Three things to remember when driving a soft-top Audi
Kate Shrewsday

Image from all-audi-images.com It is the first time I have had to drive my husband’s soft top jewel-green Audi. He hovered round the ironing board as I ironed the children’s clothes for the day. I wore a frown. It was to be a day of thorny meetings and tetchy negotiations, and I think my unconscious addmitted what my conscious wouldn’t. The shirt I was ironing, I realised half way though, was dirty. Maddie had put it on the wrong pile. I can’t blame her: the clothes piles in this house have attained epic proportions. I glared at it, and bowled it overarm towatds the washing pile in disgust. Oh, yes, there was my husband standing by the ironing board. “A few things about the car,” he ventured. Moody silence from spouse weilding iron. Phil chose gamely to continue. “Two things you have to remember. And this is important, so you HAVE to listen.” He has become familar over our 20 years with that look of stormy focus. He knows it means the int

Good Evening Sir, May I Park Your Horrible Piece Of Crap?
The Byronic Man

Oh, hahahahaha. Yes. This will distract nicely from your crippling insecurities about your appearance. Well played, sir. For the school where I work, this past weekend was prom – that magical night when a girl’s dreams come true.  Assuming her dreams involve trying to walk in 5-inch heels, not eating your expensive dinner because the dress is too tight, and then listening to deafening music with a guy who thinks he’s the first one to come up with the idea of wearing a “funny” tuxedo. My wife and I, as part of a fund-raising effort, ran valet parking with some of the other teachers.  It was insane, exhausting, and a lot of fun. About as hard to park as you’d expect. Maybe a little harder. Some kids were barely holding it together in terms of how to be “formal” and navigating valet parking was just too much.

Three Tree Lane
Snowgood's Blog

Back when sepia prints were all the rage Three Tree Lane probably had a bit more traffic. Probably nothing more than the odd horse and cart, but today it was home to a 2013 Isuzu. Tim was amused to see the in car Sat Nav listed the road as a possible route. I hope the same software isn’t used in other lesser vehicles.

Cars and Motoring

http://www.cararticles.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/AMG-E-63-S-400×300.jpg Most AMG models are hugely powerful. One of the top of the range cars is the E63 which has some great proportions and style – and now offers an S variant that has even more bang for your buck! With an AMG rear axle limited-slip differential lock as standard, the new E 63 AMG S Model benefits from a 28 hp and 80 Nm increase over the standard E 63 AMG and is 0.1 seconds faster, reaching 62 mph from a standing start in just 4.1 seconds for the Saloon and 4.2 seconds for the Estate. The combined fuel consumption for the E 63 AMG S Model Saloon is 28.5 mpg, with emissions of 232 g/km of CO2, and the Estate achieves 28.3 combined mpg, with CO2 emissions of 234 g/km – the same as the standard E 63 AMG Estate. The enhanced exterior of the S Model features exclusive design elements, including a high-gloss black front apron with silver-shadow splitter, side sill panels and rear trim strip with silver-shadow

Alfa Romeo 4C Concept
Brainchild of Designs

The Car! Oh hell yea! We all know this car from Need For Speed : Most Wanted. This car features as the Blacklist #10. In Most Wanted, we don’t score bonus Speed Points for looks, but if we did, Alfa 4C’s supermodel styling would earn you a 10x multiplier just for parking up! Engine: This beauty features a 1750 turbo engine with 4 cylinders(hence the name “4C”). This power, combined with 250 BHP, readily ensures that this car reaches 0 – 60 mph in less that 5 seconds. Well, I’d say that we should grip onto our hats, and seats! It has a top speed of 155 mph. The 4C is equipped with six speed Alfa TCT Dual Dry Clutch Transmission, and can be operated via gearshift paddles on the steering wheel. It also has an Alfa ‘DNA’ dynamic control selector which controls the behaviour of engine, brakes, steering, throttle response, suspension and gearbox. In addition to the modes already seen in Giulietta, the 4C has a new “Race” mode. Such power, *sigh
