To be fair to the dead wood Conservatives, I"m writing this column before their gathering is even over. But are Britain"s 50 million car users anywhere near the top of their priority list, or are they just thinking about their next leader who, if he or she lasts as long as the last three, will be irrelevant? Unlike those 50 million motorists and their passengers, who have valuable voting cards up their sleeves!

Among some of the more bizarre items found by roadside cleaners have been watering cans, ice skates and even a pantomime horse"s head! An estimated 1.3 million pieces of litter are thrown from cars every weekend, researchers claim.

This is what we call a recruitment drive! The US Air Force has teamed up with Galpin Auto Sports, famous for their involvement in the hit MTV series "Pimp my Ride", to create two heavily modofied muscle cars in a bid to attract more youngsters into its ranks.

The X-1 Mustange is finished in a matt white paint, with an ultra low and wide bodykit wrapped around oversize black alloys. Lamborghini-style scissor doors add even more drama to the exterior, but its the jet-fighter-inspired cabin that"s set to blow potential recruits away. Taking pride of place is a single centrally-mounted ejector seat, surrounded by hi-tech instrument panels and a flight stick, blurring the line between car and plane.

For those that prefer to fly under the radar, the Dodge Challenger VAPOR combines carbon-fibre exterior trim, blacked-out windows and an understated body kit to create a stealthy appearance. It"s even covered in radar-absorbing paint. Inside the cutting-edge cabin there"s room for two, and plenty of technology to keep you occupied. The aircraft-style controls are joined by a GPS tracking system, as well as thermal and night vision - doing away with the need for headlights.

Don"t expect to see the military models in a showroom near you anytime soon, but they will be travelling the US over the next year in an attempt drum up interest in the American Armed Forces.
