Vauxhall/Opel Agila swings into view
Vauxhall/Opel is currently testing the next generation Agila. This prototype was caught testing in Germany with very heavy disguise.
The Wagon R and Agila share the same platform. Suzuki showed a concept car at the Paris motor show 2006 called the Splash which would hint at the next Wagon R.

Fiat 500 Caught Undisguised!
Well nearly undisguised. These pictures show a 2007 Fiat 500 with moderate disguise. This is the first time its ever been covered lightly with camoflague. Normal things that were covered were the rear window screen corners, roof, mirrors, lights, rear side windows, fuel cap, bumper and bonnet lines etc.
Most details can be seen like the front lights, door mirrors, indicator lights etc. After the prototype was caught in the Turin factory, it went for some testing in the mountains of Turin.
The 500 shares its underpinning with the 2008 Frod Ka. Interior pictures were also taken showing cream coulored steering wheel, gearbox and stick etc and cream coulored plastic interior air vents. Prices are expected to start around £6,500 and going upto £10,000 for the top of the range model.
Abarth:
One of the first photos of the 500 Abarth in Turin with heavy camoflague around the front end and rear side windows. Sporty front lower grille and alloy wheels indicate that this is a sports model.
Prices are yet to be rumoured or announced for this sports model but £12,000 sounds reasonable at the moment.
Upcoming models will include a Abarth, Cabrio, possibly a Abarth Cabrio and even a diesel.

BMW 1 Series Coupe Caught Cold!
Dubbed as the 2 Series this coupe will be an alternative to the regular BMW 1 Series coupe.
There are a few diffences between the two, this prototype will have horizontal lights witch could be placed on the bootlid. Another is the roofline and the way the rear end is shaped. The squared off rear end on this prototype should give more luggage space than the regular 1 Series Coupe and the roofline seems straighter than normal almost making it look like a sedan.

2008 Mercedes C-Class Estate Undisguised!
Seen here barely clothed in camouflage for the first time is the all-new Mercedes C-Class wagon.
The sedan version of the C-Class will be introduced next month at the Geneva Motor Show, but we don't expect the wagon to be shown for another six months or so, possibly at the Frankfurt auto show.
This test car was part of a larger group that we caught just days ago in the northern part of Sweden. Like the upcoming sedan, buyers will have the option between the four-cylinder C180 (156 hp, supercharged) or C200 (184 hp, supercharged), and the six-cylinder C230 (204 hp), C280 (231 hp), or C350 (272 hp). Diesel enthusiasts in some markets will have the choice between the C200 CDI (136 hp), C220 CDI (170 hp), or C320 (V-6, 224 hp).
