Note: Sirius Signal recommends checking and replacing batteries at the start of each season. For extended use, carry spare batteries for additional run time Note: The principle ingredient in Marine Flares a highly toxic substance, Perchlorate. One improperly disposed of flare can contaminate 240,000 gallons of water. 30 million flares will expire in the next 3 years. Only 9% of those flares are likely to be disposed of properly. Many get tossed into the water. The Sirius SOS distress light is a sound alternative to dangerous and toxic marine flares. |

We never pictured the Ariel Atom as a police car, but now that Ariel Motors has actually equipped one with all the appropriate police gear, it makes perfect sense. It's light, it's highly visible, it's relatively cheap to run on a daily basis and it's wickedly fast. Ariel Motors has teamed up with the Somerset Constabulary in the south of England to equip an Atom 3.5R, which features a 2.0-liter 350-hp engine from the Honda Civic Type R, with the necessary police gear.

The new 2014 BMW 4 Series (pictured) on video
It seems to have taken a while for the BMW 4 Series – the replacement for the old 3 Series Coupe – to arrive – but now it’s here. Revealed last week, the 5 Series is a convincing take on a coupe version of the 3 Series, so convincing – and with more room in the back than before – that its seems likely it will take a bigger share of ’3 Series’ sales than the previous generation coupe. Not only is the overall package of the new 4 Series more convincing, so is the spec level.

Lexus RX 450h Review Part 2
Until January owners of the RX450h can drive through the London Congestion Zone free of charge. But Boris has put the kibosh on that, and from January only cars emitting less than 100g/km CO2 get a freebie. Which has buggered things a bit for Lexus by taking away the RX450′s USP as a posh SUV that’s cheap to own in London.
