Foreplay

We warm-up this month with 4 diabolical cars, right at the edge of reason. The first one on the list and the newest of them all is an orange KTM X-Bow, car which enters a segment where Caterham Seven Superlight R500 only used to fight the likes of Ariel Atom. Later on, a more conventional Audi TTS tries to cool down things, but the newest addition to the Superbike Championship, the BMW S 1000 R, stirs everything back to normal.

Playdrive

With summer comes more dust and an increased chance to feel bad from insolation, so it's the perfect time by our standards to go out and buy a convertible. We had our hands on the second generation Mercedes SLK, the new Audi TTS, the Alfa Spider, the Nissan 350Z and the BMW 125i Cabrio. You read on and decide for yourselves.

Cover Story

The long awaited match between the dwarfs has begun. The new Fiat 500 fights the old Mini once again. Only this time, it will all be fair play, because it takes place on a tennis court. Read on and see who's got the ball this time.

Inside

We've got the new X6 ripping through the hearts of viewers just like a Gay Parade through the hearts of church men, we've got a go-kart experiment getting up our most inner thoughts about sex, and the future of the Land Rover G4 Challenge all revealed just before a story on the most fabulous Lotus Elise ever: the Rinspeed sQuba.

People

This month we resisted the temptation to analyze Max Moseley and decided Chris Bangle is a story just as good. It took us a while, but we decided that the best way to understand the world is to watch cartoons. And especially those cartoons that feature an undecided guy with a small devil on one shoulder and an angel on the other shoulder. Which side of his multiple personality did Chris Bangle listen to?
