The Bombardier Can-Am Spyder Trike takes quad biking to a new level.
This ultimate in quad biking, boys toy’s is high performance, road going and can accelerate quicker than a Bentley. The only fly in the ointment is the basic model price tag of £8,000 ($16,000). Oh well, I hope Santa has a very big sack this year!!

The Tramontana is described as “half jet fighter, half grand prix car”. Retailing at £500,000 ($1,000,000) I would describe it as expensive!
However, for your money you get to boast that your Tramontana is one of only 12 on the planet. Although resembling a F1 car, you do have the option of a one or two seat configuration that will propel you to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds reaching a top speed of 220 mph.

Iconic cars from years gone by still hold great affection for many. The problem is that many original models are either too expensive for the man on the street or require a full time mechanic to keep them on the road.
The solution is to buy replica vehicles. Something like this beautiful C-Type Jaguar could be yours for a very reasonable £53,000 ($106,000). I say reasonable because the originals go for significant sums.
Beautifully crafted, hand made, aluminium body and replica chassis make the this a genuine doppelganger for Jaguar’s 1951 Le Mans winner, but with the advantage of modern brakes and suspension.
Any six cylinder XK series engine can be fitted but the most powerful (a 320bhp 4.2 litre) gives 140 mph top speed and 0-60 in 5.5 seconds. The replica C-Type comes with authentic single driver’s door or two door guise.
Nostalgia cars build these masterpieces from scratch and say:
“Witin every Nostalgia C Type is something unique and totally rewarding, forged from an understanding of what a true hand built sports car should be, combined with simple innovation and Jaguar inspired track and road success. As always every owner is encouraged to take an active part in the final specification of their Nostalgia C Type. We believe in building a life long relationship with both our customers and each of our cars.”
Gaining a realistic gaming experience is all the rage these days, particularly with the advent of the Nintendo Wii.
The GamePod GT2 takes game realism to a new level by drawing upon professional drivers to provide a realistic feel and design.
Lauded as “the original and still the best range of racing game seats on the market” the GamePod range has been designed to replicate the authentic driving position of today’s race cars.
Compatible with Play Station and Xbox with features that include:

All of us who loved the iconic “Back to the Future” series of films must have dreamt of owning a Delorean at some point. Well, now that dream can become a reality with production of the original DMC-12 being re-booted after a 25 year absence.
The Delorean Motor Company are said to be producing just 20 examples per annum.
The distinctive, original version was unfortunately beset by all manor of mechanical problems resulting in it’s eventual demise. The good news is that the new production run has been tweaked and tested to meet all modern safety standards.
Delorean are marketing the new DMC-12 through select dealerships at a price of £29,000 ($58,000).
