A motor vehicle comprises a vehicle body, an engine compartment housing an engine, a bonnet movably coupled to the body and arranged to provide a closure member for the engine compartment, the bonnet being movable between open and closed conditions to allow access to the engine compartment, and an engine air intake duct having an orifice through which Intake air may be drawn into the engine. The vehicle is provided with first and second air flaw paths whereby air may be supplied to the air intake duct. The first flow path comprises an air inlet aperture disposed at a front portion of the vehicle for receiving ram air and an air outlet aperture aft of the air inlet aperture, the air outlet aperture being provided in fluid communication with the air intake duct orifice. The second flow path is provided by a gap between a side edge of the bonnet and the body of the vehicle, whereby ambient air may be drawn through the gap to the air intake duct.
