Dear Omss,
It’s been a busy week on evo.co.uk. Attracting most attention is our review of the Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0. Can the best car of the last year really get any better? Review, pictures and video here.
There are two new convertible supercars this week in the shape of the Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster and Audi R8 GT Spyder. Which would you have? There are also new details of the new Mini Coupe, official pictures of the new BMW 1-series, Vauxhall Astra GTC hot hatch and Volkswagen Golf R Cabriolet, and shock news of a Skoda Fabia vRS speedster.
It’s the Isle of Man TT this week, and Subaru has chosen to smash the four-wheeled lap record of the circuit in a WRX STI saloon. We’ve also got two features on one of the race’s biggest celebrities, Guy Martin. Meet Guy and his Aston Martin V12 Vantage here, or see him trying out rallying in a WRC Ford Focus. Bonneville speed week is another highlight of the motoring calendar, and this year we’re competing. evo’s Richard Meaden will be aiming for some Salt Flat records in the fastest Skoda ever, a seriously pumped-up Octavia vRS. Find out more here. Don’t forget to book your place on one of evo’s 2011 track events. We’ve some great competitions on evo.co.uk at the moment, too – you can even win a replica of a BTCC Volkswagen Golf GTI touring car! We've also loads of free downloads here, including a McLaren F1 digital magazine.
