Goes swimmingly - 27 July 2026
<h2>FOLLOW UP: COURT MAINLY RULES IN FAVOUR OF OEMS IN UK DIESELGATE TRIAL</h2><p>A UK judge has found mostly in favour of car manufacturers in the claims against them regarding defeat devices being fitted to cars between 2012 and 2017. The judge’s decision is based on her decision that a defeat device needs to be deliberately installed to create a different driving operation if it senses it is in test conditions, but this has not been proven to be the case. If you wish to learn more, <a href="https://www.lawgazette.co.uk/news/high-court-rules-for-car-makers-in-mammoth-dieselgate-claim/5127348.article" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">click this article link here</a>, from The Law Society Gazette.</p><h2>UK GOVERNMENT CONFIRMS PAY-PER-MILE FOR EVS AND PHEVS</h2><p>Following the public consultation, the Government has announced that it will introduce a pay-per mile scheme, named eVED, for electric and plug-in hybrid cars, from April 2028. As a result of feedback they have tweaked how the proposal will work. Vehicles under three years old will not have to undertake an additional check to the mileage prior to their age requiring an MOT. A picture of the odometer and an estimation of next years mileage will be sent by the driver. Drivers can opt-in to send the Government the vehicle’s mileage data directly via the connected systems on-board, if they wish. This is not mandatory. To learn more, <a href="https://www.electrive.com/2026/07/14/uk-confirms-mileage-based-ev-tax-from-2028/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">click this electrive article link here</a>.</p><h2>PORSCHE FINDS A NEW PRODUCTION CHIEF</h2><p>Porsche has announced that Christian Friedl will take over as Production Chief, from Albrecht Reimold. Reimold is stepping down at the end of August. If you wish to read more, <a href="https://www.electrive.com/2026/07/23/porsche-appoints-new-production-chief-reportedly-puts-more-ev-projects-on-hold/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">click this electrive article link here</a>.</p><h2>ASTON MARTIN SHAREHOLDERS FORM CO-OP</h2><p>More than 50% of the largest shareholders in Aston Martin have formed a cooperative to insure themselves against any new debt deal that would leave them taking disproportionate losses. During this time, the company has restructured its debt financing, with the revolving credit facility and some of the Yew Tree financing being paid off. Financial results are due to be announced on 29 July 2026. For more on this <a href="https://www.zetik.com/news/article/story_id-p008-157196" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">click this link from Zetik, here</a>.

Ford will bring a European Bronco inspired car and develop another C-Segment SUV with Geely. The Chinese company will be building two electric SUVs in the same facilities.

Does that step over the line into tracking far too much? Does it contravene the ICO’s rules on using ANPR? <a href="https://www.motortradenews.com/used-cars/carwow-launches-anpr-marketing-campaign-to-engage-with-drivers/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Click this Motor Trade News article link</a> to read about the plan from Carwow.</p><p><a href="https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/uk-gdpr-guidance-and-resources/cctv-and-video-surveillance/guidance-on-video-surveillance-including-cctv/additional-considerations-for-technologies-other-than-cctv/automatic-number-plate-recognition-anpr/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Click this link to the ICO’s own page on fair use of ANPR data</a> and camera systems.</p><p><h3>If you like what we do, on this show, and think it is worth a £1.00, please consider supporting us via Patreon.

The claim is it sits between a grand tourer and an SUV. The images issued appear to show the typical bluff Range Rover range front end, with a coupe style rear. Either this is a brilliant move to capture buyers who’ve lost out due to Porsche leaving or many years too late. The interior is really leaning into ‘minamilist’, with a very thin screen directly on top of the dash in front of the driver and a huge screen slapped in the middle, quite low down. Prices and specifications are yet to be revealed. <a href="https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/electric-cars/official-new-range-rover-gt-brands-most-saloon-model-yet" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Click this Autocar article link, for more</a>.</p><h3>Dacia Striker</h3><p>Dacia has revealed their latest model, the Striker. The overall design concept, jacked-up estate, is reminiscent of the Subaru Outback. Prices will start at a smidgen under £25,000, when launched in the UK, but the full price and specifications are yet to be released. <a href="https://www.motoringresearch.com/car-news/dacia-striker-estate-uk-price/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Click this Motoring Research article link, for more</a>.</p><h3>VW ID Cross</h3><p>Volkswagen has shown off images of their latest ID model, the Cross. Using the same MEB+ platform as the ID Polo, this will go up against the Ford Puma and Renault 4. There will be a variety of motors and battery packs offered, which will give ranges varying from 196 to 271 miles. Prices are expected to start around £25,000. <a href="https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/electric-cars/volkswagen-id-cross-revealed-271-mile-renault-4-rival" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Click this Autocar article link, for more</a>.</p><h2>LUNCHTIME WATCHES: FOTU 2026</h2><p>Last weekend was the 2026 Festival of the Unexceptional, from Hagerty. A much loved car gathering, where the common cars from yesteryear gather and everyone enjoys their trip down memory lane. For those of us who couldn’t attend, thankfully YouTube has many videos showing off the wonderful event. We have but a tiny fraction of what is out there, do go search for more and spread some love to all those who make content for us to enjoy.</p><p>To watch I Drive a Classic, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMVYvZe2_c8" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">click on this link to see what caught Steph’s eye</a>.</p><p>To watch Furious Driving, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kig4u1TdUvE" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">click on this link to see what caught his eye</a>.</p><p>To watch Jon Coupland Cars, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zS24se3rzk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">click on this link as he watched the cars enter the show</a>.</p><h2>LIST OF THE WEEK: 23 COLOURS WITH GREAT NAMES</h2><p>Classic & Sports Car have a list about some of the best named colours that you could have specified for your car. Do you agree with Andrew’s choice? What would you like to have, adorning your car just so you could tell people the name of it? <a href="https://www.classicandsportscar.com/gallery/23-car-colours-great-names" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Click this link to check out your options</a>.</p><h2>AND FINALLY: TECH BROS MAKE A BUS. AGAIN.</h2><p>In an ever increasing number times the tech bros design a transport ‘solution’ it turns out we already have that solution, but perhaps it hasn’t been maximised to exploit the customers enough. This time, Uber have designed ‘the bus’, albeit named the ‘Uber Shuttle’ that runs from Logan Airport, in the US, on a fixed route with dedicated stops. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBYp5QxnO4I" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Click this YouTube link</a> to then join in pointing and laughing and the ridiculousness of these companies.</p>
