When MINI launched the all-new fifth generation of the British-Bavarian modern classic, the MINI Clubman, the large station wagon version of the venerable hatch, would not be soldiering on. Following its discontinuation, 1,969 units of the MINI Clubman Final Edition are to be built as a send-off. That number references the year the original Mini Clubman was introduced and out of those 1,969 units, only 20 are allocated for Malaysia.

Despite looking like a Golf, the VW ID.2all concept car presented last month may not enter production (target 2025) as an electric successor to the iconic VW Golf, but a replacement for the VW Polo. In an interview with Automotive News Europe, VW CEO Thomas Schafer said the company has not come to a decision on the next generation Polo, as the European Union’s upcoming Euro 7 emission regulations will push prices too far up for the Polo to still have a business case.

Forget your Bugatti Chiron or 740 PS Volkswagen Golf, the Ford Focus is in fact the fastest car in the world. That’s exactly what an Italian woman woke up to when she was sent a speeding fine claiming she zipped past a speed trap at 703 km/h in a 70 km/h zone. That’s almost the cruising speed of a Boeing 747 and probably broke a couple of rules, so she was fined EUR 864 and docked 10 points off her licence.
