We have not evolved over millions of years to sit at a desk. In fact desks really only came in with writing, probably invented by the Sumerians over 3000 years ago. Now that may sound like a long time, but in evolutionary terms it is nothing, a blip.
With the advent of personal computing came longer hours spent staring at a screen with even less movement than before. We all know the concentration that computer work brings, hours can pass without moving.

Bentley Motors, the world’s leading luxury car maker, has helped raise €700,000 by providing the first-ever auction of an exclusive Flying Spur First Edition donated to the Elton John AIDS Foundation at a Gala last night in Antibes, France.

The Jaguar I-PACE SE was delivered in its own individual trailer by a very nice chap and we admired the grey and black styling together as he winched the impressive looking car onto my drive. It’s clearly not photogenic as it looks better in the flesh, much lower and sportier than you’d expect. It resembles a Paris Dakar rally car more than an SUV, so I was very much looking forward to taking this on a distance test the next day.

International Excellence Magazine chatted with Jack Lambert, Vehicle Dynamics Engineer at Jaguar Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations, about the exciting developments of the Jaguar I-Pace eTrophy and what it took to turn the production I-PACE into a street circuit racing, electric demon for the Formula E Challenge.

We’ll be following the Jaguar eTrophy with great interest.
 
This is a faithful rendition of our conversation.

Make no mistake though, the Isuzu D-Max Arctic trucks AT35 isn't just a statement piece, it's a very capable and hard working vehicle.
