The big news - employee mileage payments, misfuelling and Lancia's return to the UK

The lead story for issue one found Birmingham City Council hit with a £39,000 fine after breaking employee contracts by cutting business mileage rates. The council was also hit with a £100,000 legal bill for the pleasure.

While some manufacturers have eradicated the problem of misfuelling with nozzle technology such as Ford's Easy Fuel system, the repair costs hit Lloyds TSB Autolease (ahead of its merging with Lex in 2008) with a bill of more than £250,000 from its fleet of 130,000 vehicles. Fiat Group also talked up its plans to relaunch Lancia in the UK, although in the end it merged its brand into Chrysler here when the rebadged Ypsilon and Delta eventually launched in 2011. The Delta has already been dropped and it's likely the Ypsilon will not be replaced.
