One lap of the Web: A Ferrari F40, Sebastian Vettel and random acts of 'squandering'

We spend a lot of time on the Internet -- pretty much whenever we're not driving, writing about or working on cars.

Updated 2014 Volkswagen Polo prices confirmed

Volkswagen has confirmed its new 2014 Polo supermini will go on sale in the UK on 23 April 2014, with prices starting from £11,100 for the entry-level 60hp 1.0-litre S variant. Prices rise to £19,715 for the range-topping five-door Polo Blue GT model fitted with VW’s 150hp 1.4-litre TSI petrol turbo engine with cylinder deactivation technology. It is mated to a six-speed manual as standard, or the firm’s seven-speed DSG gearbox as an option.

£70 fine for seven-second parking gaff

She then received a council letter in the post with details of the penalty notice, working out at £10 for every second her car was stopped.
