The month of September is one of the busiest of the year when it comes to the car industry. License plate changes occur during this month and for many many years has been a hot topic in the automotive trade. The first six months of this year have been the best in the country since 2005 when it comes to new car registrations. With that in mind though, this year car dealers have been urged to maintain their focus on used vehicles and selling of them for the month of September. With the Volkswagen Golf topping the charts for the first six months of this year, focus will certainly be maintained on European car markets.

In some exciting news today coming out of the motorbike industry and to be more specific the Japanese firm known as Suzuki, we are pleased to report on the recent launch of a brand new bike variant from the mass manufacturer which comes in the shape of a newly designed GSXR 600 model. This new addition to the GSXR family comes as the all new Tyco Race replica which comes with a brand new paint scheme and plenty of additional equipment also. The GSXR range is one of the biggest sellers from the company has been for many years now. The GSXR 600 model was first introduced to the world back in 1992.

Some exciting news today if you're interested in convertible vehicles. The German brand BMW have just launched their brand new contribution to the car industry and it comes in the form of the 435i M Sport. This all new convertible machine has officially gone on sale here in the UK and across other various countries world wide too. For such a sporty vehicle with the power that it packs, it has come as a surprise to us that this model has been criticised a little by testers who say it doesn't give that great feeling that you would expect. With this little snag in mind could it put you off buying one of these convertibles or could it just be a matter of preference ?.

This motorbike first went into production back in 2006 and the final model in the line up was produced in 2008.

In continuation of a news story we reported on yesterday fresh out of the motorbike world regarding Japanese manufacturer Kawasaki. To celebrate thirty years in the motorbike industry, a special thirty year anniversary model of the ZX 10R was officially launched. Today though we are pleased to report that the same has been done for the brands big selling ZX 6R 636 bike also. A lot of the features of the bike stay the same as the original model which was first introduced back in 1995. The main noticeable change though is indeed the paint scheme for this particular addition. It benefits from the lime Green and Crystal White scheme that the ZX10R does and we think this could very well be the perfect way to celebrate thirty years of success.

This week at Gap insurance 123 we are checking out some of the highest rated motorbikes available around the world from the Motorcycle news and their owners. The high rating bike for today comes to you courtesy of the minds over at Yamaha who are well known for their R1 and R6 models and the bike in question is the XJ6. The XJ6 was first produced in 2009 and is still in production to this day. It has proven to be a key performer both on the road and in terms of success for the Japanese company. The bike shares the same sort of look to some Street fighter models. What we mean by this is that the fairing is left to a minimal state. From the front end it looks similar to the speed triple from British manufacturer Triumph but does it perform just as well ?.
