Production began in earnest at the Kosai plant in October 1991, although aspirations for the car never extended beyond the domestic market. Aware of the favourable reception the car was receiving in its homeland, Suzuki GB soon spotted the potential for the Cappuccino to act as a brand builder for the marque, and entered into discussions to bring the car to these shores.Being such a specialist car, the type approval process wasn't straightforward, yet the Cappuccino officially went on sale to an initially bemused British public in October 1993, priced at £11,995. Tougher emissions regulations eventually made the import of the Cappuccino unfeasible, but the car carried on for sale in Japan in Type2 guise until late 1997, and personally imported examples continue to hit UK docks.

With the new Gallardo LP560-4, Lamborghini once again sets a higher standard for super sports cars. The Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 is the successor of the most successful Lamborghini model of all time.

Pickup trucks have always possessed a sense of ballsy gravitas about them, the steed of choice of the modern-day Marlboro man if he ditched his horse. For some, it’s about that active lifestyle image that a real manly pickup truck suggests. In many ways, Toyota’s Hilux pickup would do the Marlboro man proud. Bigger than a Mitsubishi Strada. Suddenly, leviathans like Nissan Patrols and Ford Expeditions seem smaller.
