We got the bug, Alfa-rites
We have always loved Alfa Romeo, it has a special place in every car fans heart, you pause every time you see one drive down the road, some even squeal like a little girl.
Well we did when we saw what was coming. Some say when you get exposed to an Alfa you get the Alfa bug, thats what we have, and have it badly. Alfa-rites.
First we saw the MiTo and fell inlove, then it was the Giulietta. Even VW caught the Alfa Bug.
Well I think we have it again. Its called the 4C, yes, little sister of the 8C.
Its the same size as the little MiTo, but its not a bad thing.
2 seater with a weight of 850kg. Add the 4 cylinder turbo charged 1.7 from the Giulietta and we get a real sports Alfa. The engine is going to be placed in the middle with rear-wheel drive, so its a super-car layout.
Its beautiful with speed and design in mind. This car will be the car to have when it comes out... In 2012.
Alfa do want to sell it all over the world, so hopefully it will be sold here in S.A...
I know if it gets sold here I will be buying one.

Now along with the LEAF and also potential world car of the year winner is the new Audi A8 and BMW 5 series. We hope that all the fancy-ness of the A8 will take it to top spot. Now its not that we are against the LEAF, we think that electric power is the past and that Hydrogen-full-cell should get a move on. We hate the ugliness of the BMW. The A8 is perfect.

Bigger news is that Range Rover has given in, They announced the Range_e, which is based on the Range Rover sport with a 3.0 liter V6, but this time the V6 has an electric engine that comes with, making the Range Rover a Hybrid.

The luxury car brand has felt the blow in these times with petrol being hated so much so they put that saying into use, "If you can't beat them, Join'em." So Rolls Royce now has a fully electric Phantom.
