Official photos of the 2012 BMW M5 have been “leaked” onto the Internet, possibly intentionally, and it looks just like how anyone would’ve pictured the new M5 would look, so there aren’t any real surprises.

The 2011 Canadian F1 Grand Prix was held a few days ago. While Formula One does not interest us, certain on-track antics make for fun viewing. In what looks like amateur hour, one of the race marshals stepped out onto the track to help clear the debris from a previous incident, all while cars are still racing. And then he slipped and fell. Twice.

The facelifted-for-2012 Eos is our second test car from VW after the Tiguan, so we got to try out the rather-entertaining 2.0-litre TSI turbo yet again. Of course, there is more to this car than just the engine.

The Honda Jazz, a sub-compact hatchback, is the kind of car that should be dominating its segment. And yet, it is the Toyota Yaris and the Nissan Tiida that have a stranglehold on sales, making the Jazz a niche product. For a while, we thought it was the price. Starting at a ridiculous Dhs 63,999 nowadays, and topping out at Dhs 71,999, you could buy a midsize sedan for that kind of dough, let alone a pint-sized runabout. But there was a time many years ago when the Jazz was actually cheap, and even then it wasn’t a familiar sight on Dubai roads.

As part of our fresh look at VW’s line-up, we’ve picked up a 2011 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TSI Sport&Style R-Line 4MOTION DSG. A facelift of this model has already been revealed, but it won’t differ much from this tester, aside from a new face. The ridiculously-long name also hints at several specifications, although all of it is not marked out with badges on the body.
