All that said however, if you miss out on an opportunity to acquire your very own special edition MINI, fret not. Personalisation is at the core of the MINI spirit, and there are still hundreds of combinations of paint, wheel, upholstery, trim, and accessory options to ensure that no two MINIs are ever identical.

Five reasons why a Porsche SUV is the perfect luxury car to own

IN Porsche, Singapore, SUV, Cayenne, Macan, Stuttgart Auto, Eurokars

To say that Porsche created a class of its own in the SUV world is an understatement. Since the launch of the Porsche Cayenne in 2003, car makers everywhere have been trying to play catch-up!


The official figures are 181 bhp, 270 Nm of torque and a 0-100 km/h timing of 7.3 seconds. But in reality, the car feels a lot more lively than the numbers suggest. But the beauty of it all is that the fine handling characteristics of the MINI have been retained and the little electrified hatch is still a fun runabout to pilot. Taking it around a series of bends feels like you're driving an electric go-kart (with music and air-con!).

But enough about the front end. Let’s look past it and work our way around everything else that’s awesome about these cars. Up top, there’s a carbon roof that’s become de rigeur for BMW M cars of late, while at the back there are massive diffusers and quad-tailpipes with active exhaust valves.

The sound of speed

Klipsch, the official headphone and portable audio partner of the McLaren Formula 1 team, has just released a co-branded set of wireless earphones with the supercar brand.


Maybe it’s the fact that you turn in on and there is no audible sound that tells you it’s started. That silence is evident throughout the drive and there is no corresponding increase in audible intensity even if you’re speeding past other road users at high speed. Or perhaps it’s the clinical interior that’s full of buttons and touchscreens, much like a smart phone, that really removes the whole ‘car’ experience.
