  Barons Jaguar Heritage Auction, Sandown Park, 19th April 9 Apr 2011 (News)
  Another of the fixed head coupés on offer has spent the past 21 years in dehumidified storage. Finished in British Racing Green, the automatic V12 is reported to have covered a little over 36,000 miles from new. In 1990 it was put into storage and since then it has been run regularly but over low mileages. It is only coming out of storage for the sale.

  Notable ‘big cat’ entries for next week’s sale include a   magnificent 1958 Jaguar XK150 Roadster which was the subject of a   major restoration by Grace Jaguar and subsequently upgraded by   Vicarage (£75,000-£90,000) and a  truly superb 1952 XK120 Roadster,   which has covered just 250 miles since the completion of a 3 year, nut   and bolt restoration, using all new panels from Guy Broad (£55,000-  £65,000). Other Jaguars on offer include a totally original 1968 MkII   3.4/340 Saloon with automatic transmission and just 20,800 miles on   the clock (£19,500-£25,000).   One rarity is the 4.7-litre 1972 Maserati Mexico which has been on   display in the Bentley Motor Museum in East Sussex for the past two   decades (£30,000-£40,000).

  Four New Eco KIAs at Paris Show 26 Sep 2008 (News)
  One of the first ‘eco-friendly' technologies to transfer from concept to reality will be Kia's new ISG (Idle Stop&Go) system which makes its world premiere at Paris and will be available on Kia cee'd petrol models from early 2009. The innovative ISG system automatically switches the engine off - when the car is stopped in heavy traffic - and on again when traffic moves, cutting fuel consumption and emissions by up to 15 per cent in typical city driving conditions.

  Used Van Buying Guide: Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2006-2013 25 Nov 2019 (News)
  . Power came initially from a range of 2.1-litre four-cylinder and 3.0-litre V6 diesels with a choice of manual or automatic gearboxes - the auto being relatively rare. Engine start/stop, dubbed Eco-Start, was added in 2008 as an option, while 2009 saw the entire engine range overhauled with 95, 130 and 165PS versions of the four-cylinder engine, and a single 190PS V6 3.0-litre option.

  Unimog: Behind The Wheel 13 May 2013 (News)
  While it may be a hardcore working vehicle, the Unimog is full of clever stuff like the VarioPilot steering column that can be transferred from left to right hand drive – complete with instruments and pedals – by sliding it across in just a few seconds. There are even tyres than deflate automatically, for instance if you're going on sand, and can then be reinflated again, all from within the cabin. It's surprising similar things haven't made their way onto everyday cars yet. The Unimog we drove – in its delightful shade of green – is a U400 short wheelbase and with all its options, including the VarioPilot steering, central tyre inflation and the 24-inch Michelin field tyres, comes in at £168,000.
