BLACK AGAIN FOR RANGER

Ford is launching a limited edition of its Ranger pick-up at Frankfurt next week. Called the Black Edition (can’t the car industry be a bit more imaginative for a change?), the run of 2,500 units features a de-chromed body in Absolute Black, with a black radiator grille and wheels, sports bar and exterior detailing. Inside there’s an eight-inch touchscreen, leather seats and dual-zone climate control.
