In a world of growing electrification, there’s one mainstream manufacture stubbornly sticking to its internal combustions guns; Mazda. I have great admiration for everyone at Hiroshima for this stance. Unlike other Japanese manufactures, Subaru included, Mazda have been slow on the hybrid/EV/FCV uptake. Sure, there’s a Mazda Axela...
It only seems like yesterday since the Lamborghini Huracan was first introduced. But that was 5 years ago and since then Lamborghini has sold more than 10,000 Huracans around the world. That’s 40% more than the Gallardo making the Huracan the most popular model to come out of Sant’Agata. So now it’s time for the Huracan to get an...
Every year the Tokyo Auto Salon gets bigger and better. But bigger and better also means more hectic crowds and cars displayed in tighter spots. That makes it hard to be able to see all the cars without any interruptions. That is, until the show ends and everything gets packed up. The pack up of TAS is just as impressive as...
McLaren is on a roll. Last year they launched the track-oriented version of the Senna, the Senna GTR, at the Geneva Motor Show. In the summer, the 600LT was introduced to compliment the Sports Series range, while the Speedtail became the third model in the Ultimate Series. 2018 saw McLaren sell 4806 cars worldwide, a 43.9% increase over...
For the third year running the Automobile Council brings classic and modern together in Tokyo. One of the few classic car shows in Japan, the Automobile Council is slowly building a reputation as the go-to show to buy and sell classic car, ogle at the latest and greatest, and get away from the summer heat. Held at the Makuhari...

But when Ferrari invited me to check out their two-day Racing Days event at Fuji Speedway, I couldn’t turn down an offer like that. I soldiered on and braved the scorching heat. Think of Ferrari...
If there’s one brand I don’t mind talking about over and over again, it’s Alpina. I love what they stand for combing supercar-baiting performance, exclusivity, and true usable comfort all wrapped up in a BMW body. So far I’ve tried out the 3-Series based D3 sedan, the 4-Series based B4 coupe, and now I’ve got my hands on a B5...
It seems everyday there’s some new SUV or crossover being launched. The world just can’t get enough of them and consumers are spoilt for choice. In all honesty a lot of them are all very similar. It’s hard to pick them apart as they’re usually just as dull and uninspiring. That’s why I’ve always liked Mazda’s...
The 88th Geneva International Motor Show kicked off earlier this week and as usual saw the debut of a whole host of bright and shiny new cars. Geneva may not be the biggest motor show on the calendar but it’s certainly one of the best and most important.From the latest physics-defying hypercars only the wealthiest of Swiss bankers...
