The green light has been given for Donington Park to prepare for its hosting of the British Grand Prix in 2010. Bosses at the Leicestershire circuit received planning permission from the local council last week, allowing them to start major rebuilding work at the site.

The feature-packed SVX Defender is a limited edition with 200 cars for UK buyers. Metallic black paintwork, tubular side steps, new five-spoke ‘diamond-turned’ alloys and clear-lens lights brighten up the exterior.
Custom-designed Recaro front seats add to the visual drama once you’re inside, while there’s no shortage of technology to play with. A new audio system is included, and it comes with a subwoofer, USB port and an MP3 cradle, while there’s also sat-nav – features rarely associated with the Defender. Of the 200 being built, 140 examples are two-seater soft-tops, complete with a tailor-made black fabric hood. The remaining 60 are four-seater station wagons.
Production starts in the spring, with the first deliveries in early summer. Prices have yet to be released.
