Michael Schumacher's Bugatti EB110

Formula One legend Michael Schumacher put his Bugatti EB 110 SS (Sport Stradale) for sale for 600,000 Euro ($761,940). The supercar is supposed to be in better-than-new condition.

This striking yellow Bugatti EB 110 was bought by Schumi in 1994 who used it in his private life for almost ten years. But he apparently hardly ever used the car as the mileage seems to be not even 5000 km.

Based on the EB 110 which was unveiled in 1991, the Bugatti EB110 SS is a mid-engine supercar with 60-valve, featuring a 3.5-litre quad-turbo V12 engine and 6-speed manual transmission. The supercar delivers 661 hp at 8,000rpm and can sprint up to 100 km/h in only 3.2 seconds with a top speed of 355 km/h. Aerospatiale France helped develop the carbon fibre chassi while Michelin constructed the custom made tires. The seats can be equipped with 4-point harness.

Kia Sportage First Edition

ly.

The all-new Kia Sportage crossover, one of the stars of the 2010 Geneva Motor Show, is to go on sale in the UK earlier than expected, on 1 August, with a high specification Sportage First Edition version. The full line-up of the all-new Sportage, including two wheel drive, petrol and additional diesel versions, will go on sale in the UK from November, however early production of RHD all-wheel-drive 2.0-litre diesel models means that eager British customers will not have to wait long to get into Kia’s latest stunningly designed model.

The Sportage First Edition is a unique version that comes complete with all-wheel drive, a choice of manual or automatic transmissions and an efficient common-rail turbodiesel engine. The 2.0-litre CRDi engine emits just 156g/km CO2 and achieves a combined cycle economy of 47.1 mpg – an impressive 31g/km less and 7.3mpg more respectively than the outgoing model.

Available in a choice of five colours – including the striking Techno Orange – the First Edition comes as standard with a comprehensive high-end specification including a full leather interior, dual zone climate control, automatic rain-sensing wipers, LED daytime running lights and 18-inch alloy wheels.

Designed by Peter Schreyer to combine the stance and attitude of a compact SUV but with a sleek, urban design and have greener credentials, Kia’s all-new Sportage is designed to meet the requirements of young families – or the young at heart – who lead busy, primarily urban-centric, lifestyles. Final development of the Sportage’s chassis in the UK has ensured that the ride and handling are optimised for British road conditions.

Aston Martin Vantage Barracuda Tzunamee

Aston Martin – a brand as typically English as afternoon tea, or horse racing at Ascot. The small model of the classic English brand, the V8 powered Vantage, is entering into a stylistically dynamic liaison with the TZUNAMEE rim, produced by the innovative wheel manufacturer BARRACUDA WHEELS from Stein am Rhein. The front axle is adorned with 9.0 x 20 inch light alloy rims, while 10.0 x 20 inch rims are mounted on the rear drive axle.

With its striking drop centre and secondary spokes, which enable a lightweight design with high static strength, the TZUNAMEE wheel has an extremely aggressive look. It imparts breathtaking design and lightweight athleticism – precisely the attributes that characterise Aston Martin.

The matte black/polished, highly polished surface suits the V8 Vantage, painted in classic green, especially well. In addition, the wheel is available in sizes from 7.5 x 17 to 10 x 20 inches, and in the following colour schemes: Higloss black, real chrome, and white polished.
