Top Gear host Richard Hammond tiring of being the 'cute, little' one You're really scraping the barrel if you're getting "news" from the Daily Star. If I wanted to read total crap, I would've paid 20p for the paper this morning. The quality of your articles has been on a steep decline for a long time, this is the final straw for me. Time to delete my link.

Porsche Design Shisha - smoke on the water My girlfriend is dragging me to Harrods tomorrow, so while she's gushing over shoes, I'm going to find this crazy contraption!

Lotus up for sale? I think Tony Fernandes should buy it, then instantly fire Dany Bahar. The man has publically admitted that he doesn't care about Colin Chapman's ethos of speed through lightness, which has not only enraged the brands fans, but proves he hasn't got a clue about running a sports car company. If you can't afford to develop 6 cars, don't develop 6 cars. Its as simple as that.

Subaru wants to double sales in the UK with new XV and Coupe models With a poor dealer network and no TV, radio or internet advertising in the UK, they don't stand a chance.

Find a Peugeot, win a trip to space I work round the corner from a Peugeot dealer and I have to cover my eyes whenever I see one of these monstrosities! No thanks, they can keep their ?30k wrapped in lies!

BMW standardizing new engine family to share parts Thats alright for your average "box on wheels" maker, but not for BMW. For the prices the cars demand (they certainly won't be cheaper to buy!) the engines should be designed with a bit more care than that. I would like to think 3.0s get stronger parts than 1.5s!

Nissan Compact Sports Concept car unveiled in Shanghai So this is showing us the Micra 3 door...not bad, a lot better than the 5 door thats getting poorly rated by the media at the moment. I hope this makes it to production and outside of the emerging markets, as that particular engine in the Juke is pretty impressive!

First Porsche 911 GT2 RSs delivered in North American [video] Delivered in North American? That sounds like they're being eaten first!

Spyker Backers Called into Question on Saab GM Deal Uh oh, sounds like Saab's going the same way as MG Rover. I'm not a Saab fan but I do hope they survive somehow.

Mysterious Renault concept caught undisguised [video] I thought the title of the video would've given it away! I'd say this is the new Espace concept, its development was halted at the start of the recession and allegedly restarted last year. The Espace IV is also the oldest model in the range. I don't think the Modus will be replaced as its sister car, the Nissan Note, caught the publics attention and sells well. Its like the Koleos, which has just been dropped in the UK. Its sister car, the Qashqai, is their 5th best selling car. I think the Clio IV will end up as the Zoe. The Renault v Zoe Renault lawsuit confirmed it was going into production, and as a brand, shouldn't have 2 cars competing for the same place in the same sector. That said, VW are going to do it with the Golf 5.5 Cabrio and the Eos, but they'd do anything to overtake Toyota at the minute!
