The revised Auto Trader search box and menus
We’ve made a series of changes to the new Auto Trader website today in response to the large amount of feedback we’ve had in the past few months.
Here’s a quick guide to how the site has changed. Keep reading →
Six generations of the BMW 5 Series (click to enlarge)
A new BMW 5 Series has been unveiled, leading to a predictable argument among the Auto Trader editorial staff today about whether its conservative new design is an improvement over its divisive predecessor.
The sixth-generation 5 Series harks back to the plainer look of past BMWs. For some BMW devotees this will be a welcome change after the Chris Bangle-designed E60/E61 model.
But not me. I was a big fan of the last BMW’s looks and although I can’t say I dislike the new model, it is rather staid compared to the last car. Keep reading →
Severe floods have hit Cumbria
Towns in Cumbria have been hit by severe flooding which have left hundreds stranded.

We’ve just pulled together a bunch of pictures of spiders (or spyders, if that’s your preference) that’ll blow your socks off.
There’s topless stunners from Maserati, Spyder, Alfa, Audi, Ferrari, Lamborghini – and probably a bunch more we can’t remember. Keep reading →
The last round of this year’s British Touring Car Championship saw a sport quiz – but forget Bill Beaumont and Ian Botham, this was a Question of Motorsport.

The sight of a marooned Bugatti Veyron in a saltwater lagoon in Texas was enough to get us reaching for the Kleenex (steady).

It follows his trials as he rebuilds his beloved 1974 Ford Falcon coupe into a racing car – and the heartache and joy which inevitably follow.
