You won"t fit behind the wheel, but this remote-controlled model of the luxury maker"s drop-top is the next best thing - and the price tag is nowhere near the ÷£130,500 of the 552bhp W12-engined original. Launched this week, the 1:10 scale replica has an authentic sounding Continental engine note and the front lamps light up. Get one at www.bentleymotors.co.uk or through Bentley dealers.

Young mums don"t apply for jobs due to the lack of focus on child care issues.
