Intelligent, practical, elegant Kitchen storage gets stylish with innovative solutions from ALNO. ften when choosing a new kitchen, it can be easy to focus solely on the aesthetics of the project.

Visual features such as the range, colour or finish can cause you to overlook vital elements like storage, which make your kitchen functional. ALNO believes that kitchen storage is essential, and that not only should it be practical, it should look attractive too.

Offering a variety of intelligent storage solutions for its stylish kitchen ranges, ALNO ensures that your kitchen is easily accessible, organised and elegant, making time spent in this room enjoyable and stress-free.

When planning your kitchen layout it is important to consider the space you have available, not only for storing food, but also for utensils, tableware, appliances and cleaning products. A useful tip to help identify your personal storage needs is to create a detailed list of the current contents of your kitchen.

Think about which appliances you regularly use and need access to, and

O

NS • page 8

consider any items in your kitchen that need storage. Whatever your requirements, ALNO offers a complete service from design to installation and can creatively plan and install the best storage solutions to fit into your kitchen and around your lifestyle.

Extra-high storage units are extremely spacious and are perfect for keeping dangerous items, such as sharp cutlery, from the grasp of small hands.

Kitchen larders are ideal for kitchens with little space, and a tall larder with pull-out shelving will give you easy access and a clear view of its contents.

If you are trying to create a sociable kitchen, an island can provide seating as well as a great storage solution.

Peninsulas can work particularly well in small kitchens, and can be designed with deep pull-out drawers boasting plenty of storage space, whilst improving the linear flow and creating the illusion of a bigger room.

The Le Mans corner unit, a kidneyshaped carousel with up to four shelves, is an innovative storage idea that

prevents precious space at the back of your cupboards from being sacrificed.

Available as an interior for any ALNO kitchen range, the Le Mans unit cleverly swings out to allow you access to every item stored in your cupboards – and with height adjustable shelves it is versatile too, adapting to your changing storage needs.

Come and discover all of ALNO’s inspiring storage possibilities at The ALNO Store Leeds. The flagship store offers free parking and is open Monday to Friday 9.30am–5pm, Saturday 9.30am–4.30pm, and Sunday by appointment only. Appointments can be made by calling 0113 3315 115, or emailing leeds@alnouk.com.

PROMOTIONLEEDS BRADFORD AIRPORT

Flybe and Monarch (right) are just two of the airlines introducing new services from Leeds Bradford Airport

Time for take-off Summer holidays beckon as Leeds Bradford Airport offers more choice to travellers. eeds Bradford Airport announces yet more choice for holidaymakers and overseas property owners to make the most of the holiday season – this year and beyond.

The summer season is now here, signalling the time when many people travel for their annual breaks. While you may be thinking ahead and preparing for your upcoming holiday travel plans, Leeds Bradford Airport is working hard to secure even more choice for passengers next summer.

The airport, which is set to have its busiest year yet with 3.5 passengers travelling through its terminal, has recently announced the biggest ever Jet 2 and Jet 2Holidays programme in summer 2017.

A total of 44 destinations across 14 countries will be featured from Leeds Bradford with Jet 2 and Jet2 Holidays alone, including new route additions to Costa Brava, Naples and Berlin.

Thomas Cook are also returning to the airport from summer next year, flying to popular Mediterranean destinations; Mahon, Tenerife and Alicante to name just a few. This welcome addition to the Leeds Bradford portfolio has been introduced to meet increased demand from travellers from

L

across Yorkshire.

Thomson and First Choice have also announced they will be increasing their flying programme from summer 2017; with a new route Faro and more flights to Ibiza. Monarch have also recently introduced the popular destination of Malaga to their programme.

Leeds Bradford is set to have a record breaking summer season this year, connecting Yorkshire with a wide variety of new destinations. Aurigny, a new airline to the airport, have just started flying to Guernsey four times weekly and Flybe are due to start a three weekly service to Newquay route in the Autumn.

Tony Hallwood, Aviation Development Director, said: “It’s an exciting time to be travelling to and from

the airport, connecting passengers from across the region quickly to their destination of choice. The great news for passengers is that Leeds Bradford has twice been named the top for on time performance in recent months.”

Meanwhile, to meet demand, the airport is also investing in car parking facilities as well as in its terminal, having recently undergone Yorkshire Premier Lounge upgrades; all making journeys even more relaxing for jetsetters heading off to faraway shores.

LA BODEGA

Kerala Restaurant is where you will find the culinary art of cooking Kerala cuisine at its best.

Kerala, the land also known as Gods own country, has a history of more than 2000 years of culinary art; a blend of indigenous and foreign dishes adopted to the local taste.

Kerala cuisine is split into Travancore and Northern Malabar, vegetarian and non-vegetarian including seafood.

In addition to historical diversity, cultural influence of Hindus, Muslims and Christian have contributed towards the unique dishes in Kerala cuisine. The availability of indigenously cultivated spices and herbs such as cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, green and red peppers, cloves, garlic,

cumin seeds, coriander, turmeric, mint, fenugreek, cashew nuts, etc have played a great role in formulating Kerala’s unique cuisine.

Coconut, plantain, various unique fruits and vegetables, tamarind, lime, kodampuli (garcinia cambogia) which is available in Kerala, have their own special role in formulating regional dishes.

In Kerala Restaurant, we bring to you a taste from the Travancore and Malabar region. You will be able to find a blend of vegetarian and nonvegetarian dishes, mild, medium and for the adventurous spicy!

We started trading in Shipley near Bradford, UK in 2011; the first Southern Indian restaurant inYorkshire. We also cater for special diet requirements such as gluten free, vegan, and we use much less oil so you can enjoy healthy curry with no compromise in taste.

But if you’re in search of a premier sporting venue that can offer numerous full HD TVs and large projector screens, great food and beer, Shooters – part of the Bierkeller entertainment complex – should be your number one choice.

There is also the opportunity to partake in game play as well as watching, with a number of American pool tables free to use weekdays from 12pm until 5pm.

Walk from...

THE ROYAL HOTEL Conveniently located on the market square right at the heart of the ancient old town of Kirkby Lonsdale, the Royal Hotel offers a superb location to explore the best of town and country.

Despite sitting just outside the Lake District National Park, Kirkby Lonsdale’s elegant stone buildings, higgledy-piggledy streets and profusion of independent shops, cafés and pubs lend it a timeless appeal that some of Cumbria’s more famous tourist destinations have lost.

And from August 2016, the newly enlarged Yorkshire Dales National Park will extend right to the edge of town.

John Ruskin’s famous view up the Lune Valley towards the Howgill Fells – immortalised in watercolours by JMW Turner – is just a five-minute walk from the hotel’s front door and from here a number of riverside walks wind their way across the fields beside the river.

The southern slope of the Lune Valley is topped with imposing hills: Casterton Fell, Leck Fell, Brownthwaite Pike, Calf Top and mighty Gragareth – the highest summit in Lancashire. Just a few miles further up the valley, the undiscovered range of the Howgills begs exploration, while to the east, where Ingleborough glowers on the skyline, the iconic Yorkshire Three Peaks beckon. A short drive to the west lie the hidden gems of the Arnside and Silverdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – an often overlooked enclave on the Lancashire-Cumbria border offering superb low level walks and breathtaking views of the Lakeland Fells rising above the Kent estuary. And finally, in the unlikely event that you exhaust all the walking options in the immediate vicinity, the lakes and mountains of the Lake District National Park are just a half-hour drive away.

NORTHSIDESHOPPING WORDS: Fiona Barber

Shoppers’ paradise Here’s Northside’s guide to the best in the region’s retail therapy.

LEEDS

THE ARCADES Leeds is proud to house the 19th century Grand Arcade – one of the oldest shopping arcades in Leeds – as well as Thornton’s Arcade and Queen’s Arcade, where you’ll find a selection of shops and boutiques.

Each has its own unique identity and atmosphere, so they bring real character to the city and provide a true haven for anyone who wants to shop somewhere different.

BRIGGATE As one of Leeds’ main retail streets, Briggate is full to the brim with clothes stores, cafes and eateries. It was founded way back in 1207 and has since developed into the bustling area that we know today.

The high-street chains dominate, but there is also great diversity here, ensuring there’s something to suit every shopper’s budget.

THE HEADROW An impressive and largely pedestrianised street spanning half a mile, The Headrow is one of Leeds’ primary shopping streets, holding many of the city’s cultural attractions. With St John’s Shopping Centre and The Core in the vicinity, it has a great number of big-name brands.

KIRKGATE MARKET One of the largest indoor markets in Europe, Kirkgate is a haggler’s paradise for everything from fresh food and drink, to fashion and jewellery, flowers and haberdashery. Set in impressive Edwardian buildings, the market has a lively programme of events and hosts regular speciality markets. Still the city’s shopping mecca, the market now also plays host to Jamie’s Ministry of Food continuing the market’s tradition of bringing great quality food and drink to the people of Leeds.

Leeds Picture: Welcome to Yorkshire

THE LIGHT The Light combines independent shops and high street retailers with a wide selection of places to eat and drink. There are stylish bars and cafes, a multi-screen cinema, a deluxe four-star hotel and a premier health and fitness club all under one roof.

TRINITY LEEDS Leeds biggest and best shopping centre with 120 shops, bars, restaurants and cinema sat in the very heart of the city. A true urban retail and leisure experience.

The centre is a redevelopment of the former Trinity and Burton Arcades and the Leeds Shopping Plaza, which now features all of your high street favourites.

VICTORIA GATE Victoria Gate is an exciting addition to the vibrant shopping scene in Leeds. The first phase will capture the heritage of the Victoria Quarter and offer a range of high quality and designer brands. The detailed designs for phase one include three main buildings including a multi-storey car park for up to 800 cars.

Alongside regenerating the physical space, the first phase will also deliver up to 1,000 retail and hospitality jobs and 1,000 construction employment opportunities.

YORK

COPPERGATE The shopping centre within York’s ancient city walls. Coppergate Shopping Centre is home to the famous Jorvik Viking Centre, but also offers a wealth of high street shops, cafés, galleries and museums.

GILLYGATE Named after the now demolished medieval church of St Giles, Gillygate is an ancient, historic York street which is home to a variety of shops and businesses. Situated just outside the city walls, there are lots of interesting places to eat and drink.

MICKLEGATE With an old English name that translates to ‘Great Street’, Micklegate is one of the finest Georgian streets in York. Start at the magnificent Micklegate Bar and take in the many shops and pubs.

SHAMBLES MARKET (FORMERLY NEWGATE MARKET) The historic Newgate Market was re-named Shambles Market as part of its £1.6million refurbishment last year. The market square is Europe’s largest single pedestrianised area and has stalls of fresh food, clothes and gifts as well as arts and crafts.

THE SHAMBLES The Shambles is one of York's oldest medieval streets. It has beautiful architecture of overhanging timber-framed buildings – some dating back as far as the 14th century. Explore the many shops, eateries and tourist attractions housed within its crooked timber buildings. www.regionalmagazine.co.uk

STONEGATE One of the most attractive streets in York, for centuries Stonegate has been a busy thoroughfare Today the beautiful buildings that line the street host many boutique shops. Home to the world famous Mulberry Hall, which exhibits and sells a range of fine china, crystal, cutlery and cookware, Stonegate is one of York’s top retail streets.

SWINEGATE In the medieval period Swinegate was a pig market and you will see lots of references to pigs, particularly in Swinegate Court. But it has been transformed over the years and now boasts fashion boutiques, art, designer living and home furnishing shops as well as many restaurants and café bars.

CLIFTON MOOR As the UK’s largest retail park, all your fashion, home, pet and food needs are covered at Clifton Moor. Just three miles from the centre of York, the centre boasts over 30 stores and 3,000 free parking spaces, and there is also a cinema, bowling alley and a number of restaurants.

MONKS CROSS On the outskirts of York, the centre has become a main retail destination and offers a wealth of high street favourites. Monks Cross boasts 31 of the top UK shops, along with late night shopping and free parking.

MACARTHUR GLEN DESIGNER OUTLET The York Designer Outlet, located just a short drive from York city centre, is a large outlet village offering designer labels at discount prices. With big discounts on over 120 brands, it allows you to get your retail therapy fix without breaking the bank.

THE MONTPELLIER QUARTER Take a walk around The Montpellier Quarter (left) to experience the truly cosmopolitan atmosphere of Harrogate. This area is home to 80 elite shops, pavement cafés, bars and award-winning restaurants as well as the ‘Antiques and Art Centre of the North’, with many antique shops and art galleries.

THE VICTORIA SHOPPING CENTRE At The Victoria Shopping Centre, you’ll find everything you need in one place. There is a huge selection of stores offering everything from fashion and children’s toys to electronics and specialist shops.

And with space for 800 cars and a few dining outlets, shopping is made even more convenient.

CHELTENHAM PARADE Leading from the Harrogate Conference Centre, Cheltenham Parade is one of the town’s most important culinary streets.

Here you’ll find a wide range of cuisine as well as a flurry of independent boutiques and designer shops.

BEST OF THE REST For an up-and-coming fashionable boutique district, head to the High Harrogate area around Mowbray Square and Westmoreland Street. Or visit other shopping destinations such as Ripon Road, Hydro Retail Park, Cold Bath Road and West Park.

PROMOTIONROYAL ARMOURIES INTERNATIONAL

Flexible space

Exhibitions are taking centre stage at the Royal Armouries and NEW DOCK Hall in the coming months. xhibitions and conferences are growing at Royal Armouries International plc (RAI) as event organisers make use of the square space between the Royal Armouries and NEW DOCK Hall to expand their exhibitions by adding up to 24 exhibitors.

The PLASA Focus show took full advantage of the space and launched The Pavillion for their 2016 event. More than 2,000 professionals from the entertainment industry in the North of England attended the show with traders from audio, lighting, broadcast and stage technologies showcasing their newest products.

May was a busy month for RAI, with 5,000 delegates walking through the doors for Buy Yorkshire, one of the biggest business conference and exhibitions in the North of England.

Organised by business networking group The Yorkshire Mafia, the event has become somewhat of a showpiece on the North of England’s business events calendar.

The event took over two exhibition halls, a total of 185 modular exhibition stands which organisers encouraged businesses to adapt their space to really showcase their business. More than 20 speakers shared their ideas during the

E

conference, including Terry Waite and Nigel Farage who took part as a panellist on the Billion Pound Panel.

New Dock Hall hosted the Leeds rally for the Vote Leave campaign, at which Boris Johnson spoke in front of 500 people.

Trading business people and politicians for Game of Thrones stars, the New Dock Hall also hosted the first ever Smashcon. An action-packed TV, film and comic convention, Smashcon’s theme was The Battle for the Iron Throne and featured guest appearances from top TV and film stars, including comedian and Red Dwarf icon Norman Lovett.

This month the third annual Leeds International Tattoo Exposition will see more than 120 top tattoo artists from around the world showcasing their talents at New Dock Hall on 4 and 5 June. Artists will battle it out in competitions on Saturday and Sunday evenings whilst boutique traders and exciting entertainment will top off the weekend.

The Leeds Waterfront Festival will take over Leeds dock on 25 and 26 June for its ninth festival. Bursting with arts, music, boat races and fun for all the family, those who want to get involved with the festival can join a ‘Splash Mob’,

learn a routine before the festival and perform it on the day.

Budding pilots will descend on the Royal Armouries Hall on 9 July for Pilot Careers Live. Representatives from airlines, approved training organisations and universities will be providing information on training, degrees and careers for aspiring pilots.

Looking forward to autumn, My Little Pony fans will be spreading the show’s message of love and friendship on 22 and 23 October when PonyCon comes to Leeds. As well as fundraising for their chosen charity, pony fans old and young will be able to enjoy a pony themed day out with talks, exhibitions and quizzes.

In November, RAI will host Thought Bubble festival, a celebration of sequential art between 5 and 6 November. The event celebrates everything from superhero comics to independent small press comics and aims to cater to both long time comic fans and those who have never read a comic before.

If you’re interested in hosting your own event or exhibition at Royal Armouries Museum or New Dock Hall, don’t hesitate to contact the RAI events team 0113 220 1990 or info@raievents.co.uk. You can also visit www.rai-events.co.uk for further details.

NORTHSIDELIVING

On the up

What does the future hold for the property market?

Phoebe Seymour sought expert advice.

s 2016 gets into full swing, homeowners and estate agents can relax, safe in the knowledge that the property market continues to remain buoyant.

A shortage of properties towards the end of 2015 and well into 2016 means that demand is high and vendors remain in a position of power.

First-time buyers are also continuing to benefit with the government-backed Help to Buy scheme and the Help to Buy ISA securing their places on the property ladder.

Richard Waring, director of Thomlinsons auctioneers, surveyors and estate agents in Wetherby, explains how the current climate has created a much healthier market.

“Currently, mortgage rates remain competitive and that, coupled with Help to Buy, has assisted in helping people

A

get on and move up the housing ladder. In addition, higher loan value deals on 95 per cent mortgages are available and there has been an improvement in mortgages for the older generation, too. First-time buyers still need a deposit for their mortgage, but should shop around for the best deal.”

Rising house prices mean that many people – particularly first-time buyers – are finding it hard to save up more than a five per cent deposit. But you needn’t let this put you off buying your dream home.

Whilst the lowest

mortgage interest rates may be reserved for borrowers with big deposits of around 40 per cent or more, there are still plenty of competitive deals for buyers with just five per cent to put down.

Demand for properties in northern England has gone from strength to strength and, in particular, Yorkshire’s ‘golden triangle’ is attracting more buyers than ever before.

“Yorkshire, with its major towns of Leeds, York and Harrogate, has Richard Waring, director of Thomlinsons auctioneers, surveyors and estate agents in Wetherby

www.regionalmagazine.co.uk

074 - 075 NSide June16_Layout 1 25/05/2016 11:56 Page 2

www.regionalmagazine.co.uk

been voted in the national press as the ‘trendiest and happiest place to live,’” says Richard. “Leeds continues to expand as a major legal centre, keeping house prices very buoyant.”

The recent introduction of increased Stamp Duty rates for buy-to-let properties and second homes resulted in a rush to complete purchases before 1 April 2016 and, consequently, the market for these properties has tightened and prices have fallen slightly.

The political climate may also play a part in the future of the UK housing market, as Richard explains.

“Currently there is some uncertainty regarding our vote to stay or leave the EU. There is a lot of speculation from both sides of the argument as to the expected effect on property sale prices and this seems to have slowed the market down slightly over the past month or so. National house builders have also seen a slow down in enquiries over the previous month, making the markets more stable for buyers and sellers.”

While, it is difficult to predict the effect this will have on the future of the UK property market, it’s generally a positive message from Richard: “National house builders are active with new sites and there are a lot more new build properties becoming available, giving buyers a good choice. We anticipate that the housing market will remain active and that prices should be stable with the potential for future growth.”

WHAT YOU PAY AND WHAT YOU GET:

UP TO £100,000 Coming in bang on budget is a brand new one-bedroom apartment at Victoria House in Leeds. Located in the city centre, this stylish flat is perfect for young professionals with on-site facilities including private gardens, ping pong tables and a basketball court.

Away from the city, a ground floor one-bedroom apartment in Braithgayte includes a double bedroom, separate kitchen and a spacious driveway all for £95,000.

UP TO £250,000 Just off Kings Road in Harrogate, you’ll find a three-bedroom house brimming with possibilities. Priced at £215,000, this terraced house has recently been redecorated and recarpeted throughout and is conveniently located near the town centre.

Head over to Rothwell and you’ll find a three-bedroom detached house for £250,000. With a modern kitchen, big garden and detached garage, this would make a great investment for older and younger couples alike.

UP TO £500,000 If you have £257,950 to spare, you can upgrade to a townhouse at Devonshire Gardens in Harrogate. Not only do you benefit from more privacy and fewer neighbours, it comes with a fully fitted kitchen, an en-suite master bedroom and has excellent links for commuters.

On the other end of the price scale is

the gorgeous grade II listed Old Rectory in Lower Mickleton for £500,000. There are five generous Georgian bedrooms and many of the property’s 17th century features remain.

UP TO £750,000 A generous seven-bedroom house in Leeds for £575,000 is just the thing for a big family. The home benefits from new double-glazed windows, fitted wardrobes in every bedroom and a huge attic room with a great view of the city.

Right on the £750,000 budget is a traditional three-storey house in Harrogate. It’s the little details such as the fireplaces and exposed beams in the attic bedroom that give this home its charm. And with five-bedrooms, it is another great house for a growing family.

UP TO £1MILLION Viewing is highly advised for Braeside House in Holgate. At £795,000, this huge period house is surrounded by two to three acres of land and has plenty of areas to entertain guests including the drawing room and conservatory.

If you ever fancied running your own guesthouse, an opportunity in York is not to be missed. This £1million property includes a five-bedroom family home and a six-bedroom purpose-built guesthouse next door. This is an awardwinning and highly-rated business that would suit a budding entrepreneur.

OVER £1MILLION Nestled in the south side of Harrogate, with gorgeous views of Lower Wharfedale is The Old Barn, a stunning stone-built property with vaulted, light and airy rooms over three floors for £1,325,000. Also known as Walton Head Farm, this property has been sympathetically designed and renovated in the last decade, with five bedrooms and a spiral staircase through its centre.

Meanwhile, Ten Firs in Bardsey has many exciting leisure facilities including a bar area, a cinema room and a swimming pool. This five-bedroom home also has a separate self-contained annexe ideal for a dependant relative or home office suite and a first-floor patio area overlooking the stunning countryside. Near the market town of Wetherby, there are plenty of shops and top schools, making this a brilliantly located family home.

A new way of teaching is proving inspirational to children T

Above: A natural environment inspired by Reggio-Emilia provides unlimited play and learning possibilities.

Above right: All snacks are prepared (and even grown) by the children.

Bottom Right: In addition to weekly Bushcraft sessions, children love time spent in our excellent outdoor facilities, especially the new mud kitchen.

he early years at Moorfield have always been a time for exploration, curiosity and discovery. With the addition of new cutting-edge facilities providing a calm, safe and nurturing environment for children from 2-5 years old to play and learn, it has never been a more exciting time to visit.

Teaching is inspired by the ethos and principles of Reggio-Emilia and the environment has been planned around this, allowing a natural space that provokes and encourages learning.

Expertly supported by teachers and practitioners, children are seen as leaders of their own learning, using their interest to ignite projects and activities.

We are passionate about education and our pioneering way of teaching ensures that the progress and wellbeing of each child in our care is simply astonishing.

The only way to truly experience the wonder of a Moorfield education is to visit and explore for yourself. Free taster sessions are available on request.

Please contact us to book your place.

Harrogate Ladies’ College explodes in colour Pupils at Harrogate Ladies’ College have raised more than £700 for charity by holding a colour run on school grounds.

The event was organised by year 11 pupils from the school with proceeds from the event being donated to Behind Closed Doors, a Leeds-based charity who work with those affected by domestic abuse and violence.

Lucy Mulligan, a year 11 pupil, said: “Domestic violence isn’t really spoken about and so we wanted to do something to change that. The colour run seemed a great way of doing something positive, about something so negative.”

Making strides The Wheel Specialist in Leeds have recently invested in a stateof-the-art alloy wheel lathe, which means they are now able to fully re-machine diamond-cut alloy wheels as well as offer their super-durable powder coating service for standard alloy wheels. In addition, they have also invested in a new chemical to promote safer working, providing a kinder treatment for wheels during the “strip” stage. This is yet another stride made

by The Wheel Specialist in their commitment to promote ecofriendliness by using responsible and safe wheel-stripping methods.

NORTHSIDEMOTORING Mercedes C43

Mercedes C63 AMG Cabriolet

Power to the people Performance is the key ingredient in Jordan Cutforth’s round-up of the latest motoring news.

EMBER’S IN Probably the most bold yet stylish edition of the Evoque yet. This Ember edition brings a red and black theme to the Evoque’s already beautiful design making it an even more distinctive sight on the road.

As well as giving the exterior a more stand-out appearance – Santorini Black body with contrasting Firenze Red on the roof and front/rear tow eye covers, Satin Black 20-inch alloys, Narvik black grill, black exhaust finishers and darkened front and rear lights – the interior has had a makeover to with Ebony Black seats with contrasting pimento red stitching, black and red carpet mats and gloss black trim finishes.

There’s also a new InControl Touch Pro infotainment system with a 10.2inch tablet style screen.

Prices start from £47,200. Limited availability.

BRINGING IT DOWN A LEVEL If you feel the full-fat AMG experience might be just a tad too much then don’t fear, Mercedes has you covered.

Instead of the 4.0-litre bi-turbo V8 found in the C63, Mercedes is offering buyers a 367hp 3.0-litre V6 motor known as the C43. Available in Saloon, Coupe and Estate body styles, the C43 with officially hit 62mph from rest in 4.7 seconds (4.9 for the Estate) and go on to a top speed of 155mph.

All models come with a 4MATIC fourwheel drive system and a nine-speed automatic gearbox with paddle shifters.

Standard equipment includes Artico leather, Dinamica microfibre upholstery with red stitching, 18-inch black alloys, black door mirrors and silver brake callipers with ‘AMG’ lettering.

Prices start from £44,460.

JUST FOUR KICKS… Porsche has released an all-new version of their mid-engined coupe sports car. Unlike previous Cayman models, which came with riotous naturally-aspirated flat-six engines, this newest 718 iteration comes with two fewer cylinders – a flat-four ‘boxer’ unit.

Like the previous generation of Caymans, there are two engine sizes to choose from. The standard Cayman comes with a 2.0-litre unit developing 300hp whereas the Cayman S gets a 350hp 2.5-litre motor. The Cayman sprints to 62mph in 4.7 seconds and 4.2 seconds for the Cayman S. Top speeds are 170mph and 177mph respectfully.

Apart from the deeper burbling tone of the new exhaust, the new Cayman can be distinguished by new-look bumpers, as well as a change in interior design. Prices start from £39,878.

STYLE AND PRACTICALITY

The Honda Civic Sport is a car for those who want the comfort, practicality and running costs you’d expect from a traditional family car but yearn to have a much sportier appearance.

The Civic Sport already plays this role extremely well as it can achieve up to 76mpg on the combined cycle, yet it takes a lot of design cues from the bonkers-looking Type R hot hatchback. It’s the best of both worlds.

Along with the brilliant 1.6-litre diesel and the 1.8litre petrol engine that are available for the Sport, you can now have a 99hp 1.4-litre i-VTEC petrol unit. Available with a slick shifting six-speed manual gearbox this new entry-level Sport variant will start from £18,360.

Available to order now.

FEEL THE NOISE The latest generation of the Audi R8 is a welcome relief. Instead of following the rest of the industry by downsizing and turbo-charging their engines, the R8 has stuck to its guns and kept to a naturally-aspirated formula. Not only are these engines more responsive compared to their turbo-charged counterparts, but they’re considerably louder too.

As you would expect, the R8 Coupe is a fantastically aurally stimulating machine but this can only get better because now the Spyder version is coming along.

Available to order from later in the spring with deliveries at the end of the year, the new R8 Spyder will come with a 532hp 5.2-litre V10 powerhouse mated to an S-Tronic dual-clutch gearbox. As with the Coupe, there’s no manual available.

REACH FOR THE SKY Want your German super-coupe to be a little more… draughty?

Well we have good news for you; the C63 is going topless.

It’s the C63 AMG Cabriolet and it’s an electrically-operated multi-layered fabric job which can be lowered or raised at speeds of up to 31mph.

As it’ll be based on the C63 AMG coupe, it’ll come with the same 4.0-litre bi-turbo V8 motor producing either 469hp or 503hp in C63 S guise, and it’ll come with all the same equipment options. It literally is a C63 with the roof chopped off.

It’ll weigh more than the regular car, and certainly cost more too. But will you really care when there’s millions of miles of blue sky at your disposal.

The C63 Cabriolet will be launched in August.

NISSAN TURNS UP THE DRAMA ON THE GT-R The current-gen Nissan GT-R has been with us now since 2007, and every year since the Japanese company has tickled its underbelly and internal workings – an extra dollop of power here, a suspension tweak there. You get the idea.

Now Nissan has really gone to town with the MY17 edition and the changes are the most dramatic yet. In essence, the car’s looks have been changed giving it a more aggressive stance on the road with better aerodynamic properties. There’s a more luxurious new interior with fewer buttons and better sound deadening. The suspension has been changed to give better handling and improve ride quality. Power has also been raised to 562hp.

The order books opened this month with first deliveries this autumn.
