    Yes, for the last few days we've been stomping the floors of the Paris auto salon, stuffing our Twitter account to the brim with the weird and wonderful sights from the show floor.

    And here they are all are, every one of our Paris tweets lovingly arranged into gallery form for your click-based delectation. Think of it as a buffet of automotive canapés, without the inconvenience of the bloating main course to follow.

    WARNING: contains a frankly excellent Dacia Duster joke. Reinforced corsets at the ready.

  • It's the brand new Espace! Unfortunately there are no plans for it to come to the UK. Or feature an F1 engine. Boo
