few weeks. Firstly, I have taken to two wheels and left the expensive four-wheeled transport at home as much as possible. Secondly, I went on holiday to the west of Ireland, where the roads are, even in the height of summer, pretty empty. It is a bit like driving around Devon and Cornwall, but without all the other tourists for company. There is a pay-off though, as the Irish roads are notoriously pot-holed, narrow and twisty. So, although the family was delighted when first clapping eyes on

distraction by Kate Edser
It did not matter a jot, though, because Ireland is the perfect place for a dawdle. The only folk who seem to rush around are the locals, whose modes of transport are older, dirtier and less plush than visitors’ cars. Even a farmer with a trailer full of sheep was doing better than the BMW on the progress front. ● What drives you to distraction? Email kate.edser@b-nm.co.uk if you have a driving story to tell us.
the BMW316 hire car I was supplied with for the week, they were slightly less enthusiastic a short while later, when the region’s only major main road ran out about an hour before we hit the borders of Connemara. I hit the “sports” button. But cornering, besides being what seemed a never-ending necessity, was a less-than-stable experience. So I gave up the constant gear-switching, kept to third and stayed off the throttle.

Farewell to Castle Combe legend CASTLE Combe Circuit legend Terry Sanger has died at his home in Pembrokeshire. He was 79. A highly-accomplished racer of cars and motorcycles, his involvement at the Chippenham track was deep. In 1953, as an apprentice at Bristol Aero Engines, Terry, pictured, intended to make his competition debut at his local circuit in a modified Ford 5cwt van, but was commandeered into marshalling. His racing debut came in a 500cc Tiger Kitten, which had a tendency to blow its excess fuel from the carburetor over the face of its driver.
Among numerous successes were three special-saloon wins at Combe (1967, 1969 and 1972) in a V8 “Fraud” Cortina, Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro respectively. Terry had also become a works driver for Marcos cars. He was spotted by Ford – and following his development of the amazing V8 “Fraud” Cortina, which brought him four British titles in one year, an unofficial works drive in a GT40 came along in 1968. This was followed up with an outing in the car on the 1969 Targa Florio. Later, Terry became an instructor and race official at Combe.

Alfa Romeo MiTo Sporty handling Alfa Romeos are supposed to be entertaining to drive, and the MiTo seeks to underline its sporting intentions with its DNA (dynamic – normal – all-weather) system. The technology can adapt steering, throttle response and stability control according to the conditions and the driver’s preferences.

Vauxhall Corsa
Fiat Punto
● BIGGER, better looking and more efficient, Renault’s fourth-generation Clio returns the company to volume credibility in the supermini sector. Bubbling with personality, it is an effervescent statement of intent from the French brand. Looking for a small car in this segment? This car is state-of-the-art.
● THE Vauxhall Corsa offers a feeling of quality and solidity that is unparalleled in the supermini class at any price. Couple that with refreshed styling, a range of economical engines and a much-improved ride and handling setup and you have a very convincing proposition. It is small wonder sales remain strong.
● FIAT claims to have perfected its Punto supermini, with an affordable package promising sleeker styling, clever technology and more efficient engines, most notably an innovative twin-cylinder TwinAir petrol unit. These days, this Italian contender probably will not be the first model you think of in the small-car sector. But it remains a smart, stylish and sensible choice.

More reasons to capitalise on good looks Alfa’s smallest model regroups with an improved range that represents keener value. Jonathan Crouch reports
Verdict The Alfa MiTo is based on rock-solid underpinnings that it shares with the Vauxhall Corsa and Fiat Punto. Its sleek shape, well-judged detailing inside and out, and impressively-economical engine range has helped Alfa enjoy a sustained sales surge. In a bid to make it even more competitive, the range has been tweaked, with smarter trim levels and more efficient engines.

But the real niceties are reserved for plush Distinctive range-toppers, with features like cruise control, sports pedals and rear parking sensors. Across the line-up there is a healthy safety provision that includes seven airbags, anti-whiplash head restraints and hazard warning lights that flash under emergency braking. There are ABS brakes with EBD electronic brakeforce distribution to maximise their effectiveness, plus the vehicle dynamic control stability system, which, along with anti-skid control and cornering brake control, will help you out in slippery conditions, or if you enter a corner too fast. Air conditioning is standard, as is a decent-quality MP3-compatible CD stereo and electric front windows. The MiTo runs on mechanicals that are shared with two of the best supermini products – the Corsa and Punto. And with that all-important Alfa style added into its mix, there was never much reason to doubt it would do good business for its maker. Striking look, solid build quality, advanced engines and all that Alfa heritage certainly seemed to have yanked on the heartstrings of the buying public. So the MiTo already had the ingredients it needed to succeed. But the latest refinements make it better equipped to capitalise on its good looks and the romance of the Alfa badge.

● A youngster enjoys the occasion There was action away from the stage too, when crowds were treated to the spectacular sight of 150 motorcyclists and their pillions arriving at the circuit during a ride-in. MotoGP broadcasters Gavin Emmett, Steve Parrish and Matt Roberts hosted a quiz – a battle won by a team of British Superbike riders. And motorcycling journalist and broadcaster Julian Ryder interviewed riders from Moto3, as well as Moto2 star Pol Espargaro, about their hopes for the weekend. In the entertainment zone were displays of trial riding and aerial jumps, plus vintage and classic bikes. Money raised at the Day of Champions will enable Riders for Health to get more health workers on the road in Africa, reaching people in remote rural communities. Riders for Health mobilises health workers with motorcycles and trains them to ride safely over the rugged terrain and to do daily checks on their machine so that it does not break down and leave vulnerable families isolated.
Info can aid medics
Helmet decal ‘may help save your life’ A NEW product has been launched that claims to give motorcyclists injured in road accidents a better chance of survival. The Emergency PAL helmet decal discloses vital information about the user, making it easier for medics to treat them at crash sites. The decal transmits the rider’s essential information, such as medical history and emergency contact details, to a mobile phone. Ian Cunningham, founder of Emergency PAL, said: “No one plans an accident or emergency, and in many of these cases the patient cannot respond when asked about their symptoms, medical history or current medication. “Medical first responders face an uphill battle to treat them and get them to hospital effectively. We hope that our Emergency PAL decal will make their job much easier by offering details of medical history, previous medical treatment and current medication, and emergency contacts, simply by interacting with the decal via their mobile device.” A biker’s information is kept secure and can be updated online as health circumstances change. Visit http://emergencypal.com to order Emergency PAL helmet decals. Decals are posted to the rider and can then be attached to the exterior of the helmet. Each decal weighs less than half a gram and is weatherproof and UV resistant. No matter how careful they are when riding, motorcyclists are much more vulnerable than car drivers. Motorcyclists are 75 per cent more likely to be involved in a fatal accident than car drivers.

Worst money-saving ideas revealed
Dodgy car DIY: the list of shame A BRISTOL motorist who fixed his car with empty cans and brown tape has made it on to the list of the 10 most dodgy DIY car repairs. The unnamed 19-year-old, whose antics made it into the list at number five, found what he deemed to be an ingenious way to fix his leaky exhaust pipe. He cut open a few beer cans and wrapped them around the damaged area, using brown parcel tape to seal it. This is one incident highlighted by automotive remanufacturer BBA Reman, which conducted a poll of 1,036 car owners in the UK to compile an ultimate list of the ten most outrageous DIY car repairs in the past 12 months. Top of the list was a man who attempted to use bubblegum to try to fix five small leaks in his car radiator. He also poured 250g of black peppercorns into the radiator, after reading that ground black pepper could help repair radiator leaks. His use of the pepper caused a strong smell and a blockage. A woman whose headlights stopped working secured two battery-operated torches to her bonnet
with rope. And an elderly man with faulty air conditioning attempted to cool down by taping 20 battery-operated pocket fans to his dashboard. One of the better repairs concerned a couple whose speedometer gave up the ghost. They bought an iPhone 4, downloaded a speedometer app and then fixed the device to their dashboard with an iPhone holder. And one of the worst was made by a young driver from Stroud, whose sunroof was stuck open. He improvised with an open umbrella and a hefty amount of duct tape. Chris Swan, founder of BBA Reman, said: “As crazy as some of the examples here might sound, they raise the valid point that many people may be putting themselves or others in danger by carrying out DIY repairs, particularly on electronic elements of their cars. “It is because of this that we are therefore committed to letting car owners know that they can save money, as well as help the environment, by getting electronic car parts remanufactured as opposed to just having them replaced. Trust us, it is certainly the safer option too.”
Cadillac is believed to have been US star’s
Sincerely, Liberace’s car can be yours LEAD car in Barons’ sale at Sandown Park, Surrey, on September 17 is guaranteed to turn heads. Indeed it could probably stop traffic. The 1931 Cadillac Golfer’s Drop Head Coupe, above, which is believed to have belonged to flamboyant pianist Liberace, features 23.75ct gold-leaf-clad bodywork, silver external door handles and 24ct gold-plated internal door handles. These gleaming embellishments are the results of a lavish, three-year project carried out in the 1970s by the then owner, Jack Smith of Kansas. Mr Smith sold the car in 1975, and it has since spent 12 years on display in
a German museum, where it was presented as Liberace’s car. The gold-leaf coachwork is offset by white leather upholstery. A working hood completes this extraordinary vehicle, which also has driving lamps that move with the steering wheel. The car is powered by a 5.7-litre V8 engine, mated to a three-speed manual transmission. Guide price for this rare Cadillac – part of a large private collection which is being reduced – starts at £85,000. Visit www.barons-auctions.com for further information,
