A school-run oil burner that’s hard to beat off-road

Damage at Britain's largest cemetery was being assessed today after dry conditions caused by the unusually warm spring weather sparked wildfires.

Trade figures came out much rosier than expected yesterday as Britain's exports to regions outside the EU hit a new record, thanks in part to car makers such as Jaguar Land Rover and Rolls-Royce selling more to the US, Russia and China.

Land Rover has released the first pictures of a possible convertible version of the Range Rover Evoque.

It is an absolute and unchallenged masterpiece of industrial design.
