corners feature brake discs in motorsport-tested composite technology. Gray cast iron axial and radial floating discs are fixed to an aluminum hat via stainless steel composite elements. This sophisticated technology enables perfect heat dissipation and thus reliable stability. The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 is also equipped with precisely calculated cooling channels openings in the front skirt and ahead of the rear wheels direct cool airflow over the brake discs. All four brake discs are ventilated, slotted and drilled. Six pot fixed calipers on the front axle and four pot fixed calipers at the rear, with the AMG logo in white, provide plenty of brake pad surface. An anti-lock brake system with special race track settings is fitted as standard. A steering wheel with a diameter of 13 inches facilitates perfect vehicle control. On opening the gullwing doors, the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 displays a functional interior with a distinctly race car feel.

Audi A1 Autocar Review - like an A4 only smaller

“The A1 is an interesting addition to the super-mini ranks, quite different from the horde in that it is created to be much more conscious of the cars above. It’s like an A4, only smaller, or as one engineer put it, the car is meant to be; all the richness of an Audi shrink-wrapped into a car just four metres long”.

The above is a quote from the first road test review of the Audi A1 by Autocar Magazine. It was in my eyes, a report made by somebody that understands the real purpose of the Audi A1. Here the reviewer, Steve Cropley identifies the new A1 as “a baby-A4, a super-mini in a business suit” and that really is what was intended with this car, simply put it is ‘Vorsprung durch Technik condensed’. The car is sporty, stylish and sophisticated, fulfilling all of Audi’s core values that apply to every model in their rapidly expanding 36 model line-up.

A lot of comparisons have been made against the Mini Cooper and while in size the cars are very similar, they could not be more different. The BMW Mini is all about being retro and cute, quality was not really a concern and needless to say it shows, particularly with the interior trim. The remake of a cult classic has proved to be very popular though and sales have been very good since the word go. The A1 is not designed to be retro, nor is it supposed to be cute; it is the gateway to the Audi range and is therefore built with all of the attention to detail that any Audi should be. Steve sums it up very well; “settled into a beautiful-looking two-tone cloth and leather seat, the driver looks forward, through a steering wheel that could have come from an A8, to a classic twin dial instrument layout with an electronic info-screen between them. It goes straight to the top of the class”.

Technology has also been taken straight from the new flag-ship Audi A8 making the A1, the most technologically advanced small car on the market. A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to spend some quality time with the new A1 and having recently launched the new A8, I too found myself making references to similarities with quality highlights. The interior design is remarkably driver orientated and even the standard interior trim-level has little touches that would be comfortable in a car twice its price. The Autocar road-test goes on to agree; “a true Audi unique selling point, is obviously from the interior. Ingolstadt bosses decided long ago that Audi would concentrate on interior craftsmanship, because it was something every buyer noticed. Believe it or not, the A1’s dash design is quite reminiscent of the Jaguar XJ’s with high-quality double-stitched material that looks just like leather everywhere and four circular air outlets with metallic bezels, reminiscent of jet engine intakes”.

“In all, there is no room to doubt that you’re in a grown-up car, for all its sub-Fiesta overall dimensions. When it comes to driving, the business-suit analogy continues. The car is very smooth and quiet, especially when you select the automatic gearbox function and it rolls along on surprisingly low revs, slurring so gently around its seven ratios that you only really notice it when you’re going for it”

Over the course of the next few weeks the press will be filled with road-tests, previews and reviews of this car as journalists are fighting to get hold of an A1 for testing. For the rest of us, there will be a chance to see the car up-close at Goodwood this weekend (1st - 4th July) and the first showroom cars are likely to arrive in late October.

Mr Cropley’s full, un-biased report can be read in Autocar Magazine (23rd June) and more information on the Audi A1 can be found by visiting www.pooleaudi.com or calling 01202 775050.

Gordon Murray T.25

Reduced energy is required to power vehicle, giving rise to higher fuel efficiency (mpg/electric battery range).A competitive power to weight ratio is achieved.Six internal layout options with rear seat adjustment (adjustable within 20 seconds) sets new standards in small vehicle packaging - a long way in front of the Smart For 2 and the Toyota iQ.Occupant capacity of between 1 and 3 persons. Luggage capacity of between 160 litres and 720 litres.

Bugatti Veyron Centenaire

The Bugatti Veyron Centenaire is a very expensive and good looking car in the world .The Type 35 Grand Prix was by far the most successful racing model. The unmistakable radiator grille and eight-spoke aluminium wheels of the Type 35 have become defining features of the Bugatti automobile. In its day, the Grand Prix was also well ahead of its time in terms of engineering ingenuity.The Grand Prix's brake drums were integrally fitted into its lightweight aluminium wheels. Unfastening the central wheel nut allowed the wheel to be easily removed within a matter of seconds and the brake to be exposed. This was a crucial advantage at the pit stop.Supposedly called the Centenaire edition, reports suggest the special Veyron an increased power rating – word on the street has always been that the Veyron's quad-turbo W16 was always capable of more than the already astronomic 1000 horsepower rating it got – up to some 1350 horses, good enough to boost the top end up to 420 km/h (261 miles-per-hour) from the current benchmark of 400 km/h (253 mph). Special paint schemes and trim pieces will surely be part of the mix as well, but hitting the Willard Scott mark may prove enough to warrant a more substantial birthday gift if the rumors are to be believed.

Bugatti Galibier

The Bugatti Galibier's design masters the challenge of uniting sportiness with the comfort and elegance of a modern four-door saloon. The basic architecture picks up on the torpedo-like character of the Type 35, which was already revived in the Bugatti Veyron, and reinterprets it.The Bugatti Galibier i16-cylinder,8-litre engine with twostage supercharging and features 64 valves, generating 1001 horsepower at 6000 rpm.The Bugatti Galibier engine special is that it was developed as a flex-fuel engine and can optional be run on ethanol. Four-wheel drive, specially developed ceramic brakes and a new suspension design enable the agile, always-sure handling of a saloon of this size. The engine draws on its 8-litre displacement to deliver a maximum torque of 1250 Newton-metres between 2200 and 5500 rpm. Apply the brakes at speeds above 200 km/h, and the rear wing acts as an airbrake, positioning itself at an angle of 113 degrees in less than 0.4 seconds, augmenting the Bugatti Veyron's already impressive stopping power. The airbrake increases negative lift at the rear of the car to 300 kg, enhancing the braking torque on the rear axle. At 400 km/h, emergency braking will bring the sports car to a complete halt in less than 10 seconds.This striking and unparalleled harmony between luxury and sportiness is complemented by alloy-coloured details in the form of the chromed Bugatti grill and door-mirrors, as well as polished wheel surfaces and roof-rails. All-black front lights, air intakes, filler caps and door-handles naturally heighten the stunning effect of the racing-blue brake callipers.
