Keating SKR Review


Keating Supercars is a car with no heritage, no history, no awareness and it is a from-scratch brand, but with high aspirations – to take on not just Lotus and Porsche, but Lamborghini, Ferrari and Aston Martin.
Keating claimed three essential developments aims during the car’s long eight-year gestation: the usual ones about balance and exclusivity, plus a new one: reliability. Long service intervals were mentioned more times than we could count, quality said to be an absolute imperative.
As you do power outputs, from the Corvette V8 engines. The standard 6.0-litre V8 is joined by a 505 bhp 7.0-liter, plus two supercharged units pushing power up to 656 bhp. A Porsche 5-speed trans axle channels the power rearwards, to heavily-worked 335-section tyres on surprisingly small 18-inch rims.
I think that this will be a real success!

Amazing Amphibious Platypus Jeep

If you want to buy an amphibious vehicle with assault potential but don’t want something as big as the DUKW, perhaps this custom Jeep will be perfect for you. Built by the folks at the Amphibious Vehicle Design Studio, the Platypus Jeep is a paragon of on-road and in-water capabilities.
The floating four-wheeler runs with a turbo diesel engine and is capable of 110 KPH on the road and 10.5 km/h in the water. The hull is designed to work in wave heights up to 1.5 meters and bottoms with a slight 0.75 meter draft depth. I can already see myself in one of these amazing car-boat. Do you like it?

Vauxhall presents the new Insignia

Opel or Vauxhall presents the new competitor for Mondeo, Insignia, and a great model that it is 21 cm longer, 5 cm wider and boasts an extra 35 mm between the axles, compared with the outgoing Vectra.
Chassis-wise, the Insignia will pack a revised version of GM’s IDS active suspension system and optional adaptive all-wheel drive. At launch, engine options will include three petrol lumps and a pair of oil burners. The petrol options range from a 140 hp 4-pot to a 260 hp V6. The diesel option takes the predictable form of a 2.0 liter 4 banger in 130 hp or 160 hp trim. Vauxhall has not put a date on the arrival of either the EcoFLEX model or the inevitable VXR high performance machine.
Official interior images have not been released. The Insignia will initially be available in hatchback and saloon body styles. No official info as yet on prices, speeds and feeds. Do you like it?
