Lagonda back on

Lagonda SUV Concept - back on again To be honest, we’re not too sure that Lagonda was actually ‘Off’ after a rather disastrous debut at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show with their antimacassar-endowed, cushion-boasting Lagonda SUV Concept. We’d just assumed it. But if it was ‘Off’, it’s now back ‘On’ again.

Cadillac ATS priced at $33,990

The 2013 Cadillac ATS, which we first saw at the Detroit auto show, will start at $33,990 when it goes on sale this summer, General Motors said on Monday. The range-topping version will carry a price of $42,090. Power for the base model will come from a 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine that returns 30 mpg on the highway.

WINTER BREAKDOWN EXPENSE FOR USED CAR OWNERS

SOME VEHICLE components are nearly three times as likely to fail during the winter months as in the summer leading to potentially expensive repairs for the owners of older vehicles, according to Warranty Direct. The specialist insurer and warranty provider analysed 50,000 live automotive policies and found that ignition coils are 283 per cent more likely to fail between December and February than between June and August. Fuel injection pumps, thermostats and a number of electrical components are also more likely to suffer in the cold leading to an average winter repair bill of £408.60, the company has warned.
