This is the best idea...

This is the best idea yet of how a performance version of Mazda’s new 6 will look. The firm revealed the GT-M at the Tokyo Motor Show, and its shape hints at the next 6 MPS’s styling.



We learned of the newcomer...

We learned of the newcomer during an exclusive interview with VW boss Bernd Pischetsrieder. The car, set to go on sale in early 2006, has been created purely for keen drivers. He told us: "There are plans for variations of the Golf model, maybe with up to 230bhp and a lighter weight. Ostensibly, however, there will only be one GTI - it"s a car in its own right, and not a trim level."

Motorists in America...

Motorists in America can now refuel at home, thanks to a Honda that runs on compressed natural gas (CNG). Homes with an existing CNG supply can refill the Civic GX using the Phill fuelling system. Sadly, the lack of homes using the gas in the UK means there are no plans to offer the system here.

Red Bull ace David Coulthard...

Red Bull ace David Coulthard is not ready to give up racing just yet. Despite announcing his retirement from F1 on the eve of the British GP, the Scot hasnò€™t ruled out a return to the track.

Initially it was believed the 37-year-old was planning to stay on at the Red Bull squad as a consultant. But speaking late last week, he revealed he would not be limiting himself only to that role. He said: ò€œI have an open mind as to whether I will compete again, so Iò€™m definitely not hanging up my helmet! Iò€™m still competitive and have the desire to look for new challenges within the sport.ò€

There are certainly a number of options open to the 13-times grand prix winner. He has a score to settle at the Le Mans 24 Hours, where he was robbed of a win in 1993 thanks to a technical infringement. And there is also the chance to join fellow F1 refugee Juan Pablo Montoya in NASCAR in the US. Red Bull already has a squad in the series, meaning Coulthard could slot straight into a drive.
