  Grey is the UK's favourite car colour 18 Jan 2019 (News)
  It's unusual that grey is number one as, in most cases, it's an optional extra on new cars. It was a favourite amongst buyers of Britain's best-selling car, the Ford Fiesta, last year - despite costing an extra £650, making it one of the most expensive colours available. On Britain's second best-selling car, the Volkswagen Golf, grey is available as a no-cost option - which might explain its popularity - but it's a £565 extra on the third most popular car, the Vauxhall Corsa.

  A Grand Monday: Volvo 440 29 Jan 2018 (News)
  Launched in 1988 to replace the 340 (though the two were sold side-by-side for the first three years so as not to overly shock Volvo's more conservative clientelle), the 440 nevertheless became a fixture of suburbia. A car that did everything a Vauxhall Astra or Ford Escort did, but in a slightly more sturdy manner.  In 1993, the 440 was given a mid-life facelift. Its original angular looks had never been universally praised, and the new-look model was much rounder at its edges, with a softer grille, larger body-coloured bumpers and revised head and taillights, though the interior remained functionally chunky.
