Carbon fibre explained

Hot cars often sprout bits of carbon fibre on their bonnets, wings and dashboards, but what is this enchanting material? How is it made? And is it all it's cracked up to be?

Asus Lamborghini VX5

Asus' Lamborghini VX5 is a luxury laptop, with a luxury price to match — thankfully justified by the quality of the laptop and package. If you've got a wad of cash burning in your pocket, and don't mind a little luxury, the VX5 might be for you.

Reviews

  • Brother MFC-990CW

    The Brother MFC-990CW is a speedy, fully capable all-in-one device that earns our recommendation for an individual or a family that will make use of its touchscreen and telephone/answering machine.

  • Lexus IS250 Sports Luxury (2009)

    What the IS250 lacks in badge snobbery, it makes up for in good looks, rock-solid quality, neat handling and serenity enough to becalm a frazzled monk. While stuffed with tech, it isn't quite as up-to-date as we'd have liked.

  • Asus G71

    The G71 is an excellent system. It's expensive, and there's a few missteps Asus has made with hardware configuration, bling and the inclusion of a 32-bit version of Windows, but by and large with this system you get what you pay for — assuming your pockets are deep enough.

  • Honda Jazz VTi-S (2008)

    Way more rational than its namesake musical style, the Jazz impresses with its abundance of space, cheery outlook on life and clever engineering.

  • Mercedes-Benz E280 CDI Sport Edition

    It may be showing its age in parts but this luxury sedan is so capable of conquering cities and subduing the highways with its supple yet firm ride that we're willing to forgive it its many foibles.

  • Panasonic Viera TX-37LZ800M

    This flagship 2008 Panasonic Viera LCD TV delivers brilliant colours and soulful sounds, but is held back by a less than ideal PC resolution support and a broken anti-judder 24p function.

  • ASUS Lamborghini VX3

    The ASUS Lamborghini VX3 is the laptop recast as a status symbol. It looks and feels like a luxury item; we just wish it had a bit more power under the hood.

  • Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

    Gran Turismo 5 Prologue may be only a practice lap for the real thing, but it's a beautiful joyride while it lasts.
