Bugatti Veyron Centenaire heads for Geneva – Rumour!

One Lap of the Web: The Internet celebrates the Mustang

Fifty years ago, Muhammad Ali became the heavyweight champion of the world, "Jeopardy!" debuted, Lockheed went 2,000 mph with the YF-12 and a mop-topped band went on a television show to promote what would be shameless nostalgia for the next 50 years, even while it was happening.

The AA said petrol retailers and others had predicted that the UK's average cost of petrol would rise by up to 4p a litre in July.
