Choosing a green car...

Choosing a green car isn’t easy – especially if you live in the North! A Government-backed survey reveals garages in Yorkshire and Humberside are least likely to highlight how polluting a model is. Research by the Low Carbon Vehicle Partnership found only 40 per cent of these counties’ dealers display Department for Transport stickers listing mpg and emissions bands (right) on forecourt models. In top-performing Wales, it was nearly 80 per cent.

While Audi has cancelled...

While Audi has cancelled plans to build a diesel R8, the good news is itò€™s definitely going ahead with a drop-top Spyder model.

Tipped to reach dealers as early as 2011, the car will feature a full-length soft-top ò€“ maintaining Audiò€™s preference for lightweight fabric roofs over folding metal hoods.

Both V8 and V10 editions of the Spyder will be available, and all benefit from a full-length glass engine cover. To make the V formation stand out even more, itò€™s thought an optional lighting kit will be offered ò€“ allowing owners to illuminate the engine bay at the flick of a switch.

Audi has earmarked this yearò€™s Frankfurt Motor Show for the modelò€™s debut, but is remaining tight-lipped on prices. According to our source, the newcomer will carry a healthy price premium over the coupé, with entry-level V8s costing as much as Ò£90,000.
