To be unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, the new-look Swede has reshaped rear lights, plus a redesigned bumper and bootlid. This sharper styling complements the more aggressive front end. The updated 9-5 is expected to hit UK showrooms in November, with major price rises unlikely. Only one diesel model will be available - a 150bhp 1.9 TiD - but a Biomass variant could be added once the green fuel is readily available here.

But if you think that...

But if you think that sounds expensive, Auto Express can reveal UK motorists paid í‚á£110million-plus in speeding fines last year. The shocking figure is revealed in Britain"s first-ever official guide to where the cameras are sited, free with this issue.

It comes amid claims that speeding has hit epidemic levels. RAC figures show fifty-five per cent of drivers admit to breaking the law - up 10 per cent on this time last year. And motorists had better watch out, if scientists at the Transport Research Laboratory get their way. In a report for the Department for Transport, it has recommended lowering the national speed limit to 50mph on most single-carriageway A and B roads.

The move would prevent up to a quarter of accidents without adding significantly to journey times. The TRL said minor country routes should have limits no higher than 40mph.
