Opel creates the O-Team Zafira Life concept

Opel Special Vehicles took inspiration from The A-Team for its latest project. The O-Team Zafira Life – which is based on the ‘Medium’ production model – pays homage to the custom GMC van that appeared in the TV show.

As well as a white, neon yellow and dark blue colour scheme, the exterior features a front nudge bar, extended side sills, window decals and a bespoke roof spoiler. 20” BBS lightweight alloy wheels, Michelin Cup 2 tyres, better brakes and adjustable air suspension are part of the specification, too.

Inside, the front seats are taken from the Insignia GSi, while the second and third rows each have a pair of rotating captain’s chairs. Leather and Alcantara upholstery further adds to the special ambiance.

Thanks to a deceptive sound module, bystanders might be fooled into thinking that a V8 petrol engine is fitted. In fact, power comes from a 2.0 litre diesel unit, which sends 174 bhp (130 kW / 177 PS) and 400 Nm (295 lb/ft) to the front wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission.

The O-Team Zafira Life is a one-off for now. However, because all of the components have been approved by TÜV, some replicas could easily follow.

Saab 9-3 Aero Carlsson

Image
Saab has got experience of producing special editions in honour of rally driver Erik Carlsson, having previously named versions of the 900 and 9000 after him during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Now it has decided to do it again, this time to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the Swedish driver’s first win in Britain’s RAC Rally, which was achieved at the wheel of a Saab 96. Thankfully, the company has resisted the urge to just bung some fancy alloys and a few other extra bits onto something like a mid-range diesel model. Instead, it appears to have resurrected the limited edition Turbo X from a couple of years ago, as the new edition similarly features a turbocharged 2.8 litre petrol V6, Saab’s XWD all-wheel drive system and a six-speed automatic gearbox. The result is the 9-3 Aero Carlsson saloon, which turns out to be a very rapid car. With 276 bhp (205 kW / 280 PS) and a healthy 400 Nm of torque, the 0-60 mph (96 km/h) dash takes just 6.9 seconds. But it’s in the mid-range t...

American spec Fiat 500

Image
Fiat has released the first details and images of the North American specification 500. The tiny city car will be available in Pop, Lounge and Sport trim levels, and is distinguished from the European version by its more aggressive front and rear bumpers, bigger grille and flared sills. Another unique feature is the engine. Fiat has decided to use the 1.4 MultiAir unit currently found in models such as the Fiat Punto Evo and Alfa Romeo MiTo. Perhaps it felt that using the forthcoming two-cylinder TwinAir in the American 500 would have been too much for markets there to take? There’s no word yet on what power output the MultiAir will have, although in its current applications it comes with either 103 bhp (77 kW / 105 PS), 133 bhp (99 kW / 135 PS) or 167 bhp (125 kW / 170 PS). Similarly, prices have yet to be confirmed, but hopefully both details will have been sorted out by the time the order book for the 500 hatch opens later this year. For convertible fans, the 500C is due ...
