Until fairly recently, the Mercedes range had no fewer than five cabrios to choose from. Now that’s been whittled down to just two: the range-topping SL sports grand tourer, which falls under the ageis of AMG, and the car you see here: the CLE. Essentially a distillation of all the best bits of the C and E-Class cabrios that went before it, the CLE straddles the compact and medium sized premium soft-top class, but that doesn’t mean compromises have been made.

Datsun was the original name given to cars built by Nissan and sold in Europe. The badge was dropped in 1984 in favour of the parent company's brand. Going through a rebrand is a risky and very expensive business. In Datsun/Nissan’s case it cost the company half a billion dollars… in 1984. Today that translates to roughly $1.3 billion just to change a name plate. And Nissan is far from alone.

The Peugeot 408 - coupe and family car in one (Image: Peugeot UK) PEUGEOT has form when it comes to coupes. For as long as I can remember it has offered a sleek three-door to complement its family-sized saloons. The 406 Coupe, launched in the 1990s, was widely lauded as being one of the best mass-market coupes and some critics even likened its looks to a contemporaneous Ferrari.

Bradford city hall (Image: Staff) ANYONE who wanted to be a local councillor has always needed a pair of broad shoulders. No one answers the call to public service expecting it to be all sweetness and light. Party politics means accepting the brickbats as well as bouquets. But something has changed in the past few years. Criticism has gone beyond reasonable argument. It has become something much darker and, as the story today about abuse of councillors shows, more dangerous.

The LM 350 has, er, distinctive looks (Image: Lexus) PEOPLE carriers. Once a family car mainstay, now they find themselves relegated to the margins, a distant runner-up to the incredible success of the SUV. But many of the qualities that made people carriers (briefly) popular in the mid-Nineties - lots of room for passengers, a decent boot, configurable interiors and a lofty driving position with a panoramic glass area for great visibility - remain just as relevant today.
