Time-capsule 1982 Mercedes-Benz 500SL uncovered October 24, 2025 What might be the most well-preserved Mercedes-Benz outside of a museum has been revealed. With only 42 miles on its odometer, and never registered for the road, this stunning Mercedes 500SL looks identical to when it left the factory in 1982. Finished in Blue Green Metallic, the time-warp R107-generation 500SL has been acquired by Mercedes-Benz [...]
Chevrolet Corvette Z06 2025 review: The American dream October 24, 2025 Before we begin, a quick note on pronunciation when talking about the Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Make sure you ignore any British English instincts, and instead refer to this model as a ‘Zee-Oh-Six’. It’s an important reminder that, while Chevrolet may have built the eighth-generation Corvette in right-hand drive for global markets, this is still an [...]
Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray review: an American icon faces the future October 24, 2025 Fans of the Chevrolet Corvette were shocked when, in 2019, their beloved sports car made the switch to being mid-engined. So spare a thought for how traditionalists feel about the new E-Ray version of the Corvette, which has all-wheel drive and hybrid power. Along with moving the engine to the middle of the eighth-generation ‘C8’ [...]
Aston Martin DBX S review: Our favourite luxury SUV October 21, 2025 When Aston Martin introduced the DBX707 in 2022, it expected this faster, more expensive model to account for 50 percent of DBX sales. Instead, fully 90 percent of customers plumped for the 707hp newcomer, and the original 550hp DBX was discontinued soon afterwards. The message was clear: Aston Martin buyers wanted more performance and they [...]
Rolls-Royce Corniche Shooting Brake review: Estate of the art October 21, 2025 Niels van Roij looks every inch the English gentleman. The Dutch-born designer is wearing an immaculately cut tweed suit with leather-lined pockets, topped off with a green woolen tie. Only later do I realise that identical fabrics were used to trim the Rolls-Royce waiting outside. “I have a suit created to celebrate each car, using [...]

Rolls-Royce Corniche Shooting Brake review: Estate of the art October 9, 2025 Niels van Roij looks every inch the English gentleman.

RML GT Hypercar 2025 review: pushing the Porsche 911 to its limit September 11, 2025 Does the world need another Porsche 911-based restomod? After all, that territory is already fought over by Singer Vehicle Design, Theon Design, Tuthill, Kalmar Automotive, Gunther Werks, Paul Stephens AutoArt, Ruf, Thornley Kelham and many more. The RML GT Hypercar, however, is far removed from a typical ‘backdated’ 964. With a current Porsche platform and [...]
Kia EV9 review: electric SUV is a Range Rover rival September 8, 2025 Kia has traditionally been the automotive equivalent of Aldi: a brand that majors on no-nonsense value for money. The new EV9, however, is the size of a Range Rover and costs from £65,985. It pushes Kia into conflict with upmarket SUVs from Solihull and Stuttgart – not to mention Hyundai-Kia’s own premium marque, Genesis. Can [...]
Kamm 912C Full Carbon review: Seeing the light in Porsche restomod September 3, 2025 Kamm describes the 912C as ‘an antidote to extreme hypercars’. After several hours spent exploring the back roads of Oxfordshire, I’m minded to agree.
