This delectable Testa Rossa could have been yours. Or perhaps it is..?

The hammer fell on €33.5million of rare and exotic machinery at RM’s Monaco sale last weekend – the top price achieved was €5.04m for a ’57 Ferrari 625 TRC Spider, one of two built.

Yes it's a Porsche, and yes it's a plug-in hybrid. At this rate, how long before your V12 fetish is considered weird..?

“The Porsche 918 Spyder is on the road. Driving trials of the super sports car of the future have progressed a step further with completion of the initial prototypes,” the firm tells us today.

If you see this lot in your rear view mirror, you've probably committed a traffic violation in Milan

A missive from Ferrari landed today, noting Lizzie (aka HMTQ) has been privileged to watch a bunch of Italian Carabinieri perform on horseback in front of His Majesty Luca of the Montezemolos.

Amphibious cars hold a strange fascination for cranks and geniuses alike

Most attempts at amphibious cars are about as successful as the Aston Martin Rapide. Nice idea but, ultimately, you have to ask yourself ‘why’..?

Before Mondeo man, there was Sierra man. Look out for him at Silverstone in July

You know it’s properly wet when the Morgan contingent put their roofs up, but hopefully the Silverstone Classic (20-22 July) will benefit from better weather than yesterday’s media preview.

ATFULLCHAT bags the first 'shotgun' ride in the new AC 378 GT Zagato

Legend has it US racing driver Carroll Shelby (RIP) would tape a fifty dollar bill to the sun visor and invite unsuspecting passengers to try and grab it when he demonstrated the original Shelby Cobra’s acceleration off the line. Back in the ‘60s the 271hp and 0-60 in 5.8secs of the earliest cars must have felt outrageous to the average punter, and then Shelby gave them the 427…

The 378 Zagato 'at home' to the visiting Italian contingent at Brooklands

There’s not too much ‘Italian’ about the new AC 378 GT Zagato, other than the obvious design link you might infer from its name.

    Lamborghini Aventador: Has Italy's raging bull lost all its fight?

    I’m at Goodwood’s hill-climb sitting in the Aventador.  The cars in front of me yap and growl as if hounds waiting for the off.  The orange paintwork is as bright as sunset.  The seats too.  Not even Dale Winton has hide this color.  Edging forward as each car is released from the start line, we hear engines howling down the straight - full echoing battle-cry.
