There are many sports cars that are being sold in the market that can reach blinding speeds in an instant, while there are also others that have sleek designs and interiors which are made from the finest materials that are guaranteed to make their prospective drivers and passengers comfortable. But there are few sports cars out there that actually ensure that their drivers would not be wasting their money on constant trips to the gas station by being fuel efficient, an aspect of vehicles that that is often overlooked in favor of speed and design.
2012 MERCEDES BENZ SLK 250 CDI
The matter of comfort has also been taken care of in the vehicle with its comfortable seats and one of the largest luggage capacities in any Mercedes-Benz vehicle, thus proving that the 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK 250 CDI is indeed a car that provides everything for its drivers.
The 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK 250 CDI promises to provide not only speed through its all-powerful engine that can satisfy any hunger for speed, but also boasts of an interior made from comfortable seats that is highly unusual for sports cars. But perhaps the feature that distinguishes the SLK 250 CDI from other sports cars that also offer fast speeds and sleek designs is that it is one of the most cost-efficient vehicles in the market in terms of its fuel consumption, which is only 4.9 liters for every 100 kilometers.
That does not mean that the speed of the 2012 SLK 250 CDI has been compromised because of its being cost-efficient, because the truth is actually the opposite. By being one of the most efficient fuel consuming vehicles, it also gives its prospective drivers immense satisfaction by providing them with an exciting driving experience.
2012 ARRINERA VENOCARA
A famous adage asserts that change is the only thing that is constant in the world, and in the automobile industry where nothing is sound and permanent, no one has embodied innovation more than British car designer Lee Noble.
Having designed almost 2000 vehicles, he has earned a reputation not for designing the most visually-appetizing cars in the market, but those which are guaranteed to take the experience of driving to an even higher plane. The case is no different for his latest offering to car buyers and enthusiasts everywhere. The 2012 Arrinera Venocara.
The vehicle’s chassis is also made of materials that is lightweight and has high resistance to deformation, ensuring the protection of the driver as well as the passengers of the vehicle. And finally, the Arrinera also boasts of an interior which can rival that of other vehicles which are called “supercars,” as it is made of leather and other materials of excellent quality.
With over 30 years of experience in car designing under his belt, Lee Noble has truly carved a niche for himself in the automobile industry. And the 2012 Arrinera will be another testament to his dedication to innovation and his desire to take driving to a whole new level.
Equipped with a massive eight-liter 6.2 Liter engine and yet is made of lightweight materials to ensure that its speed will not be compromised by the sheer size of it engine. That is not to say, however, that the engine will be merely a detriment to the vehicle, as it is exactly what makes the Arrinera stand out from other vehicles which only succeed in the visuals and fail miserably once put on the roads for a test.

The dispute over the Lotus name in Formula 1 has taken another turn as Team Lotus has lost the support of the name’s previous owner David Hunt.According to the Telegraph, that the two parties are at odds with each other over payments for the Team Lotus name which was supposedly purchased last year by Tony Fernandes. The owner of the Team Lotus name is David Hunt, brother of the late James Hunt, and he has shared some scathing comments with the Telegraph Sport.Read the full news by Tom Cary from The Telegraph below.
TEAM LOTUS CIVIL WAR BREAKS OUT WITH TONY FERNANDES AND DAVID HUNT LOCKED IN DISPUTE OVER PAYMENT FOR NAME
It has been dubbed one of the most ludicrous, not to mention confusing quarrels in Formula One history. And it is up against some pretty stiff competition.
Barring an 11th hour settlement, the High Court battle between British car manufacturer Group Lotus, sponsors of the Renault F1 team, and rival outfit Team Lotus will commence onm Monday to determine who has the right to use the brand in Formula One.
However, Telegraph Sport has learned that an equally fierce fight is taking place behind the scenes which potentially threatens the outcome of that trial.
It has emerged that Tony Fernandes, the team principal of Team Lotus, is locked in a bitter dispute with supposed ally David Hunt, brother of former world champion James Hunt and the man who bought the Team Lotus name from the administrator when the outfit was wound up in 1994.
The dispute centres around Hunt’s claims that Fernandes has gone back on an agreement the pair struck in January over payment for the Team Lotus name.
The revelation will surprise fans who were under the impression that Fernandes had already paid for the marque. It will also surprise those who believed that he and Hunt enjoyed a cosy relationship. Fernandes told his Twitter followers in January that Hunt was “the most honourable man” in the whole Lotus v Lotus dispute.
Their relationship has now been exposed as decidedly fractious with Fernandes having allegedly instructed his lawyers to sue Hunt for defamation in the past week.
Hunt is currently refusing to assist Team Lotus in court, despite having agreed to do so in January. He is also claiming that he has seen “potentially some serious holes” in their case.
“When we had to make the Team Lotus staff redundant in 1995 I made a promise to them and the fans to return it to F1 in the hands of a worthy custodian, and initially I had high hopes that Tony, Din and Nasa [his business partners] were going to tick the boxes,” Hunt told Telegraph Sport.
“What angers me is that I have, in good faith, worked extremely hard on the build-up to the hearing because I believed Tony would honour our January agreement.
“He’s apparently “changed his mind” at the 11th hour, by his own admission, now that I’ve done so much work on his company’s behalf, and he’s trying to renegotiate by offering new terms which are, frankly, ludicrous.
“All I’m looking for is for Tony to stick to his word and honour our agreement. If he doesn’t, then regrettably I don’t see why I should continue to provide assistance and this trial won’t be the last battle he’s facing, even if he wins.”
Team Lotus were unavailable for comment on Sunday night.
