It’s been four long months for motor show junkies since the last major events in New York and Beijing switched off their bright lights and closed the doors.
It will soon be Paris's turn to host the world’s carmakers and their new models, concepts, glossy brochures and free show bags.
There’s now mere weeks left until the big event, and the hype has been building for the past few months.
Significant debuts set for the 2014 Paris Motor Show include the Volvo XC90, Mazda MX-5, Volkswagen Passat and Kia Sorento; and that’s from the list that we know about.

The Renault Sport race car should be there too in the flesh.
Sorry, the Alpine silhouette car.
Why do those Audis even need camouflage. The lines are typically boring VW design ethos at its uncreative best:p
And they still sell loads of them, as many people like the boring design :p
My comment was aimed at "why bother camouflaging them" as there are no real surprises :-P
XE JAGUAR, car of the show.....:)
I know what to watch for... The babes hanging off the cars. :)
