st exclusive cars unveiled


McLAREN SOLUS GT
PRICE: TBC Number made: 25

MCLAREN has made its virtual Vision Gran


Turismo concept car reality with this, the new
Solus GT. Aside from the company’s single-
seater race cars, the 200mph hypercar is set to
be the fastest McLaren model around a track,
thanks to a high-revving naturally aspirated
5.2-litre V10 that will produce 829bhp for a
0-62mph sprint of 2.5 seconds.
The Solus GT’s radical aerodynamics should
deliver more than 1,200kg of downforce, while
F1-style inboard suspension and a carbon-fibre
monocoque mean the car should produce
incredible performance, helped by exotic
materials used elsewhere in the Solus GT’s
construction. This keeps the kerbweight down
to less than 1,000kg. For example, its rollover
hoop and halo protection structures are made
from 3D-printed titanium, and the 18-inch GAME CHANGER In effect, this
centre-lock wheels are forged aluminium items. Solus GT is a real-life version of the
Just 25 cars will be built, all of which have been McLaren Vision Gran Turismo concept
sold before it hits the track next year.

BUGATTI MISTRAL
PRICE: £4.25million Number made: 99

THE age of W16-engined Bugattis is coming to a close. Having powered


every one of its cars since the firm’s rebirth for the new millennium, the
W16 will see out its final days at the heart of this: the Mistral.
It’s therefore fitting that the Mistral gets the most powerful version of
the quad-turbo motor – a Chiron Super Sport-derived 1,578bhp 8.0-litre
unit, which will propel the Mistral to a top speed of 261mph.
The most significant change revolves around a reshaped carbon-
fibre chassis, which has enabled a visor-style wraparound windscreen.
The first of the 99 Mistrals to be built will hit the road in 2024.

ASTON MARTIN V12 VANTAGE ROADSTER


PRICE: £275,000-plus Number made: 249

FOLLOWING on from its V12 Vantage, Aston Martin has unveiled the V12
Vantage Roadster – an ultra-exclusive drop-top that will be limited to just
249 examples, powered by Aston’s 690bhp 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12.
This means 0-62mph in 2.5 seconds, while the V12 Vantage Roadster’s
roof is almost as quick; it can be operated in less than seven seconds at
speeds of up to 31mph. There are plenty of lightweight components and
wider-track suspension to ensure the V12 Vantage Roadster’s handling can
match its straight-line performance, while chunkier styling and 21-inch
alloy wheels hiding huge brakes have been applied to the new car.

LAMBORGHINI URUS PERFORMANTE


PRICE: £170,260 Number made: N/A

EVOLUTION breeds improvement, and Lamborghini thinks it’s done just


that with this new Urus Performante. The super-SUV’s 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8
engine now produces 657bhp while the car is 20mm lower, 16mm wider and
47kg lighter than the regular Urus. The 0-62mph sprint takes 3.3 seconds,
while the brand has also installed a new Rally driving mode for dirt tracks.
There’s subtly altered styling, too, plus a fresh seat design inside. The new
car is priced from £170,260, and deliveries begin at the end of 2022.

we’re meeting today on the Col de Turini.
With just 1,100cc and not much more than 50bhp to
play with, the 110 R was no rocket ship, and neither was
the 130 RS. However in its class it proved indomitable on
its second appearance on the Monte Carlo in 1977, thanks
to its 142bhp released from an enlarged 1,300cc version
of the standard car’s all-aluminium four-cylinder engine.
The uprated unit had an eight-valve iron cylinder head,
and generated enough power for the driver/navigator
pairing of Václav Blahna and Lubislav Hlávka to finish
first in their class and twelfth overall.

130 RS is otherwise a wonderful period piece.
Sliding into the passenger seat is a bit of a struggle for
a six-footer like me, but once inside, the car has an airy,
spacious feel. As Matthias thumbs the starter button, the
feisty little four-cylinder motor bursts into life behind us.
The roads on the Col de Turini are slick with rain, and
Matthias points out the black rubber streaks from this
year’s Monte Carlo, rally which are still evident from the
event held over this same twisting stretch of tarmac.
It’s immediately obvious that the rear-engine
configuration gives the 130 R terrific traction out of corners,
even on greasy roads, although Matthias confirms things
can get a little tricky in extremis. However, the car is
extremely light by modern standards at around 750kg,
which helps to moderate any pendulum effect, and also
means the rumbustious little engine provides plenty of go.
Acceleration isn’t neck-snapping, but Matthias has the
skills to showcase the car perfectly, his deft actions with
steering, gear lever and pedals producing a beautifully
balanced flow through the corners, and a sense of that
effortless ‘floating’ drive he talked about from his
childhood. The rear engine makes this rally car’s interior
far quieter than many of its contemporaries, too, and helps
to make Matthias’s progress seem almost serene from the
passenger seat – although it may not have seemed quite
that way to the couple of road users we might have startled
coming the other way. Then again, if you live near the Col
de Turini, the sight of a 1970s rally relic drifting on full lock
with its engine blaring is probably par for the course.

INSIDE STORY

110 R road car


THE PRETTY 110 R coupé was not a common sight,
with fewer than 60,000 examples built over its
10-year history, but it was especially rare in its
homeland of Czechoslovakia because around
90 per cent of production went for export.
Powered by a 1.1-litre four-cylinder all-alloy
engine with twin carburettors, the 110 R could
only muster a little over 50bhp, but at a mere
880kg it was a nimble performer and the looks
turned plenty of heads. Upgrades over the car’s
life included a quad-headlamp front end and a
boot spoiler, and the cabin featured plenty of dials
with a sporty steering wheel and seats. Although
once sneered at by Western European sports car
fans, the 110 R is now highly collectible.

130 LR Rally car


THE 130 RS wasn’t the last hurrah for rear-engined
Skoda rally cars, because it was superseded in the
mid 1980s by a new Skoda Group B car called the
130 LR. No longer a variant of the 110 R coupé,
the 130 LR was instead based on the 105/120
saloon, sold in the UK as the Skoda Estelle.
Much of the stylish two-door’s bodywork was
fabricated from aluminium, glass was replaced
with plexiglass, and with a stripped-out interior
the 130 LR tipped the scales at just 730kg. A new
aluminium cylinder head helped the 1.3-litre
engine produce 130bhp, and aided by suspension
upgrades the 130 LR finished 15th in its first
international appearance on the 1985 RAC rally.
Driven by Ladislav Krecek and Borivoj Motl to
sixth place on the San Remo rally in 1986, the 130
LR’s greatest result was the Turkish round of the
European rally championship. The Austrian driver
pairing of Gerhard Kalnay and Günter Tazreiter
won outright, against Group B big guns such as
the Audi Quattro and MG Metro 6R4.

“At 750kg, the 130 RS


is extremely light by
modern standards, which
means the rumbustious

Pushing more upmarket, the Ariya is facing stiff
competition though. Genesis has quickly established
itself as a genuine contender in the premium segment

might of Volkswagen and its ID.5 coupé-SUV.
There are so many questions to answer. Is the ID.5

The 549-litre boot is comfortably the largest here,

it’s only if you intend to cram items right to the
roof will you find any compromise beside its ID.4
sibling. The load area is much deeper than either
of the other cars – the space inside the GV60 is
long and wide but very shallow – so once you’ve
got over the high bumper line, it’s much better
for carrying bulky items. When the rear seats
are folded, space grows to 1,561 litres, which is
only a few litres more than the Genesis.

First aid kits PRODUCTS

How we tested them


UNLESS you’re involved in a crash, most motoring injuries tend to be cuts, scrapes, scalds,
bruises and burns, so we based our test on dealing with these medical issues.
Bigger kits will be kept in the boot, so a hard case will prevent damage and can provide
a useful working surface. Smaller nylon pouches are more suitable for the door pockets
or glovebox. Ideally, the container should be in the international colours of green with a
white cross. We looked for easy-to-understand instructions and a balanced selection of
dressings and bandages, with tough scissors, strong tape and/or safety pins, sterile wipes
and two pairs of gloves. We were pleased to see that none of our samples had antiseptic
PRODUCT cream or cotton wool, because these are a nightmare for paramedics when used together.

Sealey First Aid Kit for Cars,
Taxis & Small Vans SFA02.v2
Price: £18.98 Rating: Contact: 01284 757500, sealey.co.uk

SEALEY’S green nylon pouch was (only just) the second smallest here after
the General Medi, so repacking the contents was tricky, although the twin
plastic pockets helped. We liked the serrated scissors, 10 sterile wipes and
the twin 4x4-inch burn gels. We’d have liked more than just two bandage rolls
(standard and conforming), although we were pleased to see a triangular
bandage, foil blanket and two pairs of nitrile gloves. Overall, it’s not a bad
selection of products, but compared with some others, a bit too expensive.

Boots Travel First Aid Kit 10258543


Price: £12 Rating: Contact: boots.com

THE Boots offering came in a nice rectangular nylon pouch, albeit in blue rather than green. It claimed
to be ideal for cuts, grazes, splinters, blisters and burns, but had only three cleaning wipes and just
one pair of gloves. We did like the specific blister plasters, triangular bandage, four-metre-long
conforming bandage and twin burn gels, plus the Boots was the only one to include an instant ice
pack. However, the instructions supplied were limited and, surprisingly, it was one of only two kits
in this test not to include scissors. For the price, it should have been better equipped.

Price: £13.99 Rating: Contact: boots.com, amazon.co.uk, eurocarparts.com

WE liked this solid, strong green box that was held closed by tough clips. However, the instructions
were very generalised, with nothing relating specifically to this kit. The contents were heavily biased
towards bandages, with four triangular, 12 standard sterile and two eye pads included. In addition
to the six safety pins for the bandages, there were six saline wipes and 20 plasters. Oddly, there
was just one pair of vinyl gloves and no scissors (not ideal with so many bandages), foil blanket or
anything specifically for treating burns. A curious mix that’s not particularly well suited for car use.

Verdict
OUR top two may not have been in the recommended colours,
but they made up for the lapse with a good balance of contents
and price. If you want something more comprehensive and are
prepared to pay a higher price, look for the Blue Dot kit.

there’s a 10,000-mile limit between services, whereas
the diesel models stretch this to 20,000 miles. Services
alternate between minor and major, but it’s worth
shopping around for the best price, because even within
a small area there can be significant variations.
Minor and major services are priced at around £160
and £260 for petrol models (£180 and £300 for N

£210 and £380. All i30 engines are chain-driven.
Once out of warranty, Hyundai dealers offer Base
(£99), Interim (£169) and Full (£229) service options,
each of which come with a year’s breakdown cover.
The i30’s warranty is much longer than the industry
standard, at five years; even more impressively,
there’s no mileage limit (unlike Kia’s, at 100,000 miles).

Recalls
HYUNDAI has recalled the i30 Mk3 on just two
occasions so far. The first time was in February 2019,
but it affected just 11 cars built in September and
October 2018. Although the problem was claimed to
be down to faulty software, which could lead to the
sunroof’s anti-pinch sensor not functioning properly,
Hyundai fitted new sunroof and roller blind motors.
The most recent campaign was launched in August
2021 and this time it was aimed at 171 i30 Mk3s, all
made between June 2020 and September 2021. This
time the problem centred on the tyre pressure
monitoring system, which might fall foul of European
regulations. The solution was to update the system’s
software. Whereas the first recall affected some
examples of the i30 N, the second one didn’t.

Interior
IF you haven’t sat in a Hyundai for a while, you’ll be impressed with how far its interiors
have come in a short space of time. The i30’s cabin has an excellent standard of fit and
finish, while the seats are comfortable and supportive, although headroom is a bit tight
in the back. The pay-off is a large boot that can stow an impressive 395 litres (1,301
with the seats folded), whereas Tourer figures are 602/1,650 litres.

Car Hunter
£3,000 to buy a decent-sized replacement hatchback
THE STYLISH CHOICE

SEAT Ibiza
FOR: Sharp looks, agile handling, logical cabin layout
AGAINST: Patchy quality, back seats could be roomier

IT may be 14 years old, but the SEAT Ibiza still


looks quite fresh. The angular body lines and
tight creases provide a hint of aggression.
It’s not as engaging as the Ford Fiesta of the
time, but the Ibiza’s taut set-up offers a sportier,
more direct feel than many other hatchbacks.
Body roll is kept in check and the steering is
quick, if not overly communicative. The trade-
off for this is a firm ride, but the Ibiza is still
liveable day-to-day. For £3,000, you can buy a
2009 car with a 1.4-litre petrol engine, which
has more performance than the 1.2-litre unit.

THE VALUE CHOICE

Dacia Sandero
FOR: Affordable for its age, big boot, composed ride
AGAINST: Dated cabin, tight rear seats

THE Dacia Sandero is by no means exciting to


look at, but there isn’t much to dislike about
the somewhat bland design, either.
Elderly Renault underpinnings mean the
Sandero falls short dynamically, but it’s good
enough if you can overlook the sloppy gearshift
and steering kickback over bumps. The Dacia
has a compliant ride over poor surfaces, while
the 0.9-litre petrol engine is fairly quiet and
punchy enough. Overall refinement is lacking
at motorway speeds, though. You can pick up a
65,000-mile 2013 Sandero for less than £3,000.

THE FRUGAL CHOICE

Nissan Micra
FOR: Efficient engines, easy to drive, decent rear seats
AGAINST: Unsettled ride, boot could be bigger

DESPITE being launched after the SEAT, time


has arguably been less kind to the Nissan
Micra, and it doesn’t match its more premium
rival out on the road, either. Numb steering and
lifeless handling mean that the Nissan isn’t
enjoyable to guide through corners, and it
lacks composure over bumpy surfaces.
The Micra is much more at home in town,
where it’s easy to place and nippy enough. It’s
frugal, too; the entry-level 1.2-litre engine can
return more than 55mpg, with the supercharged
petrol unit offering 68.9mpg. A 55,000-mile
example from 2012 will cost around £3,000.

distinct camps: real and unreal. Let’s start with
the latter. Switzerland has staged its annual car
exhibition for more than 100 years. Having attended
it 30-odd times (plus all its major rival shows in
Asia, Europe and North America), I can confirm
that the Geneva International Motor Show was,
consistently, the world’s best and most significant
automotive gathering – right up until 2019.
But on August 18 2022, the organisers in effect
pulled the plug on this big and once hugely important
event. Why? “Uncertainties in the global economy

pandemic,” they explained. Tragedy then morphed Mike We go through the ranges and put

brave enough to put in an appearance and face critics like me. He spoke loud and clear to
members of the press, public and industry, with what sounded like genuine enthusiasm
for cars, technology, investment, manufacturers and most other things automotive.
There was an official world record by global (including Hollywood) stunt driving
ace Paul Swift, from Darlington! Plus the world unveiling of the ruggedly impressive-
looking INDe E, from Hailsham. Meanwhile, the Best Cars of the Year stand was
delivered by little ol’ me, from Greenwich.
I put on show the 2021/22 Best Car of the Year Joint World Champions: the Hyundai
Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6. But I also wheeled in some of the contenders for the 2022/23 title(s).
They included an eclectic mix of the Maserati Grecale, Nissan Ariya, VW Multivan,

here. Yet it was on the Best Cars stand. Strange, that! Equally curious is that the cute All-important premium plug-in SUV

Citroen Ami, which I also brought to the show because it’s the best quadricycle in the
world, attracted as much, if not more attention than cars costing five or 10 times more. ●
