    BRITISH restomod specialist Rocketeer Cars has set its sights on reshaping the perceptions of those misinformed few who still refer to the Mazda MX-5 as “a hairdressers’ car”. New funding means that the Hampshire-based operation, which has sold more than 30 updated and upgraded MX-5s and over 150 self-build kits to date, is now upping the ante with a brace of three-litre V6-powered models.

    A QUICK glance at the MG ZS Hybrid+ spec sheet pretty much answers the questions about whether this Chinese-owned British brand is onto another sales success. I often gleefully refer to my Rotherham gym as the “land that inflation forgot”, due to its remarkable value, and MG showroom’s could share the description. MG offers SE and Trophy specifications of its Dacia Duster rival at £22,495 and £24,995, ensuring it undercuts its value-driven rival on price.

    India and Pakistan are both nuclear-armed states. This simple fact has cast a long and often ominous shadow over South Asia since the late 1990s, when both countries formally declared their nuclear capabilities.

And once that line is crossed, escalation control becomes very hard to manage.

    The Red Sea’s importance to global trade – and therefore global politics – shows no sign of diminishing anytime soon. One way to tell is that there are two aircraft carriers there already and another – a British one – on the way. There’s a solid correlation between global hotspots and aircraft carrier presence, although I’m fully aware that those who think warships in general and carriers in particular are now obsolete are a tough crowd to convince.

Spotted quite a few @PolestarCars #Polestar4 EVs on local roads in recent days. South Yorkshire's car buyers must be reading my regular road tests in the @rotherhamtiser... Here's what I had to say: https://t.co/ytUVAV2IAR

The first 'quick' road test from last week's @MaseratiGB driving day at @GrantleyHall_? The near-£200,000, 761PS #Maserati #GranTurismo #folgore. Surely a contender as the market's most handsome #EV... https://t.co/d30uzS7uKi

Had an unexpected visit from a former @BBC_TopGear star this morning... @LandRover's own Series 1 #Defender was temporarily disgorged onto my street from the HGV collecting last week's (exceeding more modern) test car. What a little beauty! #LandRover https://t.co/KUif1TvMdc
