💡 The Saab Sonett III is Sweden’s odd little sports car, and nearly all of it is cleverer than it looks. The body is fibreglass over a sheet-steel box-section platform, restyled at the nose and tail for 1970 by Sergio Coggiola and adapted for production by Saab’s Gunnar Sjögren. The pop-up headlights are raised by hand on a lever, because an electric motor was judged too expensive.

Power is a 1.7-litre Ford V4, 65hp, through a four-speed transaxle, good for 103mph. Saab built 8,368 before US safety and emissions costs ended it in 1974. This 1971 car has had a body-off restoration and wears yellow over its original blue. Underrated, or just strange?

Not every issue starts with a warning light. Sometimes it's the little things that are easiest to ignore that end up causing the biggest repair bills.

Here are five small problems worth addressing early:

• Minor oil leaks that can worsen over time.
• Worn brake pads before they begin damaging your brake discs.
• Low coolant levels that may lead to overheating.
• Unusual noises or vibrations that could indicate developing mechanical issues.
• Tyre wear or incorrect pressures that affect safety, handling and fuel efficiency.

Regular servicing helps catch these issues before they become major repairs, saving you time, money and unnecessary stress.

✈️ Bristol Cars came out of the Bristol Aeroplane Company, and it built cars the way it had built aircraft: by hand, in small numbers, and sold from a single London showroom. The Beaufighter arrived in 1980, a turbocharged development of the Zagato-designed 412, and it was the first British luxury car with a turbocharged V8 under the bonnet — though TVR had got Britain its first turbocharged production car back in 1976.

The engine is a 5.9-litre Chrysler V8, quoted at around 300bhp, and Bristol never published an official figure. Nor did it publish production numbers: this 1987 car is said to be the 16th of just 18 built, though club records disagree. Handsome, or just odd?
