The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 features a 1,000-horsepower quad-turbocharged engine that can go 235 mph. That’s just 15 mph slower than the model’s sister Bugatti Super … [Read more...]

PIAGGIO AND VESPA ARE THE MODERN INTERPRETATION OF THE SCOOTER PICTURE: SUPPLIED NATIONAL FEATURES Piaggio had the top-selling scooter last year with the 150cc Fly and the 2012 model will go on sale with fuel injection in place of carburetors, immobiliser, more under-seat storage and a halogen lamp. The bigger-wheeled Liberty 150ie irons out the bigger bumps, making it a smart choice for riders who deal with bad roads on the daily commute. The Piaggio range is the modern interpretation of the Vespa scooter. Models vary from a 50cc inner-city runabout to a 500cc three-wheeler that will embarrass sports bikes over rough roads in the wet. The Italian-built Vespa range is as famous for resale values as for classic lines. One scooter proving a hit with the rental and … [Read more...]
