Duster Adventure limited edition

It looks like Dacia is attempting to appeal to more aspirational SUV buyers with its new Duster Adventure limited edition. Based on the existing Ambiance trim grade, it combines distinctive looks with some useful additional features.

On the outside, the specification includes a pair of roof-mounted spotlights, front and rear bash plates, privacy glass and a unique front grille. The effect is finished off by a choice of Pearl Black or Glacier White paintwork, some very large graphics and a set of motorsport-inspired red arrows that indicate the towing and jacking points.

They may not be the last word in luxury, but the Adventure’s rubber floor mats are at least practical for those who fancy a spot of adventuring. Also fitted is a semi-integrated Garmin satellite navigation system that can display topographic mapping for when the road runs out. The seats meanwhile come upholstered in black cloth with white stitching and prominent compass motifs on the backrests.

Powered by a 108 bhp (81 kW / 110 PS) 1.5 litre diesel engine, the Dacia Duster Adventure will be available with either front- or all-wheel drive.

Sales are due to begin next month, but it’s unlikely that this particular special edition is going to be offered in the UK.

‘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

Kawasaki W800 revealed

19 January 2011 Update: For confirmed Kawasaki W800 pricing, please click here . Kawasaki has unveiled its retro W800 at the Cologne Intermot motorcycle show. There are a few differences between this production-ready version and first image of the W800 , which was released last month. The most obvious is that the limey-green paint has been ditched, replaced by a much more attractive dark green and silver metallic colour scheme. Other changes include the seat unit, which looks a bit plusher but loses its contrast piping around the edge. There are now knee pads on each side of the fuel tank, too, that sit just behind very large chrome ‘W’ emblems. No surprises in the engine department - it’s an air-cooled twin with a capacity of 773 cc, driving through a five-speed gearbox. Unfortunately Kawasaki hasn’t released any power or torque figures yet, but given that its W650 predecessor managed to get 49 bhp (37 kW / 50 PS) from its 675 cc, somewhere approaching 60 bhp (44 kW / 60
