This Week in 1958: Montgomery, NY, hosts Governor's Trophy Race for the third year in a row

Nearly 30,000 spectators came to the two-day event in 1957, and race organizers were expecting even more in 1958.

The Porsche take on the Audi Q5 – the new Porsche Macan – looks set to be Porsche’s biggest selling model ever and means 1,000 new jobs at Porsche.

The GLA comes with a selection of four-cylinder petrol and diesel models; we’re testing the entry-level 200 CDI in top-spec AMG Line trim, yours for £28,030.
