Everything we know so far about the Ferrari 12 Cilindri
The V12 engine is the one most associated with Ferrari. It’s the powerplant founder Enzo Ferrari obsessed over when he set up the company in the 1950s, so Il Commendatore would no doubt be proud of his company’s latest effort. The Ferrari 12 Cilindri has just been unveiled at a glitzy event in Miami and it’s all about the internal combustion engine al naturale. No hybridisation, electric motor or turbocharger in sight.

UK’s rarest cars: 1977 Peugeot 604, one of only eight left
The 604 was associated with senior government officials in its homeland, preferably with the wings be-decked with tricolour flags.

Ask the Expert: Which of our cars should we replace with a five-door model?
My husband and I want to change one of our Peugeots to a new five-door. Mine is a 208 GTi, his an RCZ. I love my car’s glass roof, the sporty feel and the decent-sized boot; he loves his car’s style and sophisticated interior. But which should we change? We’re in our 70s, so would prefer a slightly higher car although I wouldn’t want to give up on style. What do you suggest for up to £40,000?
