"We thought that since we are able to build a machine that vetëdrejtohet, then why not do even safer. To me, safety has always been a priority, "said James McBride, the company Ford. The company "Google" accepts that its experimental cars tive self had diffic...

In 2009, the American car industry was on the verge of collapse. During the recession, the biggest since the economic Depression, Americans stopped buying cars. But the government financial aid saved some companies from bankruptcy, and now after 7 years, this industry echoes reflected in the International Fair of North America in Detroit. The most important news from this year's fair in Detroit are not the cars themselves, but those companies have plans to install them.

From a stunning £16 book to a secluded £75,000,000 private island... St Bombay Sapphire Star of Bombay Want to know what elevates this above the common variety Bombay Sapphire? This one’s produced at the brand's newly reopened distillery in Leverstoke Mill, Hampshire, which is home to a special slow distillation process that increases the level of extraction from the botanical oils used to give it its flavour. That means you can taste more of the infusions (juniper, coriander, lemon peel, orris, angelica, almonds, liquorice, cassia bark, bergamot orange peel and ambrette seeds, if you were wondering). The result is the best bottle of Bombay we’ve tasted yet. £34.50 via Waitrose Cellar BMW M760Li xDrive V12 Mercedes pretty owns the rights to enormo-luxe executive sedans with the S-Class , but this new more-of-everything offering from BMW may well trouble the männer from Stuttgart.

To create the Rocket 900 Brabus rebored the engine to 6.3 litres, fitted a new billet crankshaft with forged pistons, upgraded the turbochargers and attached them to larger intake manifolds. Then, to keep the temperature down under the bonnet, it fitted real gold heat shields. The results are as you'd expect from a company that feeds the energy created in its engine testing room into Germany's national grid (no, really). It has 900 metric ho...
