Motorsport photographer McKlein has launched a set of calendars for 2008, ranging from a huge, metre-wide World Rally Championship offering, to a more modest 67cm example. This features global sports car racing, Formula One and rallying from the Fifties, Sixties and Seventies. Two desktop versions join the line-up – one for rally fans, the other titled Porsche Racing Legends.

With a host of styling cues taken from the existing 3 and 6 models, the people carrier concept - called the MX-Flexa - points the way to a future replacement vehicle for the Mazda MPV, which has struggled to find buyers in the UK.

The firm"s new Aerokit styling package not only gives the coupé a more aggressive look, it also improves the car"s airflow. Changes are substantial - at the front there are individual lips below each air intake, while the rear gets a spoiler clearly influenced by the 911 GT3. More pronounced side skirts complete the look. Designed in a wind tunnel by the company"s motorsport engineers at Weissach in Germany, the new components reduce aerodynamic lift over both axles, meaning the Cayman will feel even more planted at high speeds.

Even though WD-40 is...

Even though WD-40 is the worldò€™s number one multi-purpose lubricant, when you lose the red straw ò€“ which helps with precision spraying ò€“ it can be a real pain. But the company now aims to solve the problem once and for all with its new Smart Straw can.

The pivoting straw means you can choose wide or precision spray patterns ò€“ we found the latter useful for lubing some sticky locks on one of our test vehicles.

As it is permanently attached, the straw was impossible to mislay. But because thereò€™s no lid on the can, itò€™s easy to spray some WD-40 by mistake.

We tested the product for durability by dropping it on the floor, and while some of the plastic chipped, the function of the straw wasnò€™t affected.Ò 

So while it doesnò€™t look groundbreaking, for those DIY motorists who are sick of losing their WD-40ò€™s straw, this can makes a real difference.
