Renault's Dacia unveiled a brand spanking new Logan in the recently concluded Paris Auto Show.

The new Logan doesn't only looks better then the outgoing model,we were told by our sources it also rides and handles better with improved fit and finish.How much better??well,only time can tell.

The Iconic Golf has been given a much needed styling revamp,and the result:Clear lines,simple,safe design and yet somehow they have managed to make it as(if not more)desirable then its predecessor.

Ford Mondeo:2013.


Ladies and Gentlemen,The new Mondeo is here!The car that resurrected Ford's image has been replaced with what the car-maker claims Is its best effort yet!
 
When Ford initially unveiled that it plans to push the Mondeo further upmarket,Most of us(or maybe just me) thought we have reached the end of the "Dramatically Beautiful" styling that the car was synonym with(largely due to the fact that corporate Fat Cat tend to favor cars with lines that takes inspiration from a box of Kleenex).Thankfully and rather Surprisingly Its "upmarket" styling is still as Dramatic and as BEAUTIFUL as ever.


















The front does remind me of An Aston Martin which is a good thing(My first "Aston Martin" perhaps?)
2013 Ford Mondeo

styling aside,the car is said to be powered with Fords 1.0T Ecoboost engine,yup thats' not a typo,a 1.0 that churns out an impressive 123bhp and claims to produce just 125g/km of carbon which is about the same as today’s 2.0TDCi diesel.

2013 Honda Accord Unveiled.

Honda Accord-68



Honda Has finally pulled the sheets of the latest version of its flagship Sedan,The Accord.

Honda Accord-71

I'm happy to report that unlike the prehistoric styling of the latest incarnation of its rival the Toyota Camry(which seems to have been styled by a man who clearly has a worrying fetish with rulers) the All new Accord is a sight to behold.
Honda Accord-16

Some lines are clearly lifted of Bmw's F10 (to my eyes atleast)but that doesnt mean it lacks Originality as it is quintessentially Japanese right down to the last funky coloured dial parading on the speedometer.
