1966 Ford Mustang GT Convertible


1971 Aston Martin DBS V8 Coupe


Honda Hands

You've got to hand it to Honda. They love a fun commercial.


My all-time favourite Honda ad is still The Impossible Dream. Enjoy.

Bentley's SUV Tease


This is the publicity pic from Bentley to tease their new SUV type vehicle. You may remember my rant about bentley's crazy ugly 4WD concept pictured below. I am champing at the bit to know if they've finessed their original idea. Either that or they're hoping people only ever see it in a cloud of dust like above. 

Brabus 800 iBusiness Mercedes-Benz G65 AMG


Based on the M-B G65, it features a ^.0L V12 twin turbo engine, producing 800hp. Inside it is kitted out with Mac Mini, Apple TV, an iPad and an iPod touch, all integrated into the entertainment system controlled by an iPhone app. It's been entirely refitted in fine leather and Alcantara, with articulating rear seats and an integrated high-speed modem and WLAN so you can do business from the road.

What sort of business would that be? That's right, the buying and selling of drugs...business. For someone dodgy, they're certainly going to leave an equally impressive digital footprint in this. Get your alibi ready...
