Vauxhall Astra (2009): the first sketches

By Tim Pollard First Official Pictures 08 September 2008 09:00 Vauxhall has just issued these first official sketches of the new Astra ahead of its launch in 2009 at next year's Frankfurt motor show. Although heavily silhouetted, we can make out an evolution of today's mid-sized hatchback. This sketch is of the coupe-style three-door Astra, but there will again be a more upright five-door and indeed a whole suite of other Astras to fit every pocket.

Audi Q5, Skoda Yeti, & Abarth 500 are the UK’s lowest depreciating cars

Audi Q5 - the UK's least depreciating car The key to low-cost motoring has more to do with depreciation than running costs, so pick an Audi Q5, Skoda Yeti or Abarth 500. The difference in residual values of cars after three years can have a huge impact on motoring costs. A £15k car that has strong residual values – like the Audi Q5, Skoda Yeti and Abarth 500, identified as the UK’s lowest depreciating cars by CAP (and published by Auto express) – could be worth as much as £10k after 3 years and 30,000 miles.

Fancy a bit of Ice Driving with Bentley in Lapland?

Enjoy the thrills of Ice Driving at the Bentley 'Power on Ice 2012' Experience The Bentley ‘Power on Ice 2012′ event offers the chance to drive the Bentley Continental GT W12 and Continental Supersports on ice in Finland. This time last year Bentley revealed that a convertible Continental Supersports had set a world record on ice in Finland of 205.48mph on the frozen Baltic sea in Finland, quickly followed by the announcement of a limited edition Bentley Supersports ‘Ice Speed Record’ to cash in on the achievement. Now, in the spirit of making the most of every success, Bentley are offering places on their ‘Power on Ice 2012′ trip back to Finland to play with the W12 Continental GT and the even more powerful Continental Supersports Coupe.
