Because it is so utterly ridiculous (and awesome) here is a small photo gallery of the Veneno aircraft carrier launch for you to enjoy. And possibly print out and stick on your wall, if you are a 13 year-old boy. Or perhaps a 41 year-old man with a very strong inner 13 year-old boy… Also, […]
The Lamborghini Veneno is utterly ridiculous. So it is completely fitting that it was debuted in the most ridiculous way possible: in Abu Dhabi, on an aircraft carrier. The “reveal” (of a car we have already seen literally millions of pictures of) took place on an Italian aircraft carrier (Italy has a navy?) Nave Covour yesterday […]
Got more money than you reasonably know how to spend? Well then, you could either chuck some OVERSTEER’s way or you could blow a chunk of it buying your very own, one-of-a-kind prototype bespoke police car. Seriously.

Well, in a sense… Here is a teaser – there will shortly be an OVERSTEER game! That’s right, coming soon – initially on iOS – will be the OVERSTEER racing game. We can’t tell you much more about it at this stage, other than it will be utterly awesome and huge amounts of fun. We […]
Seriously… there is nothing that needs saying… Just watch.
Clearly having a fleet of some of the sexiest and most expensive supercars in the world isn’t enough for the Dubai police department – now they are turning to pimped-out SUVs. They have just added a Brabus B63S-700 Widestar to the fleet. Packing a Brabus-tweaked 5.5-litre biturbo V8, the Brabus beast is good for 522kW […]
Ford has announced the comeback of the Falcon XR8 and, in doing so, will make the awesome supercharged V8 ‘Miami’ engine available in the Falcon for the first (and last) time! The XR8 was dropped in 2010 when FPV moved to the supercharged engine (the old V8 no longer met emission standards), meaning that no […]
