Tiff Needell drives the Aston Martin DBS

February 14th 2008 10:00
Aston Martin DBS Quantum of Solace


While we love watching Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson give his humorous reviews on anything from a Renault Clio to a Koeniggsegg CCX, it's Tiff Needell, the host from rival show Fifth Gear that we turn to for the more serious and driver-focussed reviews and test drives.

The ex-racing driver jumps into the hot seat of an Aston Martin DBS for a series of hot laps on a very narrow racetrack and even takes on the record-breaking stunt driver from Casino Royale to see who is quickest around the narrow circuit.




The Aston Martin DBS will once again be James Bond's choice of transportation in the upcoming 007 movie, Quantum of Solace after making its debut in Casino Royale although this time around, there will be a lot more driving sequences and less body rolls - we can't wait!

Video: Audi R8 V12 TDI Concept

Audi R8 V12 TDI Concept


German manufacturer Audi has publicly revealed it will be showing two brand spanking new vehicles at this year's Detroit Motor Show (NAIAS) - a new production car making its world debut, which we already know is going to be the TTS and the other, a concept car.

Word is out there that the concept car will be a diesel-powered version of the flagship R8 - the Audi R8 V12 TDI Concept.



The engine in this model is a race-derived 6.0-litre V12 diesel motor, which was first used in the R10 Le Mans competition car and now available in the Audi Q7 SUV. This engine produces 368kW (500hp) and a tarmac carving 1000Nm of torque.

While this was all rumours, a video showing this concept in all its glory has been 'leaked' onto the internet, all but confirming to us that the Audi R8 V12 TDI Concept will be making its debut next week.
