In this weeks edition I will discuss General Motors' tests with the Chevrolet Volt and the sale of Opel. Plus there is news from Ford, BMW and Mercedes (sales figures) and the increase in sales within the India market.


Motor Sports news and results are from the double header meeting for the American Le Mans Series and Indy at Mid Ohio, plus the NASCAR race from Watkins Glen.


This weeks history is about Monteverdi, a Swiss manufacturer who typically replaced panels on cars and renamed them!


The technical article is about Coventry Climax engines, specifically the Formula 1 winning motors.
