    Can a two-tonne truck be stealthy? VW seems to think so | Auto Express (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    With recent pick-up truck arrivals like the latest KGM Musso and Mitsubishi L200 attempting to steal away buyers, VW has responded by giving its own truck a bit of a moody makeover. This is the new Volkswagen Amarok Dark Label Special Edition. While the Amarok’s Ford Ranger underpinnings and basic design remain the same, the Amarok Dark Label Special Edition does away with loads of chrome and gets lashings of gloss black paint in its place. This finish covers several areas including the roof rai

    I really liked the Fiat Grande Panda, and then it broke | Auto Express (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Vintage car prices have dropped, so I bought an Austin Seven and couldn’t be happier | Auto Express (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Despite a number of objections being raised by both my fiancée and my finances, I recently decided to do what many would consider renouncing all common sense and buy myself a car that’s getting on for 100 years old. The car in question is a 1937 Austin Seven Ruby, and while it’s currently sitting in bits in my garage, I simply couldn’t be happier. Now it’d be grossly naive to expect a car of this age — or just about any classic or vintage car for that matter — to be without its foibles, and the
