    VW buying JLR?

    Couldn't see this anywhere else, apologies if it is. Is it an April 1 joke?

    all future JLR vehicles will be 'electrified' soon after the change of ownership,

    Blimey! Make sure you use an insulated glove when using the door handles.

    It might make sense...VW are possibly looking for more 4x4 / SUV models / expertise, given there are also surprising rumours about the next Amarok being based on a Ford Ranger.

    The new Evoque has just been launched - maybe the last? It looks like a mini Velar.
