Unless you’ve been stranded on a desert island somewhere, chances are you’ve heard of Ken Blocks Hoonicorn by now.
We did write about the car when it was initially unveiled and we also posted about it when Gymkhana 7 was released, however if you are still yearning for more of this beastly creation then fellow motor journalist Chris Harris can help you out with that.

In this video Harris gives a run down of the ins and outs of this truely unique machine. This is a walk through of all of the build details of the 845bhp Ford Mustang Hoonicorn RTR, giving the most detailed look you can possibly get of the car, without having it to yourself for a few hours.
Described in the video as 25% DTM, 25% Transam and 50% hot wheels –  it’s when fantasy meets the ultimate car.

Audi has announced that a new three-cylinder petrol engine with CO2 emissions of under 100g/km, will join the A1 range, as part the car’s mid-life refresh. The upmarket supermini also benefits from styling revisions inside and out, equipment upgrades and efficiency gains across the range of engines.

Customers now have a choice of two petrol and one diesel engine, which Audi claims are not only cleaner and more efficient, but also more powerful than the outgoing units.

The A1 will be available to order from the end of November, with the first customer cars expected for delivery in the first quarter of 2015. However, it won’t initially be available with Audi’s frugal new 1.0-litre petrol unit, which arrives in the summer.

From launch buyers will have a choice of two 1.4-litre petrol units, one of which is equipped with cylinder-on-demand technology for low CO2 emissions of just 112g/km, despite developing 148bhp. The entry level unit develops 124bhp and emits 115g/km.

The 1.6-litre diesel is cleaner than ever before, with CO2 emissions in the latest version reduced from 99g/km to 92g/km in both three and five-door Sportback body styles. Fuel economy has increased from 74.3mpg to 80.7mpg.

Styling updates on the new model include a new flatter and wider grille, redesigned bumpers, a selection of fresh alloy wheel designs and a range of new exterior colours. Additionally, Audi drive select, which alters steering and throttle response at the flick of a switch, will now come as standard from the Sport model upwards.

The Audi S1 and S1 Sportback remain the performance flagship models of the new range. With a power output of 231bhp and Audi’s quattro all wheel drive system, these cars are quite the pocket rockets.

Prices for the refreshed A1 and A1 Sportback vary from £15,390 to £21,640, while the S1 and S1 Sportback are priced from £25,380 to £26,110.

Since Hoonigan Racing Division’s Ken Block debuted his Gymkhana SEVEN car (dubbed the Hoonicorn) for the first time publicly in the Ford booth at SEMA 2014, everyone has been patiently waiting for the latest instalment of the popular Gymkhana series to drop.

Well the wait is over and the video has finally been put online and we have a feeling this might just break the internet.
Entitled ‘GYMKHANA SEVEN: WILD IN THE STREETS OF LOS ANGELES’, it features Block man-handling the world’s first performance all-wheel drive 1965 Ford Mustang notchback- with 850 ponies powering all four wheels – around a closed street circuit as he drifts seamlessly around a series of obstacles.

The Ford V8 engine roars loudly as the motorsport legend passes police cars that are cordoning off the streets, at one point he even drifts around a cop car, as remnants of his custom made Pirelli tyres leave a lasting mark on the streets of LA.

A personal highlight from the video is when Ken drifts the menacing Mustang under a classic low-rider as it bounces on its hydraulic suspension.

Sit back, turn up your speakers, engage full screen and enjoy the madness that is GYMKHANA SEVEN.

OK, I’ll post the images already, so you can get your drool on. Be sure to stay tuned for more details on this!
