Range Rover Vogue's T.V. screen

Now, looking at the heading you might wonder why I am writing about something so insignificant, but unlike other cars, the Range Rover Vogue's T.V. screen is so different. With most cars the T.V. screen looks the same from wherever you are in the car but with the Vogue the screen is different because if you are using the sat-nav but your child, in the passenger seat, wants to watch a movie, you dont need to spend ages arguing, because from where the driver is sitting they can see the sat-nav but in the passenger seat, you can see the movie. It isn't what you usually find in a car.

BMW badge

There is more to the BMW badge then you might think. Before BMW became a car manufacturer they built planes. When they went into the car industry they designed their badge on a flying planes propellers. The blue bit is the sky and the white area is the propeller frantically spinning.

Mazda MX5 minor weight loss.

When the new Mazda MX5 was due to come out a few years ago, the boffins at Mazda thought about giving the new MX5 a weight loss, so what they did was scrape 84g off the rear-view mirror, so if you buy two packets of crisps you've undone their good work.

BMW- kidney grill

BMW have fitted all of their cars with their signature kidney grills. Even the vintage ones, that is partly how you can tell a BMW from any other car. Even though the shape has altered a bit through-out the ages, their cars still have two grills right next to each other.

Mercedes ML AMG with two plaques

A little while ago when the 1997 ML was still in production a man bought an AMG Mercedes ML. When the AMG boffins get a Mercedes car they turn it into an AMG and the main engineer puts a silver plaque on the engine with his name autographed onto it. So this man bought one of the ML AMG's and when the engineer went off for a tea brake, he fell down the stairs and broke his arm. He needed a lot of time to recover so Mercedes-Benz phoned up the man who bought the ML and explained what happened but the buyer said "I don't care, I just want my car." So Mercedes had to get another engineer to finish off the car and to this day, that ML still has two plaques under its bonnet.

Nissan Leaf

The Nissan Leaf is Nissan's first electric car. Nissan say that the wing mirrors on their cars are very large and when you drive along the wind howls on the wing mirrors so because the leaf is an electric car ad should make no noise, they have shaped the Leaf's headlamps so when the wind hits the headlamps the wind is diverted from the wing mirrors and is blown to the side of the car.

Maybach models

The luxury brand Maybach, owned by Mercedes-Benz, have a very clever way of naming their cars. The two current cars you can get are the 57 and 62. Now 57 means 5.7 meters long and 62 means 6.2 meters long. They are very big cars and if one went past you, yo would notice.
