Moscow Motor Show in pictures

Ok, so the DS5 might not be new, but Citroen managed to give it a bit of local flavour with this uniquely styled show stand. Unlike the show girls, these two bruisers, dressed in local garb, didn't do much in the way of smiling.

As well as a new V6 petrol engine, Jaguar has added four-wheel drive to its XF and XJ line-ups for cars sold in places like Russia, China and the US. Coping with a Russian winter just got a little easier for Moscow's Jag drivers… 

Lada used its home show to debut this interesting X Ray concept. There's no plans to build it, but it's a Nissan Juke rival in terms of size, and its sleek looks are set to influence future generations of Lada cars

Vauxhall no longer sells the Astra saloon in Britain, but it's big news on the Continent where it will compete with the likes of the Skoda Rapid and SEAT Toledo for sales. The four-door will share its engines with the hatch, and Opel c

Glamour is very much the order of the day at the Moscow show. Every stand bar none boasted an array of leggy waif thin models - some wearing outfits that left little to the imagination. Few shows are so explicit.

Not for the faint-hearted, this eight-wheel monster uses Iveco and Hyundai engines ranging from 130bhp to 240bhp, and measures more than six metres long. Claimed fuel economy is 14mpg. Is this the ultimate in all-terrain vehicles?

Forget rusty old Ladas, Russia's nouveau riche want something more luxurious and spacious to drive - or be driven round - in. Little wonder the facelifted BMW 7 Series 740Li was proving so popular with the local journalists. In fact th

What do you get if you cross a Nissan Juke with a famous nightclub? Well... this. The Juke Ministry of Sound edition features white-painted wheels, an 8gb iPod touch and some headphones branded with the Juke logo.

Okay, so we have not only seen this car before but we've even driven it. However, everyone loves a picture of a Veyron don't they, especially when its the fastest convertible in the world? However, you need to be an oligarch to afford

Based on the conventionally powered Kalina, this is Lada's first electric car. It can travel up to 93 miles on a single charge and can hit a top speed of 80mph. Lada plans to use them as taxis across Russia.

The Russians love to tune their supercars, but they needn't bother with the Brabus B63 - it comes with two turbos to boost power from the 6.2-litre V8 to 690bhp. The car was actually first shown in Geneva last year. But somehow it seem

Other than the abundance of luxury cars and pretty girls, there were few outward clues we were in Russia. But Mercedes got into the swing of things with these special Cyrillic plates for its models.

Not content with having the most scantily clad ladies at the show, Mitsubishi attracted even more attention to its stand with this ludicrous mirror-effect i-MiEV.

German tuner Mansory certainly knows its market. Among the typically garish exhibits on its stand was this example of toughened glass. Designed specifically for the Toyota Land Cruiser and Lexus models, Mansory believes it will be a hi

The big US SUV was making its European debut at Moscow. The model is specifically targeted at developing nations, and is likely to do well in Russia, where Chevrolet is one of the top-selling brands.

Russia is an important market for luxury car makers - and Lexus recognised this by showing its new LS600h F Sport. It follows the RX and GS with a more prominent grille.

No, not the return of the famous hatch, but another saloon that is not destined to go on sale in Britain. It's built in Russia and has an enhanced chassis, a strengthened upper body structure and thicker steel to cope with extreme weat

Few exhibits, if any, at Moscow were so blatantly targeted at the super-rich as this pimped-up Garia golf cart from Mansory. Featuring leather seats and a teak floor, it costs an eye-watering £32,000! "For rich people" was the understa

The Taiwanese company was in Moscow as it looks to expand its operations and enter the Russian market. It is jumping on the electric bandwagon with this battery-powered SUV.

Still the most important Russian manufacturer, Lada used the Moscow show to unveil a facelifted Kalina. The supermini is a big seller for the brand and is used as the 'reasonably priced car' on TopGear Russia.

It wouldn't have been the Moscow Motor Show without this famous old Lada design of the past. Previously known as the Niva, the tough old-roader soldiers on in the Russian brand's line-up as the 4x4.

The Infiniti stand was populated by some mammoth 4x4s and this was one of them. The seven-seat SUV debuted in the USA earlier this year, and now it has arrived in Europe. That kink in the C-pillar is hard to love, though.

Equus is Hyundai's luxury flagship - and it was out to appeal to oligarchs with this special version of its limousine. It's called the Security, and has been developed with Russian company Armortech, which aims to protect VIPs from ter

Skoda's Sochi edition Yeti is named after the Russian city that'll host the 2014 Winter Olympic games. Candy white paint, a set of dark alloys and plenty of Winter Olympics badges make the top-spec Skoda stand out.
