Mitsubishi offers longer warranty for L200 range; Kia announces price of Picanto 'City' addition
The multi-award winning Mitsubishi L200 pick-up truck now comes as standard with a 5 year/125,000 mile warranty. It is available across the entire range from the utiltity-spec '4Work', right up to the plusher 'Walkinshaw' and 'Barbarian' models.
Priced from £10,245 OTR, the latest addition to Kia's Picanto 'Originals' collection boasts rear parking sensors, ambient lighting, 14in alloy wheels and metallic paint - either Blaze Red or Bright Silver - as standard. All 'City' models are equipped with the 1.0 MPI engine and 5-speed manual gearbox.
A new sportscar is being developed by Florence-based firm Ermini. Its first car in over 50 years has initially been labelled '686', but anticipate a more exotic title for its release. The car will be rear-engined, four-wheel drive, and will make extensive use of carbonfibre and racing components.
Thanks to smaller 15in alloys and a larger rear spoiler, the new £21,995 Lexus CT200h 'S' model boasts a headline CO2 figure of just 87g/km compared to 94g/km for the standard car.
