Gallery of Unique Hummers

A gallery of cool and unique Hummer cars from around the world. Probably the coolest and craziest hummer modification we have seen is this horse drawn Hummer!

Mr Jeremy, 33, spent £10,000 buying the black Hummer H2 and with the help from a team of mechanics, dismantled the vehicle and made it into an engine-less carriage.

"I came up with the idea during the global economic melt-down," he said.

"I thought these hummers are the pinnacle of consumerism and a powerful status symbol, so what will happen when they are no longer sustainable?"

The hefty 1,800lb cart made a public debut in New York Central Park, pulled by2 white horses aptly named Diesel and Duke which you can see a video of here:

Here are some more impressive modified Hummers...

 

E-Bugster - VW Concept Car Pics and Video

Showcasing pictures and a video one of the coolest concept cars we've seen from VW called the E-Bugster which was revealed at the 2012 Detroit motor show.

 

Here's a video of the Volkswagen E-Buster Concept that was officially revealed at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show.

So what do we think of Volkswagen E-Bugster? 
Well, it's a completely new concept that's based on the latest version of VW's iconic Beetle. And it's electric. So far so good! For an electric car it's pretty nippy with an electric motor giving 114 horsepower (85 kW) and 199 pound-feet of torque.

Range is decent too which is detailed at about 100 miles courtesy of a 695-pound lithium ion battery pack that sites both under the rear seats and trunk floor.  A charging port is located under the VW logo at the car's nose, and, depending on the charger being used, an 80% charge can happen in just 30 minutes.

But the VW E-Bugster's coolest styling element we think is its chopped roof. Also we love the 20-inch alloy wheels (see picture below) which remind us a bit of the Fuchs wheels seen on many retro Beetles all around the country.

Cool Replica Car Trailers

Showcasing cool and slightly crazy car trailers made by ACT which look like small replicas of real cars. Priced at $3,695, each trailer is hand crafted and comes equipped with 12 inch wheels, sleek aerodynamic body, carpet, and working LED lights.

Our Verdict
Although these car trailers are very cool is design, they're way too small to be of any use and tow behind a car. Much more suited behind the motorbikes we'd say.

Aston Martin loves women. Women love Aston Martin. We love both!

Showcasing a cool sexy advert from Aston Martin although it doesn't take much. This 87 second-long featurette illustrates that women don't need a mini skirt to be featured in an exotic luxury car commercial, and that you don't have to be a guy to appreciate automotive beauty.

And while the DBS rolling through the majestic twisties is a real looker, it's the sound bites that really get us going. Aston Martin may love women, and women may love Aston right back, but men are rather fond of 'em, too.
