  Suzuki Jimny will remain on sale 'in very limited numbers' 24 Jan 2020 (News)
  It's also resulted in price increases for some vehicles in order to counter the penalties. Suzuki has recently introduced 48V mild-hybrid technology on its Swift Sport, Vitara and S-Cross models in order to improve its fleet emissions - but the Jimny, with its WLTP CO2 emissions of 178g/km (190g/km for the auto), skews the brand's average. While some media outlets are reporting that the Jimny will be removed from sale in the UK, Suzuki has said that the model will remain on sale in the UK in very limited numbers throughout 2020.

  Motorsport-inspired Porsches head to Donington 21 May 2019 (News)
  The collection will be curated by colour, not by car-type or time period, to showcase the connections between cars from different eras and styles. You may find a 991.2 GT2 RS road car in racing yellow alongside the yellow 911 S/T driven by Gerard Larrousse on the Tour de France to third place in 1970; next to the 1995 BPR World Championship winning 993 GT2. Paul Geudon, founder of Rennsport Collective, said, 'Born out of a lifelong passion for all things Porsche, the Rennsport Collective is a group like no other.

  A Grand Monday: Mercedes-Benz C240 Sport 5 Nov 2018 (News)
  The 'W202' generation of C-Class may have been a far more agile and arguably more handsome car, but it lacked the 'W201' 190's cockroach-like resilience to destruction. Indeed, a few years of salty winter roads were enough to see W202 C-Classes erupting into rust-riddled acne, which was enough to trigger a service action from Mercedes to replace rusted panels under warranty.

  A Grand Monday: Rover 200 Cabriolet SE 30 Apr 2018 (News)
  It’s finished in Pearlescent Amaranth, a metallic purple hue offered by Rover Group for just three years in the mid-1990s. It’s a bold and striking colour, and in our view it sets off the R8’s wedge-shaped lines beautifully. With a low mileage of just 64,000 and almost a year’s MoT, it’s as fit as the proverbial fiddle, and should we ever get a summer that lasts more than three days, it’s a perfect occasional-use classic.

  Our mystery engine sound revealed 1 Dec 2015 (News)
  An accompanying CD contains 30 tracks from different Porsche vehicles, from the rasp and thrum of the 356 to the raw aggression and yowl of a 917 4.9 coupe, right up to the Cayenne S and Panamera Turbo. It’s 252 colour pages are packed with 300 images, including never before seen photos, reproduced adverts and stylised graphics.

  Frankfurt Motor Show 2015: Audi previews new Q6 15 Sep 2015 (News)
  Power comes from a lithium-ion battery, positioned between the axles and below the passenger compartment, to lower the Q6's centre of gravity. There are no details about charging times or if the battery will be included in the list price of the car or leased as part of a monthly fee.  As the name implies, the Q6 will sit between the Q5 and Q7 in the Audi range and will combine an SUV body with a coupe-like cabin.
