We were on the lookout for a smooth rental highway runner on a restrained budget, but something with more poise than a regular Camry.

The Aston Martin DBS featured in previous Bond films was never a slouch. The Queen’s secret agent- James Bond, always gets custom built sports cars, usually with guns! And Aston Martin is reportedly crafting the new DB10 to serve Bond in the upcoming movie next year.
Let’s face it, the Audi Q3 is not a big seller in the GCC. We never even drove one before either. But we went all the way to Munich, Germany to try out the facelifted 2015 model. And to be honest, it’s a pretty nice car. Especially in RS Q3 form.

While German luxury carmakers created the small premium crossover segment with half-hearted attempts like the BMW X3 and the Mercedes-Benz GLK, it was the Range Rover Evoque that blazed a path by showing that these things can actually be desirable rather than just be dull-looking wagons for soccer moms in Europe, considering the German early-birds never caught on in the GCC. Later attempts like the overpriced Porsche Macan are much more style-conscious, and the Americans are now trying their hand at this game too. This here is the 2015 Lincoln MKC, and it’s now on sale in the UAE.
Dubai Police has taken possession of a Lexus GS police car.
Audi has been carrying on with a set-in-stone corporate styling theme for the past decade now, with just minor facelifts to keep them fresh. Now the German carmaker is toying with a new design direction, as previewed in the Audi Prologue concept.
