  2. Millbrook Proving Ground, one of the UK’s premier car testing sites, very nearly wasn’t in Millbrook. In the 1960s, Vauxhall’s owner, General Motors, wanted a vehicle testing facility in the UK, inspired by its historic Milford proving ground in America, right down to a similar mix of flat tracks and hills: 600 flat acres, 200 hilly ones. Vauxhall searched long and hard and found only three really suitable locations, two of which were in Wales and one in Scotland. Air-freighting cars to Scotland was thought too much of a faff, so one of the Welsh sites was selected. Until, that is, during detail planning, two farms came up for sale next to each other about five miles south of Bedford, between the villages of Millbrook and Marston Moretaine. It was bigger than Vauxhall needed and two million tonnes of earth would need moving to sculpt the hills exactly to shape, but it was also just up the road from Vauxhall’s headquarters in Luton. Work started in 1968 and in 1970 – 50 years ago – the GM-owned Millbrook Proving Ground opened. The early-1970s Victor FE that you see here was one of the first Vauxhalls developed at the site. The other car is the current Astra, one of the very latest Vauxhalls to have graduated from Millbrook. Which, via being a subsidiary of GM-owned Lotus in the 1980s and then a part of GM Holdings, is today a fully independent business with subsidiaries of its own – the frozen Test World winter-testing centre in Finland and Leyland Technical Centre in Lancashire. While neither Millbrook nor Vauxhall is owned by GM any more, the German engineers from Opel/Vauxhall used to like fine-tuning ride and handling in the UK and until recently kept a unit at Millbrook for the purpose. How far have the cars developed at Millbrook come in the past half-century? It has been a while since I drove a near-50-year-old car (my own doesn’t work), but Autocar road tested this mechanical specification of Victor in period, with ‘fifth wheel’ timing gear strapped to the back for obtaining performance figures. This saloon is a 2300, meaning it has a four-cylinder 2.3-litre petrol engine driving its back wheels through a four-speed manual gearbox. Peak power is 100bhp at 5200rpm, but it’s quite a lazy unit, with 138lb ft of torque from just 3000rpm. A big family car of the time, it’s 4.54m long, 1.69m wide and has a 2.67m wheelbase. As tested, it weighed 1344kg. Today’s Astra – a small family hatchback – has an engine barely half that capacity and shorn of one cylinder. But the 1.2-litre triple makes 143bhp at 5500rpm and a fulsome 166lb ft at 2000-3500rpm, owing to a turbocharger that gets going early in the rev range. It too has a manual gearbox – although of six speeds – and drives the front wheels, as has largely become the norm for all but executive and sports cars. Perhaps surprisingly, given that cars have tended to become bigger, the Astra, which technically sits in a lower class than the Victor, is notably shorter, at 4.37m, although with a similar 2.66m wheelbase. It’s wider, mind you, at 1.81m, which is no great surprise, considering modern safety demands. It’s claimed to be lighter, at 1280kg, but I suspect there isn’t much in it once the cars are laden. The bigger numerical differences, then, come in the powertrain. The Victor, in its 20 April 1972 Autocar road test, managed to get from 0-60mph in 12.4sec, although these things aren’t totally representative, because that car was fitted with the optional three-speed automatic gearbox, not the standard manual. We don’t have any as-tested figures for the latest Astra, but we don’t usually have difficulty hitting Vauxhall’s claims, either – a 0-62mph time of 8.8sec (call it 0-60mph in 8.5sec) is a 30% improvement in acceleration, with an engine half the size and the wrong driven wheels for a quick getaway. It’s also vastly less consumptive. While we have trouble meeting most official fuel economy figures, the Astra in our experience will approach 50mpg in mixed driving. The Victor returned an average of 21.6mpg on test. When we last road tested an Astra, it stopped from 30mph in 8.2m, while the Victor wanted an additional 1.5m – 18% more road – to stop. Although retardation of 0.95g is pretty good going for the old-stager. The differences feel more marked when you drive the pair. Most of Millbrook’s roads and tracks still follow their original layout, inspired by the Milford facility. Arranging them was “like trying to follow a recipe”, according to John Wathew, who was the Vauxhall engineer put in charge of designing the layout at the time. Most notably, there’s a mile-long straight with both a short and a now rarely used longer approach road (for if you want a higher starting speed), plus a high-speed circular banked circuit with five lanes of differing neutral-steer speeds, on which Millbrook modestly claims speeds in excess of 150mph are possible (Autocar contributor Colin Goodwin once lapped it at 180mph in a Jaguar XJ220). Then there’s a short handling circuit and, perhaps best known of all, the Hill Route (aka the Alpine test track): more than four miles of hills with gradients from 6.5% to 26%. It’s still my favourite test route in the country. I drive the Victor around them first. The initial differences between an old car and a new one are how airy old cars are. That’s because you wouldn’t want to crash one, I suppose. But the fact that there’s wood and blue carpets and velour and chrome is quite cool. Dated, obviously, but so too would be a 50-year-old suit or a 1970s living room. At least there’s a bit of character to it. The engine, when it can be persuaded to start, is refined enough and the gearshift is genuinely good. But it’s noisy. Road noise, wind noise, engine noise: you name it, it has it. And although a 70mph cruise is possible, the Victor prefers 60mph. Its performance reminds you of a time when gravity was your friend. Around the concrete inner handling circuit, whose sharp road edges and gravel always worry me, it’s a physical experience – the unassisted steering is nearly four turns lock-to-lock and I find myself shifting around on the broad seats as roll slowly sets in and the looseness of body control makes me fear the Victor will bottom out through the dips. But the tyres manage to squeal enthusiastically for the cameras and ultimately there’s reasonable grip. Swapping to the Astra, though, shows you just how far things have come – and mostly for the better. Refinement levels are sky high compared with the Victor, with much reduced wind and engine noise and only a little road roar. But what’s most notable is how little effort today’s car takes; control weights have been refined and moderated, with assisted steering way more responsive and the modern car rolling far less and turning more willingly yet also proving more stable at speeds, which in turn it holds much more easily. Old cars are lovely, but the new Astra makes the Victor feel like a pram in dynamic terms. You could argue, so I will, that the new car has a less characterful interior. It’s pretty austere and dark, and there are more than 40 buttons in there. But it’s also far more sculpted and infinitely more accurately finished. There is a sense of continuity, though. The two cars do the same thing (both are better than walking), it’s just that one is rather better at it than another. The basics – four wheels, a seat – stay the same. Away from the tracks, I park the Astra near Millbrook’s offices and laboratories. There are rather more of those now than there used to be, too, up to and including facilities for autonomous and connected cars and a testing centre for electric vehicle batteries. As with the cars, the basics stay the same, but it just gets better. Making Millbrook Milford Proving Ground opened in 1924 and in the mid-1960s GM wanted a UK facility built to a very similar standard. Vauxhall engineer John Wathew, tasked with leading the layout, eventually found two farms for sale near Millbrook. “The acreage was in excess of what we required, it had the adjacent hills and there was enough flat land,” he says. “There were a few issues that had to be scheduled into the building programme but otherwise it seemed perfect. We originally decided to call it Lidlington Proving Ground, rather than Millbrook, to avoid confusion with Milford.” “It was basically farmland with a winding road going through it. Even now, there are parts of the tracks that are still on that old road,” he adds. “All the surfaces that I created were inspired by Milford. It was like trying to follow a recipe. There were even exact gradients they wanted on the Hill Route, which had to be built in to the plan. I was told that, at the time of building, it was the biggest earth-moving job in the country.”
  3. Rabat – A group of Polisario supporters stormed a peaceful demonstration by the Moroccan diaspora in Paris on Saturday. The Moroccan demonstrators were expressing solidarity with Rabat’s November 13 action against the separatist group in Guerguerat. A video shows Polisario supporters violently attacking members of the Moroccan diaspora, who rallied on Saturday in Paris to show support for Morocco’s operation to secure the Guerguerat border crossing. Polisario militiamen had carried out provocative maneuvers in Guerguerat since September and on October 21 began a blockade of traffic between Morocco and Mauritania. Morocco’s Royal Armed Forces (FAR) intervened in the region to secure the flow of commercial and civil traffic, earning international applause — including from the Moroccan diaspora. Members of the Moroccan diaspora in several European countries, including Denmark, Spain, and now France held demonstrations to show support for the action. The videos from the demonstration in Paris on Saturday show a group of Polisario members kicking and trying to hurt Moroccan demonstrators with their separatist “flags.” Moroccans faced the attacks with patriotic slogans, waving the country’s flag. Some Moroccans can also be heard praising King Mohammed VI and calling Polisario supporters “traitors.” Videos online also show a group of Polisario supporters attacking a Moroccan woman for trying to defend Morocco’s flag. One of the videos shows the woman screaming and attempting to flee the violent attacks by the separatists. Moroccan activists strongly condemned the attacks, paying tribute to the woman for her courage to stand against the Polisario supporters. Some activists condemned the attacks and called for a legal case to punish the violent perpetrators. Despite the attack, the Moroccan diaspora in Paris expressed determination to continue to support their homeland. Morocco’s state media quoted some activists who participated in the demonstration, declaring solidarity with all of Rabat’s decisions. “The love for the Sahara flows in the veins of every Moroccan. The Sahara has always been Moroccan and will remain so for eternity,” said Naima Demnati, the president of the association Coeur Mediterranean. Mohamed Rakoub, the president of the Association of Franco-Moroccan Friendship, said the Moroccan Sahara remains the first question for Moroccans everywhere across the world. This is not the first time Polisario supporters carried out a violent attack against Moroccans abroad. Earlier this month, a group of separatists stormed Morocco’s consulate general in Valencia, Spain. Some of the separatists removed Morocco’s flag from the consulate to hoist their own “flag.” The governments of both Morocco and Spain condemned the violent attack.
  4. When it comes to finding the best PC case for you, there’s a lot to consider. First and foremost you have to consider airflow. Keeping your hardware cool (whether it's a high-end system with one of the best graphics cards or just a basic PC with a cheap CPU) and noise levels as low as possible is paramount to good system performance and your own peace of mind. There’s a lot to consider when choosing the best PC case, even in that small facet of case design. A mass of variables affect it, from the number of included fans (and total fan mount locations), to sound dampening material and overall shape and design, the list is long. And then there’s size. Are you looking for a cupboard-sized super tower, or a shoe-box-like ITX chassis? Choose the best PC case for you and it’ll serve you well through multiple builds, plus save some hard-earned cash in the long-run. That said, with hundreds of available chassis models and variants, where do you even start? Well, you’re in the right place. You'll find a list of the best we've tested in varying categories below. But first, here are a few tips to steer your case buying in the right direction. Cyber Monday Deals Cyber Monday shopping season is upon us and we're sure to see some worthwhile deals on cases, if you're holding out for a new house for your hardware. Be sure to keep an eye on our Best Cyber Monday Tech and PC Hardware Deals page not only for sales on cases but also on CPUs, SSDs and other internal components. Our current favorite case deal is the Fractal Design Meshify C for $69, reduced from $89. Quick Shopping Tips Figure out what parts you have/want first. Aesthetics are important, but before you get to that, you’ll want to know what motherboard, graphics card, and cooler you’ll be using, plus how many drives you’ll want to install. This will dictate the size and shape of the cases you should be considering. Cooling is key, especially in small cases or with lots of components. Airflow is important in choosing the best PC case, especially when it comes to high-end components in tight spaces. Check our cooler reviews for our cooling test results before buying, and remember that cases with tempered-glass fronts and tops often restrict airflow and may require additional fans. Choose a chassis that you like to look at. Unless you don’t care about aesthetics at all and are going to shove your new system far under your desk, it's likely to spend lots of time in your peripheral vision. Don’t forget to check airflow and that your parts will fit. But after that, find something that appeals to you visually, whether that be a glass-enclosed rainbow of RGB LEDs, or a simple black box with smooth lines and lots of top-mounted USB ports. There are tons of case options out there. You should take the time to find one that appeals to you visually. Best PC cases at a glance: 1. Fractal Design Define 7 2. Lian Li Lancool II Mesh 3.

  5. The latest M1-based MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro laptops have been attracting plenty of positive reviews in recent weeks, but the next upgrade to come to Apple's laptops might not be so substantial: the arrival of Force Touch on the Touch Bar. Patently Apple has spotted an Apple patent describing the new technology, suggesting that the strip that runs atop the keyboard on the MacBook Pros might become a bit more versatile in future editions of the laptop. Cyber Monday deals: see all the best offers right now! Force Touch essentially registers the amount of pressure applied to a touchscreen, as well as the touch itself. The technology has previously been added to, and then taken away from, the iPhone and the Apple Watch. Even Spotify is getting Stories Cyberpunk 2077 update on saves Rumors of new Galaxy Buds Exactly how the technology would be used on the Touch Bar remains to be seen – it might just be a way of eliminating accidental presses, which would be welcome to any MacBook Pro users who have inadvertently launched Siri while trying to hit the Delete key. Using the Force The Touch Bar was introduced to the MacBook Pro line back in 2016, and while it hasn't been a huge hit with users, it can come in handy for certain features – volume adjustments, controlling media playback, accessing app tools, and so on. Presumably if Force Touch gets added, then longer and harder presses on the Touch Bar will open up extra options, as they used to do on older Apple Watch and iPhone models. We'll have to see how Apple and third-party developments might choose to implement it. The 16-inch MacBook Pro is expected to be updated with Apple silicon at some point next year, perhaps with an M1X chip inside. It could conceivably also be the first Apple laptop to feature the Force Touch-enabled Touch Bar as well. As always with patents though, this is no guarantee that the feature will actually ship in an actual product: while patent applications give us a good indication of what companies are experimenting with, not every idea ultimately ends up being used. Apple's M1 chipset could have some major compatibility issues Via 9to5Mac

  8. Volkswagen CEO Ralf Brandstätter says the firm is fully committed to producing a small electric ‘people’s car’, with a target starting price of £17,800, as part of its fast-growing ID range. The German firm is currently rolling out a number of electric-only models on the Volkswagen Group’s MEB platform, starting with the ID 3 hatch earlier this year. The recently revealed ID 4 crossover will go on sale early next year. Volkswagen continues to invest heavily in developing its electric technology and Brandstätter said developing a new MEB-Lite version of the platform, designed for cars featuring smaller batteries with a capacity of up to 45kWh, remains a priority. Volkswagen intends to use the platform for a supermini and compact hatchback, likely carrying the ID 1 and ID 2 tags and intended to sit alongside the combustion-engined Polo and T-Cross respectively. The firm is aiming to sell the cars for between £17,800 and £22,200 pre-subsidy. Although it has yet to set a date for their introduction, they are unlikely to appear before 2023. The two new models will effectively replace the Volkswagen e-Up as the entry level of the VW electric range, with the smaller batteries reflecting their focus on lower-mileage urban usage. Brandstätter said Volkswagen will also work with its various Chinese joint-venture partners to offer “highly affordable” electric cars in that market and the MEB-Lite platform will also spawn a range of entry-level models from sibling brands Seat and Skoda. Entry-level models key part of wider EV plans An entry-level affordable ID model has long been a major goal for Volkswagen and is considered key to helping boost uptake of electic vehicles to hit its long-term sales goals and emission targets. Speaking recently, Brandstätter said: “We're working on these concepts. Of course, we have to take into account that lower segments will in the future be demanding EVs, and we're preparing concepts.” In September, sibling brand Skoda confirmed that its Citigo-e iV electric city car had been discontinued to make way for larger models and new EVs, with its Volkswagen Up and Seat Mii siblings expected to meet the same fate. There’s no word yet on a replacement for the po[CENSORED]r but unprofitable city cars, but Brandstätter said: “We're working on concepts for smaller segments. We will discuss it soon. Cars in smaller segments are important and very interesting for us.” Seat will next year begin production of its new Minimó electric quadricycle. It’s not yet confirmed whether that will be sold under a different name by other Volkswagen Group brands, but Volkswagen is considering urban-focused mobility solutions. “At the moment, we're focusing on electric vehicles,” said Brandstätter. “Of course, we have studied these last-mile proposals, and we have some concepts ready, but at the moment, there's no decision taken going to the market.” Volkswagen is keen to emphasise the flexibility of its MEB platform, which underpins the ID 3 and ID 4 and will go on to provide the basis of the ID 5 coupé-SUV, ID 6 saloon, ID Buzz van and an as-yet-unnamed model from new development partner Ford. A small electric sports car, as reported by Autocar in February, remains on the cards. Brandstätter refused to give details but said: “MEB is a very versatile platform. Year by year, we will inform you which kind of cars are possible.” Volkswagen's ID R electric performance car range is set to be topped by a Tesla Roadster-rivalling coupé/roadster arriving in 2025. Volkswagen’s commitment to building 26 million EVs by 2029 remains unchanged in light of the coronavirus pandemic, with planned investment in e-mobility across the Volkswagen Group now totalling €33 billion (£30.2bn). The launch of the ID 4 represents the start of a shift to electrification for Volkswagen’s burgeoning SUV line-up. Boss of e-mobility for the brand Thomas Ulbrich said: “In 2015, we decided to push the SUV market and start our SUV offensive. The ID 4 is the next milestone in this transformation to e-mobility as Volkswagen’s first electric SUV. “The ID 4 stands for carbon-neutral mobility and will mobilise millions, because it's a real global car. It will quickly become a top model, not in a niche, because the market segment is becoming more and more important.” The ID 4 will be built in five plants worldwide and sold across three continents but will receive subtle market-specific tweaks to its styling, interior and technological functions to meet different market tastes. Ulbrich said: “There are definitely regional preferences, so there will be some country-specific adjustments to the ID 4 depending on the region. But Volkswagen is really experienced doing that, as the Tiguan shows. “In essence, the customer wants and gets the same great technology: sufficient range, fast charging and, in a nutshell, a dynamic electric car.”
  9. Health authorities in the Souss-Massa region, central Morocco, have established a new field hospital to host COVID-19 patients in Agadir. The new medical facility, inaugurated on Friday, November 27, can simultaneously host up to 101 patients. The Ministry of Health equipped the new structure with “all the necessary equipment” to treat severe and critical COVID-19 cases, Morocco’s state media reported. Rachid Keddar, the regional health director in Souss-Massa, said Agadir’s new field hospital seeks to support the existing local medical infrastructures, notably the Hassan II Hospital, in light of the continuous spread of COVID-19 in the city. The health official assured that the establishment of the field hospital comes only as a preventive measure, as the capacity of the local Hassan II Hospital is still sufficient to treat COVID-19 patients with severe and critical symptoms. He also emphasized that the fatality rate of COVID-19 in Souss-Massa is one of the lowest at the national and international levels. The creation of the field hospital comes as Agadir continues to record hundreds of new COVID-19 cases almost everyday. On November 27, the city recorded 190 new COVID-19 cases. In previous days, it recorded between 210 and 270 new infections. The epidemiological situation in Agadir forced local authorities to impose new preventive measures. Last Saturday, November 21, local authorities announced the closure of Souk El Had, the largest market in Agadir, and beaches every day at 3 p.m. Agadir residents are also under curfew between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m. and can only leave their homes for urgent medical or professional reasons. Cafes, restaurants, and shops have to close their doors before 8 p.m., while public transportation is no longer available after 9 p.m. Finally, accessing or leaving Agadir is no longer possible without a special permit from local authorities that specifies the reason for travel.
