Chris Harris from Evo magazine has a strong relationship with Porsche which has enabled him great access to Andreas Preuninger, Head of GT Cars. Using that relationship Harris recorded this interview with Preuninger in which the pair discuss the finer points of the limited edition 911 GT3 RS 4.0. It’s a good insight and details [...]

The Lamborghini Aventador will soon be doing the press rounds and reviews should be coming our way shortly. In the meantime, Lamborghini here’s another collection of YouTube clips, starting with a pair of 700hp beasts driving around Rome and in the countryside. The Rome video is all romance and drama, the countryside clip, though, is [...]

While any talk of motorsport biopics this year has centred around Ayrton Senna we recently came across another one that promises to be just as good. Simply called Legacy, it tells us the Barry Sheene story. Sheene was a lovable larrikin with talent and charisma to burn, his life was almost made for the silver [...]

Jenson Button took centre stage yesterday in one of the more bizarre incidents in Formula One history. Well, actually, what he took was Sebastian Vettel’s parking spot when the two drivers came in to pit during the Chinese Grand Prix. As world champion constructor Red Bull Racing has the first garage in pit lane. McLaren, [...]

It’s a tough gig being a navigator in a competitive rally. Especially if your driver misses a call. Thankfully, in this footage from Targa Tasmania, driver Kym Illman and navigator Kirrilee Gentleman were not injured and we can indulge a few lighthearted moments. Although, let’s hope Kirrilee is wearing a HANS device when she next [...]

The Mercedes-Benz comedy team is at it again and has followed up the “Compliments” ad with this new clip “Decision”. It’s a nice lighthearted way to illustrate the intra team rivalry faced by Formula 1 drivers. Just a shame the Mercedes GP team isn’t performing as well as these ads are.

Fancy a gander inside a secret BMW production line where all new prototypes are hand built? Lucky for you BMW USA has lifted the lid on this once secret facility, known as Plant Zero. It’s a little bit nerdy, but hey, if you’re reading AUSmotive there’s every chance you’re a proper car nerd anyway. We [...]

Things didn’t go too well for Jimmy Keeney at the Global RallyCross Championships in California on the weekend. As you can see he made a bit of a hash of it. The accident happened after a jump, which seemed to go very well; until he landed. The good news is that Keeney and his co-driver [...]

Nico Rosberg and Michael Schumacher unsurprisingly star in this new promo for Mercedes GP. However, it’s a cameo performance from two-time F1 champ Mika Hakkinen that steals the show. It’s not the first time Mercedes has used Mika in an ad, but this time he delivers a much better punch. Who said the Germans don’t [...]

Jethro Bovingdon, Car magazine journo, has shown the pitfalls of video reviewing. Well, actually, his editors have, perhaps, unkindly shared with the world the very painful moment where Bovingdon crashed into a kerb in a brand new Ferrari FF. Fortunately it was nothing too serious, and, really, a good way to promote the full review [...]

The highly anticipated Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 has created plenty of activity on the Tube. So here’s a few of the better clips out there, starting with an official teaser clip released just before the Geneva Motor Show.

The Saudi Arabian motoring community is back to entertain us once again. This time, there’s no singing, just a few crazy stunts. You have to ask though, in a country with strict alcohol and drug policies, where on earth did these guys get the gear they must have been on to carry out this stunt! [...]

You may have already heard that Mark Webber bought himself a Porsche GT2 RS late last year. He’s just one of the lucky 500 to get their hands on the limited-run 620hp supercar. However, always willing to share the love, Webber has teamed up with Porsche UK to offer a few joy rides to a [...]
