Not content with the hatchback and Golf Plus variants, VW is now revealing this new Estate. The wraps come off the load-lugger at last week"s Geneva Show, and it will hit UK dealers in the summer. It features subtle changes up front, with an R32-style chrome grille and deep air intakes, providing the practical VW with a smart new look.

It"s got the class-leading Renault Clio and new Vauxhall Corsa in its sights - as well as the sales success of its predecessor. But let"s be clear. Meeting expectations in 2007 will require something very special. After all, the original Fabia accounts for half of all Skodas on the UK"s roads, and a total of 1.5 million have found homes around the world.

Called Ford Individual, the plan lets customers choose from a range of kit which they can add to the standard trim. There are three themes: "sporty", which adds alloys or metal pedals, "luxury" offering leather and wood, and "hi-tech" which is aimed at those interested in rear view cameras and sound systems.

Working away at stubborn marks on your car can be hard going ò€“ but the Sonic Scrubber Pro Detailer takes over for you. The powered tool now comes with new heads and a rack to keep everything in place.

Weò€™ve tested the Pro Detailer before, and the new version impresses just as much, particularly when shifting brake dust. The three heads include a soft bristle brush, which we found ideal for cleaning delicate areas such as the interior, where it removed dried-on grime without scratching surfaces.

A firmer, cone-style head proved perfect for lifting brake dust from the join between alloy wheel spokes and rim. The medium bristled large brush was more of an all-rounder.

The new set isnò€™t perfect, though ò€“ while the stand keeps all the heads tidy, and makes storage easy on a garage shelf, theyò€™re a loose fit. So, when we moved around the car to work on different areas, they fell out all too easily.
