Lexus at 20
To mark the luxury Japanese firm’s 20 year anniversary in the UK we’ve been on a tour of four very special dealers. We’ve visited the smallest, largest, oldest and newest Lexus retailers in the country in two very special cars – the original LS400 and the latest green machine, the LS600h.

Day in the life of… Motorpoint
Car supermarkets are a different breed of dealers. Our man Batch finds out what the pile ’em high, sell ’em cheap approach really means by spending a day at Motorpoint’s freezing cold Burnley site.
