Gordon Wilkins covers the motoring news of the week with Maxwell Boyd, Michael Frostick and Judith Jackson.

More than 35,000 motorists took part in a Daily Telegraph contest to find the best driver in Britain. Meet the winners of the top prizes - a Jaguar XJ6 and a Triumph Toledo - and watch them in action on the final tests at Cobham in Surrey.
Tonight's programme also reports on the future of Driving Schools and examines the prospects for insurance based on the driver instead of the car.
