https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/features/jaguar-xj220-30-why-v6-misfit-now-legend Want to own an example of that extraordinary breed of supercars that time after time broke all performance records in a 10-year spell from the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s? I’m afraid they’re all gone: any decent Ferrari F40 or F50, Porsche 959, Bugatti EB110 or McLaren F1 now requires a seven-digit investment. Apart from one. Despite being built in similarly microscopic numbers to the GTO and 959, despite being as quick or quicker than any save the F1, despite class-winning Le Mans heritage and despite being one of the most drop-dead gorgeous cars ever created, a Jaguar XJ220 can be bought today for around £400,000. A lot, I grant, but a fraction of what’s required to secure any of the others. It’s hard to believe it’s 30 years since Jaguar launched its ill-starred supercar, 34 since it first appeared in V12, four-wheel-drive concept form at the Birmingham show, and 29 since this title became the first and only magazine to conduct a full road test evaluation of a factory-supplied car. This car, as it happens. Now owned by XJ220 guru Don Law, it needs very little introduction here: J999 JAG is the very first production XJ220; it was Tom Walkinshaw’s own company car and the car he supplied to us to do that road test, which we then promptly crashed, the story of which you can read overleaf. First, though, let’s pause awhile to remember what we have here. On the one hand, it’s a traditional supercar – low, dramatic, impractical and fast. On the other, it’s so much more than that: to this day, the most rapid Jaguar road car ever built and a car that changed so much from concept to reality that Jaguar took reluctant depositors to court to make them pay up. It also won the GT class at Le Mans in 1993 before being cruelly disqualified for having its catalytic converters removed. Not that cats were even sti[CENSORED]ted in the rules, just that the road car had them, so the race car should have had them, too. The fuss from investors concerned the replacement of the 48-valve V12 of the concept with a 3.5-litre V6 turbo motor or, if you take the contrary view, it provided them with the perfect excuse in a recession to back out of a commitment made in a bull market. No matter that this engine had won races at the highest level in TWR Jaguar XJR-10 and XJR-11 racing prototypes. And it was fast. A 0-60mph time of 3.6sec is still rapid today, but consider it was achieved without four-wheel drive, traction control or launch control, but with tyres made from concrete by modern standards and a slow, manual gearbox. So let’s look at times against that brand-new yet perennial benchmark, the Porsche 911 GT3. Because of its traction advantage and flappy paddles, the Porsche outpaces the Jag from rest until they post identical 0-140mph times of 14.9sec. But the in-gear times tell a rather different story. Look at the 20mph increments above 60mph, when traction no longer holds the Jag back, and from 60-80mph to 130-150mph (the highest recorded for the Porsche), the Jaguar is not just quicker but wildly so, gapping the 911 by 0.5sec on average over each tiny 20mph sprint. It was the first car we ever tested that could run a 150-170mph time within the confines of Millbrook’s Mile Straight, too, and as the bloke who was at the wheel at the time, it’s not an experience you forget.

https://www.bbc.com/news/business-61762137 The US will no longer require air travellers to have proof of a negative Covid-19 test before entering the country from abroad. Officials said they were dropping the requirement due to the "tremendous progress" the country had made in the fight against the virus. The travel industry has been pushing for an end to the policy, which they say has deterred bookings, as families fear getting stranded abroad. The change comes into effect on Sunday. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will re-evaluate the policy in 90 days. The administration said it would "not hesitate to act" to reinstate the rule should new variants make officials believe it is necessary. "We are able to take this step because of the tremendous progress we've made in our fight against the virus: We have made lifesaving vaccines and treatments widely available and these tools are working to prevent serious illness and death, and are effective against the prevalent variants circulating in the US and around the world," a senior official told reporters. Cancelled flights fuel summer holiday fears US judge throws out Biden's traveller mask mandate The US introduced rules requiring air travellers to test negative within three days of their flight - or provide proof of recent recovery from the virus - in January 2021. US President Joe Biden tightened the policy to within one day of flying in December, as the Omicron variant pushed virus cases higher. The testing measure did not apply to land crossings. Most non-US citizens must still be vaccinated to travel to the country. The number of Covid cases in the US has dropped sharply since January, though the figures had started to rise again in recent weeks before plateauing. Deaths remain much lower than during the height of the pandemic because of the impact of the vaccination programme. The travel sector, which has seen demand surge as concerns about the pandemic wane, has said the US has lagged behind other countries in re-evaluating testing policies. The UK removed all Covid-19 test requirements for travel in March, as did Canada. Italy ended its testing requirements this month. On Friday, Canada also said it would pause random Covid testing at airports for the rest of June in order to reduce wait times for travellers. US Travel Association president Roger Dow said the change in policy would "accelerate the recovery of the US travel industry", while the International Air Transport Association said it was "great news" the "ineffective" measure was being dropped. Airline Virgin Atlantic also welcomed the move, saying it would "boost consumer confidence even further and support the rebound in transatlantic travel this summer". The US has been slowly easing Covid national restrictions. Last November, it lifted restrictions on travellers from more than 30 countries, including the UK, after a more than 18-month ban. In April, the US dropped its requirement that passengers wear masks on planes after a court voided the CDC's mandate. According to research by the US Travel Association, eliminating the test requirement is likely to bring an additional 5.4 million visitors to the US this year, boosting travel spending by 12%, "Today marks another huge step forward for the recovery of inbound air travel and the return of international travel to the United States," Mr Dow said.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-61767628 Former US President Donald Trump has hit back at his daughter Ivanka after she distanced herself from his unfounded claims of mass voter fraud. A probe into the 2021 US Capitol riots on Thursday aired a previously unseen clip of Ms Trump rejecting the claims. Mr Trump said Ivanka had not been looking at election results and "had long since checked out". Democrats argue the mob attack on Congress was the culmination of a months-long attempted coup by Mr Trump. Graphic footage and testimony of the 6 January 2021 raid on the Capitol in Washington DC was televised on Thursday by the US House of Representatives select committee. The prime-time hearing drew 20 million viewers on the TV networks. The broadcast included a clip of testimony by former US Attorney General Bill Barr saying he had repeatedly dismissed the outgoing president's claims that mass voter fraud had caused him to lose the election. Another excerpt was aired of Ivanka Trump's interview from April with the committee when she was asked about her reaction to Mr Barr's assessment. "It affected my perspective," Ms Trump said. "I respect Attorney General Barr so I accepted what he was saying." Mr Trump responded on his social media site, Truth Social, on Friday, labelling the inquiry a "WITCH HUNT!" "Ivanka Trump was not involved in looking at, or studying, Election results," he added. "She had long since checked out and was, in my opinion, only trying to be respectful to Bill Barr and his position as Attorney General (he sucked!)." The president also lambasted Mr Barr as a "coward", while continuing to insist the election was "rigged". Ms Trump was a presidential adviser in her father's administration and accompanied him to the rally that he hosted outside the White House just before the US Capitol attack unfolded. A handful of voter fraud cases have been prosecuted since the November 2020 election, but no concrete evidence has emerged of such criminal activity on any scale that could have swayed President Joe Biden's victory. The House select committee will hold another five hearings over the coming fortnight. Next Monday's session will attempt to show that Mr Trump and his inner circle knew he had lost the election, but spread claims of voter fraud anyway. The panel has conducted 1,000 interviews and gathered 140,000 documents over the year-long inquiry.

https://www.bbc.com/news/business-61729890 The housing market is showing signs of cooling, Halifax has said, as households face a squeeze on their finances. The mortgage lender said that while house prices continued to climb in May, with prices up 10.5% in 12 months, this was slowest rate of growth since the start of the year. The rise meant the average price of a house hit another record of £289,099. Halifax said that house prices have now climbed for eleven consecutive months. "Despite the very real cost of living pressures some people are experiencing, the imbalance between supply and demand for properties remains the primary reason driving the continued climb in house prices," said Russell Galley, managing director at Halifax. "However, the housing market has begun to show signs of cooling. Mortgage activity has started to come down and, coupled with the inflationary pressures currently exerted on household budgets, it's likely activity will start to slow," he added. "So, there is perhaps one green shoot for prospective purchasers; with overall buying demand down compared to last year, we may be past the peak sellers' market." Estate agents said the survey from Halifax confirms what they are seeing on the ground. "The cost of living crisis and successive interest rate rises are finally having an impact on the housing market," said Jeremy Leaf, a North London estate agency owner and a former Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) residential chairman. "Prices are still rising but not as rapidly as they were just a few months ago and activity is cooling." However, Mr Leaf said a major correction seemed "unlikely" while housing stock remained low, particularly for in-demand properties such as three- and four-bedroom family homes. According to Halifax, house prices increased by 1% month-on-month in May. It added that they had shot up by some 74% over the last 10 years. The strongest inflation in that period has been in London (84.2%), followed by the East of England (84%) and the East Midlands (82.1%). Danni Hewson, a financial analyst at AJ Bell, said the latest figures were "cold comfort" to people trying to get onto the property ladder. "Cooling, definitely but the housing market is unlikely to come off the boil, at least for the foreseeable future especially as it's becoming harder and more expensive to find places to rent." She added that the "age old problem" of demand outstripping supply wouldn't go away without a period of "unprecedented housebuilding". "And with money so tight at the moment, anyone who might have been thinking of hoisting the for-sale sign will probably hold off until inflation returns to something resembling normal," she added. Inflation - the rate at which prices rise - hit 9% in April, a 40-year-high, . The Bank of England has warned inflation might reach 10% within months, as the prices of fuel and food put pressure on household budgets.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-61729101 At least 17 people have been killed and dozens more hurt after a train derailed in eastern Iran, state media report. The train, which was carrying 348 passengers, came off the line between the cities of Mashhad and Yazd about 50km (31 miles) from Tabas. Emergency services officials said the train collided with an excavator before being knocked off the track. They warned that the death toll could rise because many of the injured were in a critical condition in hospital. Tabas County Governor Ali Akbar Rahimi told state media that four of the train's seven carriages were knocked off the line. Footage posted online by local media showed a number of carriages on their side, as well as a yellow excavator on its side by the track. National rescue service spokesman Mojtaba Khaled told reporters that a large rescue operation was under way and that three helicopters and 10 ambulances had been dispatched to the scene. State TV broadcast footage from a hospital where the injured were receiving treatment. One of them told a reporter that they felt the train brake suddenly and then slow before the derailment. An investigation has been launched by the Tabas prosecutor to establish how the train came to strike the excavator. One official suggested that the excavator might have been part of a repair project, the Associated Press news agency reported. Iran saw its deadliest train disaster in 2004, when a train loaded with petrol, fertilizer and cotton crashed near the north-eastern city of Neyshabur, killing almost 320 people. And in 2016, 49 people were killed when a train that had broken down was hit by another train in the northern province of Semnan.
