We have investigated a cosmological model with variable speed of light (c), gravitational constant (G) and cosmological constant (Lambda). The model is shown to solve the horizon, flatness and monopole problems of the early universe. We have found that with a certain variation of these parameters the model predicts a cosmic acceleration. The model also predicts that for a flat universe Lambda vanishes in both radiation and matter phases. If the gravitational constant is allowed to increase then we might not need the existence of dark matter.
