Want to impress your mates on the paintball stag do… or just wipe everyone out firing 15 balls a second? Well you need to get a Paintball Panza then.

These bad boys may set you back £8,000 (no paintballs included) but must be serious fun. They hold a single occupant and take up to 3 months to build to your spec and comes with an integral roll cage - though you’d need to tip thing over 60 degrees to roll it - as well as an engine fire-wall.

If you know your bling and your motors then you’ll know the global brand Asanti. They specialize in tire rims for some very flash cars and probably have the biggest database of rappers (as clients) on the planet!

In 2006 Asanti unveiled the world’s most expensive rims which they showcased at SEMA auto show at a massive $1,000,000 US dollars.  The four tire rims have 110,000 carats of genuine gemstones and comes with a free Bentley Continental GT.

Now that’s a bargain!

If you don’t already know, Britain is planning to introduce a road charge scheme which will replace the current road tax scheme. A satellite will track how many miles you do and you’ll be charged accordingly.

Some bright spark has come up with a great little idea to scupper these plans with a £700 GBP illegal gadget that jams monitoring signals. It works in the same way that a Stealth Bomber can be undetected on radar and experts are showing concern about them.

Before you go and buy one, you can get up to 2 years inside for having one!

The alarming thing is that car thieves could also use the gadget to overcome anti-theft tracking systems, which activate when a vehicle is stolen.

The Department for Transport said its road-pricing scheme will be introduced only when ‘we can find technology that is robust against attack’.

The new third edition Porsche 911 Turbo cabriolet will shortly be hitting the streets. As an avid Porsche fan I had to tell you all about it.

image

With a top speed of 193mph it puts it at one of the fastest road cars around. For all you motor geeks it has a twin turbocharged, 3.6-litre flat-six develops 473bhp at 6,000rpm and 457lb ft of torque at just 1,850rpm. It also has a six-speed manual gearbox equating to 0-62mph in four seconds, but if you opt for the £1,800 triptonic gearbox you can expect to shave 0.2 seconds off that!
