2015 GMC Sierra HD All Terrain announced

As its name implies, the new All Terrain version of GMC’s 2015 Sierra HD is aimed at those who need a pick-up with some extra go-anywhere ability.

To help fulfil that requirement, four-wheel drive comes as standard. Also fitted is the Z71 Off Road package which consists of hill descent control, a skid plate and Rancho twin-tube dampers.

The Sierra HD All Terrain certainly offers plenty of choice. Available in 2500HD and 3500HD guises, buyers can opt for either a double cab or a crew cab. Furthermore there’s a choice of SLE or SLT trim grades, plus the engine line-up comprises a 6.0 litre Vortec petrol V8 and a 6.6 litre Duramax turbo diesel.

Sales in North America are due to begin this summer.

Ford launches Fiesta Metal

The hot ST should hopefully be arriving in showrooms soon but, until that happens, the quickest Fiesta available will be the just-announced Metal special edition. Based on the existing three-door Zetec S, it comes complete with Ford’s Tuning Pack that lifts the 1.6 litre Duratec engine’s power by 13 bhp (8 kW / 14 PS) to 132 bhp (96 kW / 134 PS). Although top speed is virtually unchanged at 121 mph (195 km/h), the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) acceleration time is slashed from 9.9 to 8.7 seconds. To go with the extra performance, the looks have been spruced up too. There are 17” black alloy wheels, twin chrome exhausts and a silver finish at the front for the aerofoil, grille surround and fog light bezels. Paintwork choice comprises Frozen White, Midnight Sky Metallic or Panther Black Metallic. The interior hasn’t been ignored, either. It gets Ebony Black leather sports seats, Piano Black trim, stainless steel door scuff plates and unique floor mats. Only 1,000 examples of the Ford F

‘New’ Jensen Interceptor

There’s something very retro-chic about using a classic car as a daily driver, but it’s an activity that comes with the permanent risk that aged mechanicals might expire at any time. Hence the concept of regeneration by substituting ancient components with fresh replacements. Handling, brakes and reliability are all dramatically improved, while the outward appearance remains unmolested. Various models have received this treatment in recent years, including numerous Jaguars and even the Shelby G.T.500CR . Now it’s the turn of the Jensen Interceptor, a car originally built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Jensen International Automotive , based in Thame, Oxfordshire, has just delivered the first of its Interceptor R models. And, with an annual production figure of 18 cars, it’s a product that will be very exclusive. In a process lasting around five months, each Interceptor R is totally rebuilt from a suitable donor car.
