In the news this week, we discuss Touch 'n' Go's removal of a 10% surcharge in parking lots, Apple's $3.6 billion investment in Kia Motors, and why electric cars won't be on our roads so soon. We also take a look at the new Lexus LS500 Facelift, a special edition of the Maserati Levante S GranSport, and an updated Tesla Model S with an odd steering wheel.

In our car review, Richard reminisces about the 1980s as Daniel Fernandez tells us about an Italian legend: the Alfa Romeo GTV6 3.0 -one of the most revered, gorgeous and entertaining sports cars of the 1980s.
