Mercedes-Benz has announced that its GL-Class luxury SUV will cost from £59,465 for the GL 350 BlueTec diesel and £91,680 for the GL63 AMG when sales start in January 2013. Standard equipment includes AMG styling, 21-inch alloy wheels, parking assist, COMAND infotainment system and DAB radio.

The 2013 Chevrolet Camaro Hot Wheels Edition made its debut last month at the SEMA show and has now reached UK, with prices starting from £40,020. This is the first time ever for an automaker to produce a Hot Wheels production model.

The upgraded car continues a model line that started in 1976, with 15 million examples sold globally – and for 2013, it’s going to be cleaner than ever, with no less than seven model derivatives – both diesel and petrol – dipping under the 100g/km barrier.
