2015 Ram Laramie Limited launched

Ram has revealed an updated Laramie Limited trim grade, which it’s calling “the benchmark in truck opulence”.

Perhaps the most striking exterior alteration is the redesigned grille. Just like on the recently-announced 1500 Rebel, the Dodge-legacy crosshairs motif has been replaced by a prominent ‘Ram’ logo. Ignoring the questionable aesthetics, it clearly asserts the Ram brand’s independence.

Adding some glitz are the chrome-covered door mirror caps, side mouldings and tailgate badge. The front and rear bumpers can also have the same finish but, on the 1500 model at least, that’s going to be a cost option. A set of polished 20” wheels completes the look.

On the inside, the Laramie Limited features black leather upholstery with grey piping, Black Argento real wood trim and unique instruments. Standard equipment includes heated seats, a heated steering wheel, Berber carpet floor mats, a reversing camera and an 8.4” screen for the Uconnect telematics system.

Sales of the new Ram 1500 Laramie Limited are due to begin during the second quarter of this year. 2500 and 3500 versions will follow later in 2015.

Ford launches Fiesta Metal

Image
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

Image
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. The body shell is stripped back to bare metal before it
