The names of the first...
The names of the first 20 people to buy a Jaguar in China will be all over our TV screens later this month. But they will be travelling so fast, they won"t be readable. That"s because they are being printed on the side of the firm"s Formula One car when it takes part in the inaugural China Grand Prix in Shanghai on 26 September.
It looks as if Skoda...
It looks as if Skoda is about to go exploring again. This is the Fabia Scout – a rugged version of the new Estate. As with the Octavia and Roomster Scout variants, it has protective body mouldings and a raised ride height. To that it adds a handy, fold-out rear ledge and a system of luggage straps in the boot. With more room than a Volvo V50 and chunky looks, it should prove popular when it goes on sale next year, priced from around ÷£12,000. A facelifted Octavia will also arrive in 2008.
