For those that have never heard of Bitter, it's a small German firm specializing in luxury and sporty cars and has been in the business for just over four decades. Established in 1971 by Erich Bitter, a former race car driver who eventually started a tuning business and then went into car...

For many readers it may seem like sacrilege, but for a company specializing in the sale of electric car components, in this case TGMY, converting a Toyota GT 86 (sold here as the Scion FR-S) to run on batteries is certainly an interesting way of promoting your wares.

While a Bentley may not top our collective lists of aspirational automobiles, there is one absolute certainty: no motoring enthusiast, regardless of brand preference, would be disappointed if given a Bentley Continental Supersports coupe as a holiday gift. The stumbling block, for most of us...
