Take the Honda Civic...

Take the Honda Civic as an example. Although the striking new model arrived on forecourts earlier this month, it has yet to hit values of its predecessor, the MkV. As such, used buyers are being advised to wait a few months before striking a deal. Jeff Paterson, senior cars editor at trade bible Glass"s Guide, told Auto Express: "Honda is one of the few brands whose outgoing models experience a price rise when a replacement appears." However, the effect typically lasts only a few months, so buying a used Civic MkV should make perfect sense by late spring.



Owners of the tiny machines...

Owners of the tiny machines are causing havoc across Britain, and local councils have received hundreds of complaints about them. Now, tearaway teens who ride illegally could soon find the brakes being put on their activities.

It"s the pride and joy...

It"s the pride and joy of enthusiast and mechanical engineer Ron Patrick. "I wanted the wildest street-legal ride possible," he explained. "I don"t know how fast it can go, and probably never will! I built it to thrill me, not kill me - but I can"t resist taking it for the odd "run" up the highway."

Ron modified the super-Bug in his garage in California, US. It runs off two powerplants: a standard Volkswagen petrol unit, which drives the front wheels, and a customised kerosene-fuelled helicopter turboshaft motor giving extra thrust. The gears shift in accordance with Ron"s own design of Cool, Big-Fire and finally Afterburner, to achieve a whopping 1,350bhp.
