Auctioned Ferrari Dinos fetch more than £380,000

TWO FERRARI Dino cars have sold for a combined £383,000 during the same auction, despite one of them needing significant restoration.

A recently-restored 1971 Dino topped £250,000 inclusive of its buyer's premium, while the rusting form of a 1973 version still brought about a £132,500 sale.

Kia Quoris is production name for equally daft Kia K9

Kia has decided that its range-topping take on the BMW 7 Series should enter the market as the Kia Quoris.
