Whilst every effort is made incompiling American Car Magazine thepublishers cannot be held responsible for anyerrors, or any effects arising therefrom.n mid-May, I went along to theSociety of MotorManufacturers and TradersPress Day at Millbrook. This isan event where many motormanufacturers bring along a selectionof their models and members of thepress get to take them out and testdrive them, but only for 20 minutes orso, rather than booking them out ofthe press fleet for days at a time. It'slike a sushi bar, instead of a banquet.I went along to sample all theAmerican offerings. I almost starved.Jeep were there, with the Cherokeeand the Renegade that's doing so wellfor them at the moment, but we'vecovered those quiteextensively already.There was the newTesla, which you canread aboutelsewhere in thismagazine. Thatwas it. Ford'sMustang isn't hereyet, Chevrolet UKhas long sinceceased operation,and now Chrysler UK isgoing the same way. Yes,Chrysler has pulled out of theUK market, so once stocks of right-hand drive 300s, Voyagers andYpsilons are gone, they're outtahere. Chrysler Jeep franchiseswill continue to supplyparts, service andhonour warranties, butotherwise, that's it.Dodge, gone;Chevrolet, gone;Chrysler, gone; andBauer Millett'sclosure removedthe last official GMNorth Americadealership from theUK (though there is anew one in the pipelinefor Corvette, Camaro andCadillac Europe – stay tuned).It seems that, as companiesmerge and get taken over, and asthe range of vehicles specific to theNorth American market dwindles,selling “American” cars in our right-hand drive market just isn't worththeir while and they're happy to leavethe job to the independents.“Oncestocks ofright-hand drive300s, Voyagersand Ypsilons aregone, they'reoutta here”Perhaps the Mustang will prove mewrong. Goodbye, Chrysler, and thanksfor everything.So, having sat in traffic for threehours on the one-hour journey toMillbrook (why were the governmenttalking about raising motorway speedlimits to 80mph when most of itseems to be limited to 50mph at themoment?) I wasn't going to go homeafter 45 minutes. I tested a Caterham270S – the wide-bodied version fordrivers with wide bodies – andfrightened myself silly. It's basically amotorbike that you can't fall off. Idrove the Bentley Continental GT V8Sconvertible, which is absolutelyamazing. A smooth, silent V8express, with a leatherseat that massages yourback as you drive,then exhaust cut-outs that make itroar when you plantyour foot. Perfect. Idrove a MaseratiQuattroporte diesel,a really comfortablefour-door motorway-basher that you'd neverknow was a diesel. I drove aLexus RCF, a high-tech two-doorcoupe that is what a Skyline wants tobe when it grows up.I also had a go in some of theclassics that some companies hadbrought along. Jaguar's XJ12C coupewas lovely, and Suzuki had broughtalong one of those little eightiesSC100 'Whizz-kid' things which wasfun but had no brakes. Newspress hada theme of 'your first car', amongstwhich was a 1982 Allegro 1100, whichwas unfortunately as dreadful as itsreputation, even though I desperatelywanted it not to be. And my favouritecar of the day? A 1972 Toyota Crown, abig two-door pillarless coupe with alazy straight-six, auto box and asmuch American styling as Japancould steal. Whoever styled it hadclearly seen a 1970 AMC Ambassadorcoupe and thought “We can do that!” Iloved it, and the owner – an owner'sclub member along at Toyota UK'sbehest – was a wonderful bloke.Almost as nice as the chap fromJaguar's Heritage Centre who wastelling me about the 1970 Chevellehe's just bought...NOW AVAILABLE DIGITALLYEVERYTHING YOU ENJOY ABOUTAMERICAN CAR MAGAZINE ONYOUR SMART PHONE OR TABLETConnect with us on Facebook & Twittertwitter.com/AmericanCarMagafacebook.com/AmericanCarMagazineCOMPETITION RULESUNLESS SPECIFICALLYSTATED OTHERWISE:For all American Car Magazinecompetitions, enter via email atcompetitions@americancarmagazine.comor send postal entries to:American Car Magazine, The Outlook,6 Sansome Walk, Worcester, WR1 1LH.One entry per person.
