Cars Should Be Fit For Purpose
You will want to point out that in the olden days, the 鈥榗rossover vehicle鈥?hadn鈥檛 yet been invented. If you wanted superb performance and you were also a plumber, you had to buy a Maserati and a van. Then came the Range Rover, which I think could be classed as a crossover car, because it combined two attributes that had previously been considered incompatible - luxury and proper four-wheel drive. The Series 1 Rangey qualifies, I think, as a classic. But I can鈥檛 see many more of them on the horizon. Can anybody name a car that combines two supposed roles that is genuinely, gut-achingly desirable? I can鈥檛 think of one. I keep reading of sporty pickups and luxury MPVs and urban this and that, and I don鈥檛 want any of them. There is still, after all, a case for cars that can be pigeonholed: the 458, the Rolls-Royce Ghost, the Land Cruiser. And it鈥檚 not just posh stuff, because the same is true of the Suzuki Splash. Certainty of mind is an admirable thing. I can play the piano and mend motorcycles, but I鈥檓 a bit rubbish at both. Sponsored By : CHAUDHRI ELECTRODE ENGINEERING. AL-MUQIT STEELS. Q.A.M INTERNATIONAL.

Jaguar and its Land Rover sibling are hiring so many new employees here in Coventry that, well, the walk into headquarters and the factory from the parking lot is quite a hike. There just isn't enough parking on the main grounds. This is what happens when you're a car company whose Jaguar brand alone saw sales surge 42 per cent globally in 2013, with Canadian sales up a stunning 96 per cent. Jaguar Land Rover sales overall last year were up 19 per cent to 425,006. And annual profits are now in the billions. This month Jaguar is showcasing its new F-Type Coupe, which follows the launch of the F-Type Convertible last year. And this duo comes after the introduction of all-wheel drive to Jaguar's lineup, which in large part explains the big jump in Jag sales in Canada. Coming in 2015 is a small sedan built on an all-new aluminum flexible platform.
When buying a new car stereo it is important to consider how you are going to make sure the new unit blends in with your old car. Whether your new stereo is a DIN or double DIN fitting, fascia adaptors surround it to give it the same appearance as the rest of your dashboard. Lots of people want the best stereo for their car. Whether you want something with better sound quality, if you want to be able to listen to digital radio on the go, get better reception or an integrated DVD player, it can be an exciting purchase. Some people, however, are in for a nasty surprise once they've fitted the new radio; it just doesnt look right. To fit your new stereo youve had to take off the fascia that surrounded the old one, and now it wont fit back on again. A fascia adaptor can help. Theyre available in both single and double DIN sizes and will help blend your new car stereo into your old car design.
