75,000 Euro and she's all yours!

I have a 93`Roc Yamaha V4 500 for sale and may be some one is interested in this exclusive GP bike. I have the bike, ready for run and some spare parts, in very good conditions.
This bike was ridden by spanish rider Juan Lopez Mella in the 500 cc World Championship

Happy Birthday, Life On Cars!

TIME flies when you're having fun.

It's been exactly one year since Life On Cars first went live, with a short, shouty piece about why BMW's attempts to revive the Mini Mayfair name wouldn't work. As it turns out the trademark reliability of the original Mayfair - or the lack of it - has become a bit of a running joke ever since, but at least it gives me something to write about!

The story of my very own Mini Mayfair kicked off Life On Cars on July 28 last year, and since then the blog's grown way beyond the web-based rant I started off to keep my toe in the deep end of the motoring pool after I'd ended my stint as a writer for the motors page for the Daily Post in North Wales.

Alongside the blog there's now the weekly column in The Champion newspaper, the increasingly popular Fire Up The... road test section and a monthly spot on the Live From Studio One show on Dune FM, which is off-air for the moment but will be back in September. All this from a chap with a penchant for clapped-out classic cars which break down a lot.

How best to celebrate? A cake would have been a bit too obvious so I've gone with what several people suggested; create my very own car magazine! Both my readers, I'm sure, will be delighted with the work that's gone into creating Life On Cars Magazine, which you can browse through below.

Read it, enjoy it, and let me know what you think. I might even make another if Life On Cars is here this time next year...

When Audi's A5 is just too small

AUDI is inviting coupe connoisseurs who reckon the A5 just isn't accomodating enough to try out an all-new model it announced earlier this week.

The A7 Sportback, which carries over the slinky four door coupe formula from the smaller A5 Sportback but on a much larger level, is hoping to steal sales from the Mercedes-Benz CLS when it goes on sale in the UK next year, starting at a little under £43,000.

“The sought-after Audi Sportback formula can now be enjoyed on an even grander scale in the all new A7 Sportback, which in a similar vein to its A5 namesake discreetly integrates saloon car versatility and hatchback practicality into an elegant premium coupe silhouette,” said a spokesperson for Audi UK of the new arrival.

“By reinterpreting the concept for the larger executive class, the A7 Sportback will project the Vorsprung durch Technik brand into yet another new segment when it joins the UK range.”

Audi will bring the familiar Quattro four wheel drive system along to the party when the A7 Sportback arrives in the UK, along with a choice of two petrol and two diesel engines, and a sleek bodyshell that's longer, lower and wider than the A6 saloon.
