Called Auto-txt, the equipment identifies drivers via their telephones and detects instantly if their car is stolen. The latest Thatcham 5 device is alerted that something is wrong when a vehicle is started with its correct keys, but the owner"s Bluetooth-enabled mobile is not present.



I’ve been a TV...

I’ve been a TV presenter for more than 10 years, and have worked on a wide range of motoring programmes. But there’s one question I get asked more than any other by fans. No, it isn’t: “Do you use fake tan?” – that’s the second most common. Rather, it’s: “What’s the best second-hand car to buy?” And you know what, it’s a tricky one to answer – even for an expert like me.

Music or performance...

Music or performance – that’s the choice from these two new special editions of the Peugeot 207.

First up is the m: play, which is powered by a 1.4-litre petrol engine. It offers built-in MP3 compatibility thanks to a connection hidden in the glovebox. Priced from ÷£10,645, the car comes as a three or five-door in a choice of colours: Flamenco Red, Lacerta Green and Neysha Blue.

The second 207 is the 1.6-litre Sport XS THP 150. This turbocharged model can sprint from 0-60mph in 8.7 seconds and return 40.3mpg on the combined cycle. Weighing in at ÷£13,995, it’s a three-door only, and available in Bianca White or Aegean Blue. The car is based on Sport trim, and adds a variety of equipment to that version’s standard spec, inclu÷­ding 17-inch alloys, a colour-coded rear bumper, spoilers front and back and a full leather interior in black.

CONFECTIONER Cadbury decided back in the early Nineties that using cars as mobile ads would be a great way to promote its Creme Eggs. So the Midlands firm built a trio of promotional vehicles on the chassis of tiny Bedford Rascal vans.

These had their bodies removed and, in their place, car-sized Creme Eggs were constructed in glass fibre. Drivers looked out through a two-piece windscreen, while elaborate mirrors aided rear vision, as the pointed tail had no screen. The road-legal Creme Egg-mobiles pounded the UK network for years.
