Hyundai uses cars to write a really big message that can been seen from space

Land Rover Range Rover Evoque (TECH PACK) RS250 by Project Kahn


This is for you guys who have Range Rover Evoques lying around and need some inspiration on what to do with your ride in order to make it stand out from the others. On a personal point, I do think the Evoque is one of those crossover vehicles that actually look good and work properly well. It is surprisingly grippy on high speed corners even though it actually is quite tall. It actually looks good and handles well too. So give me one of these over an Audi Q5 anytime.

PRESS RELEASE

The latest Land Rover Range Rover Evoque (TECH PACK) RS250 to roll off the Project Kahn production line will unquestionably turn heads.

Our Cars: The W204 C180 needs and gets new tyres - Continental MC5



It seems so fast. It has already been two and a half years since I purchased the Mercedes Benz w204 C180. In mileage terms, I have done slightly over 40,000km in it and it now needs new tyres. The car came with expensive Continental CSC5 tyres (which recently came up tops in EVO's tyre of the year recently). That tyre was good in the dry, good in the wet and quite quiet on most road surfaces. It was consistent in its grip and its give. It was predictable too and you could give the C180 a shove out of junctions so that the tail would wag a little when turning left or right. I suppose that this is because it is a top dollar tyre. Top dollar prices too.

Only in South East Asia - ENKIE Alloy wheels


I saw this at a local tyre shop earlier today. It looks like I have stumbled on the now classic 15 inch Enkei RP01 alloy wheel here. I thought that this would be a good replacement to the tired looking wheels that are on the Proton Wira I maintain. Of course, upon closer examination you can make out that they are ENKIE and not ENKEI. The genuine RP01 had the words ENKEI at the same spot as this set of wheels.

Spotted for sale: Ferrari Lamborghini City.

As usual, Monday morning. Sent my kid to school, came home, went to the loo to deposit some waste, had my morning mug of coffee, started up the notebook and opened up Mudah.my to search the ads for interesting cars that I fuel my dream of owning my next project car. And I see this.
