The Ferrari F355 was built from May 1994 to 1999. It is an evolution of the Ferrari 348 and was replaced by the Ferrari 360. It is a mid-engined, rear wheel drive V8-powered 2-seat coupe. One major difference between the V8 in the 348 and that in the F355, apart from the displacement increase from 3.4 to 3.5 L, is that the F355 features a 5-valve per cylinder head and that it is considerably more powerful. At launch, two models were available: the coupe Berlinetta, and the rarer targa topped GTS. The Spider (convertible) version was introduced in 1995. In 1998 the Formula One style paddle gear shift semi-automatic transmission was introduced with the Ferrari 355 F1

The Phaeton was VW chairman Ferdinand Piech's backlash against Mercedes new low-cost A-Class, putting this small Mercedes in direct competion with VW's Golf.

The name Phaeton derives from Phaëton, the son of Phoebus and Helios in Greek mythology — and also a type of horse drawn carriage. The Phaeton's platform, the Volkswagen Group D1 platform, is shared with the Bentley Continental GT and Bentley Continental Flying Spur.

Launched in the U.K in 2008, Auto-Detail and Bespoke Motorworks were lucky to be one of the first to see the new coupe in May '07 when we visited the Audi factory in Germany as part of our companies ongoing research & development program. The origins of Audi the company traces its origins back to 1899 and August Horch (pronounced 'Hoik'). The first Horch automobile was produced in 1901 in Zwickau. In 1909, Horch was forced out of the company he had founded. He then started a new company in Zwickau but continued using the Horch brand. His former partners sued him for trademark infringement and a German court determined that the Horch brand belonged to his former company. August Horch was forced to refrain from using his own family name in his new car business. Horch immediately called a meeting at the apartment of Franz Fikentscher to come up with a new name for his company. During this meeting Franz's son was quietly studying Latin in a corner of the room. Several times he looked like he was on the verge of saying something but would just swallow his words and continue working, until he finally blurted out, "Father – audiatur et altera pars... wouldn't it be a good idea to call it Audi instead of Horch?". "Horch!" in German means "Hark!" or "listen", which is "Audi" in Latin. This is just one of any stories of how Audi got its name.

Remade by the talented craftsman at Bespoke Motorworks, this DB4 front end was lovingly recreated as part of a customers restoration program. Please call us with your requirements, our ex Aston-Martin panel beater will be happy to assist you. The DB4 was sold from 1958 through to 1963. It was an entirely different car from the DB Mark III it replaced, though the 3.7 L engine was externally visually related to the 2.9 L unit found in that car. The 3.7 L engine, designed by Tadek Marek, was a dual overhead cam straight-6. It was prone to overheating at first, but the 240 hp produced by the twin-SU carburettor version made buyers forgive this unfortunate trait. Disc brakes were fitted all around, with early Dunlops being replaced by Girlings. The lightweight superleggera (tube-frame) body was designed by Carrozzeria Touring in Milan, and its Continental looks caused a sensation on its unveiling at the 1958 London Motor Show. Although the design and construction techniques were Italian, the DB4 was the first Aston to be built at the company's Newport Pagnell works in Buckinghamshire, England.

Bespoke Porsche 996 with revised interior, alcantara replacing leather on the dashboard, console, door cards and seat centres, all were restitched in contrasting silver thread. Black plastics were replaced with sportier genuine carbon fibre. The seat backs were painted to match the bodywork colour with the coat hooks replaced with gloss painted Porsche insignia. The exterior was reworked with the rear wheels spaced out by another 10mm and bumper vents and grills were painted to the customers exact choice of grey metallic. The rear badges were also re-worked and colour coded to the grille.

Even new Ferraris often need detailing to remove bonded transportation contaminates and to correct the work of the valeters who prepared the car for delivery. This 599 finished in Grigio Silverstone was clayed to remove harmful bonded contaminates. To assess the degree of contamination on your own cars paintwork simply rub your fingers gently over the freshly washed paint, to magnify the sensation place a piece of cellophane or a thin plastic bag beneath your finger tips and gently rub you fingers across the paintwork, if there is contamination this will be felt as a gritty texture. The clay bar will remove this texture leaving a glass smooth, ultra clean finish, This contamination cannot be removed through washing or polishing. We then lightly machine polished to remove minor swirls and holograms. The treatment was finished with two protective layers of Zymol Ital carnauba wax. The Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano (internal code F139) is Ferrari's 2-seat Gran Turismo flagship model, replacing the 575 M Maranello in 2006 as a 2007 model. The 599 GTB debuted at the Geneva Motor Show on February 28, 2006. Styling of the 599 GTB was handled by Pininfarina, under the direction of Ferrari stylist, Frank Stephenson. It is named for its total engine displacement (5999 cc), Gran Turismo Berlinetta nature, and the Fiorano Circuit test track used by Ferrari.

Dino named in honor of Enzo's late son Alfredo 'Dino' Ferrari. This Dino was first owned by Rodger Daltry of 'The Who' and is currently for sale, please call for more information. The Dino brand ( 1968-1976 ) was meant to be used for cars with engines that had fewer than 12 cylinders, reserving the Ferrari name for the V-12 and flat 12 models. The Dino name was retired after that point, in favour of conventional Ferrari branding. The Dino brand was an attempt by Ferrari to produce a relatively low cost sports car by using components from other vehicles. The Dino models used Ferrari racing naming designation of displacement and cylinder count with two digits for the size of the engine and the third digit to represent the number of cylinders, i.e., 246 being a 2.4 liter 6 cylinder and 308 being a 3.0 liter 8 cylinder. The Dino 246 was the first Ferrari model produced in high numbers. It is lauded by many for its intrinsic driving qualities and groundbreaking design. In 2004, Sports Car International placed the car at number six on its list of Top Sports Cars of the 1970s. Motor Trend Classic placed the 206/246 at number seven in their list of the 10 "Greatest Ferraris of all time".

The latest incarnation of the 911 Turbo, finished in rare Carmine red.The 997 Turbo debuted in February 2006 at the Geneva Motor Show. It uses a new front bumper with LED parking lights in a horizontal bar through the air intake. The fog lights are moved to the corners of the bumpers. Large air intakes in front of and behind the rear wheels are other obvious visual cues. The retractable rear wing is also one of the highlights, a feature which has been available on the 996 Turbo as well. The engine is reported to be based on the rugged and very reliable 964/GT1 design at 3.6 L with power output at 473 bhp. The turbochargers will include BorgWarner's new Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG), which uses guide vanes located in front of the turbine wheel that modulates inflow angle and speed. The 911 Turbo is the first petrol production car to feature variable geometry turbines (previously only available to diesel engined vehicles), however a similar approach was used successfully by Garrett Systems starting in 1989 with the Shelby CSX that utilized a computer controlled variable nozzles instead. When equipped with the optional Sport Chrono package, the 911 Turbo gains the ability to overboost for 10 seconds, increasing peak torque over a narrow rev range. According to official Porsche figures, it produces 480 hp (358 kW), accelerates 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.7 seconds with the manual transmission, and a has 0-100 km/h (62 mph) time of just 3.4 seconds with the automatic Tiptronic S transmission, which is more than enough to edge out its current rival from Ferrari, the F430. It has also recorded a 0-60 mph time of 3.2 seconds at the hands of US motoring publication Motor Trend—eclipsing all of its major competitors and even Porsche's own Carrera GT supercar. The 997 Turbo has a top speed of 193 mph.

The last of the air cooled 911's, fast becoming a modern classic. One of the most noteworthy changes in the 993 over all preceding 911s is the implementation of an all-alloy multi-arm rear suspension attached to an all-alloy subframe. Its design was derived from the project 989, a four-door sedan which never went into production, and was later continued in the 993's successor, type 996. It required the mentioned widening of the rear wheel arches, which itself lent to the 993's new-found stability. This suspension improved the 993s cornering abilities, making it more direct and more stable and helping to reduce the infamous tendency to oversteer if throttle was lifted during hard cornering, a trait of earlier 911s. The 993 was the first generation of 911s to have a standard 6-speed manual transmission — previous cars, except for the exotic Porsche 959, had 4- or 5-speed gearboxes. As the 993 was capable of speeds exceeding 168 mph, a sixth gear became necessary in order to adequately cover the whole speed range.
