It"s a double whammy of pricing news from Volkswagen. The Golf Plus mini-MPV, on sale on 1 June, will start at í‚á£12,895 for the 1.4-litre S.

These two pictures are the best yet of Fiat"s new large family car, which won"t be officially unveiled until March"s Geneva Motor Show. Slobodan, from Cambridge, contacted Auto Express soon after returning to the UK. "During our recent holiday to Sicily, my wife and I visited Mount Etna, and I spotted a heavily disguised Fiat. I heard it running and the car clearly had a diesel engine."
Despite the black tape, the photographs give a good idea of Fiat"s plans for its practical new model. The shape is MPV-like, and while the blanked rear side window blocked our view of the luggage space, it"s obvious there will be plenty of it.
The car has yet to be named, and is referred to internally as the Large. However, insiders have told us the fresh addition to the Fiat line-up will definitely come to the UK in right-hand-drive form, with the first deliveries pencilled in for next autumn.
