The last WW before Christmas and I've got some bangers lined up. We've got why a once-popular racing series isn't, 10 race cars that should have got a better shake, a classic Targa race and a not-so-classic Holden. JakeSimRacing has a story on why
Hasn't this week just blown by? For your weekend pleasure, we have the story of a storied French car maker, a less-storied but fascinating carmaker, an even more obscure story of a forgotten car company, I break the rules of this edition with a video I just really
Well, it has been a little while, sorry for the break in transmission, had actual paid work happening. First up, a car I saw a lot of in my youth, a list of cars that you might find interesting, another car from my youth and a car Top Gear gave
An old burping Saab, a dubstep V10, another BMW (sorry), why a certain car is such a good driver's car and what to look for in a Focus ST. Aging Wheels buys a classic two-stroke Saab and, naturally, hilarity ensues. The Straight Pipes tackle my favourite BMW M
Jaguar allegedly broke the internet today, or they did according to a particular type of internet and media personality. Ahead of the launch of a design concept in a couple of weeks, the company released a spot called "Copy Nothing" to show off the new branding. As you
An affordable EV comparison, a shouty German brand is unveiled, impossibly stylish man interviewed, off-roader starter guide and an electric cop car. M'colleague Alex Misoyannis of Drive.com.au has put the BYD Dolphin and MG4 head-to-head in the under $40k EV battle. Best $40K electric car in
Renault's new small electric car has really caught my eye and I've posted about it and the Alpine A290 hot hatch as well. I've posted about them a lot. What gives? I am a hatchback fan. I love them for their size – particularly the
Cars. Travel. Coffee.
A V12 diesel Audi that can seat five, cool cars for cool guys, cheating cheaters, an age-old question answered and a new electric Alpine. Drivetribe brings us the story of the diesel V12 Audi Q7, one of the more surprising cars to come out of Ingolstadt. James Pumphrey from Speeed
Today we have a pretty awesome Maserati revival, a Tesla stuck between a rock and a hard place, crushing disappointment for GR86 fans and Tesla running out of buyers for its worst model. The really rather excellent Keith Adams at CAR has news of a Maserati restomod that I was
Last time I gave you a lot of background on Musk's and Tesla's bad behaviour over the last decade. This week, a bit more of that but a lot more of why the Cybercab in particular is bad and why the We, Robot event was a
Another great interview from CAR, this time Alfa's CEO, CAR's Luke Wilkinson interviewed Alfa's upward-moving CEO at the Paris Motor Show. I quite like this chap because he seems to have both saved Alfa from the Marchionne madness (yeah, fight me) and has sensible
It has been well over a (busy) week since Tesla's We, Robot event was held on the Warner Bros movie lot in Los Angeles. The idea of the title apart from being totally on-brand lame in a way only Musk and his companies seem to manage, was to
Sorry for the quiet week on The Redline, I've been moving house and wouldn't you know it, there's not a lot of time for website-ing! This weekend we have some of the real good stuff. A car almost too wacky to be an Alfa,
Another new car brand launches in Australia, BYD's head of European Operations has some things to say, new Prelude and Celica coming, Alpine A390 going Stateside and a Renault 5 review. Chinese brand Deepal is coming to Australia through Subaru and Peugeot importer Inchcape. Predictably it's
Another week has flashed by and I've dug up some primo weekend content to watch during the ads on the Bathurst 1000 if you're too cheap to have Kayo or Foxtel (like me). Scotty's Corvette video looks pretty good, we've got an
Car companies are slurping your data (who knew?), me on the radio talking about that and making people mad, hot hatch rivals shake hands on track, a new VW camper is out, more utes going PHEV and a gorgeous new French electric hatchback Just over a year after the Mozilla
Joining us here at The Redline for the first time is the ineffably brilliant Scotty Newman. Also known as Addicted To Sliding on Instagram and YouTube, Scott is an incredibly fast driver and has driven some of the wildest cars on Earth. Many of you will know him from the
Consumer advice is kind of what we do here (kind of?) so we'll start with a story about the roads in Australia with the most speed cameras. I live within 3km of five of the things, so it's a story close to my heart. We'
It barely makes my top ten. There are so many other stupid rules in Formula 1 and they're fundamentals, not details. After the Singapore Grand Prix, British motorsport media went into the usual meltdown when one of their brave little boys had something taken away from him. Daniel
