The Daily Mirror reported on an exclusive story that is due to break a little later this week, namely that government plans for so-called ‘green towns’ will create through-fares for cars that will be running at 15 miles per hour.

Frankly, I’m shocked to discover that no one has yet added any coverage to CarArticles regarding this new Japanese beast, so I couldn’t take it any more. I just have to say something about this incredible, 473bhp, four-seat 3.8 litre V6 monster. Granted, I haven’t driven one yet (there are only about 3 in […]

This is the seventh pole of his F1 career and should provide an excellent start for the young […]

If you’re confused, let me allay that sensation of not quite knowing what I’m talking about. A couple claim to have taken a photograph of the (in)famous Jeremy Clarkson of Top Gear fame whilst he’s chatting away on his mobile. Adam Blake and Hayley Byford say that they saw Clarkson the phone as he travelled […]
