Electric Cars That Aren’t a Tesla: Part 1
Elon’s Twitter acquisition has shone the spotlight on the kind of guy he is and not everyone is keen. Electric cars are starting to gain a foothold in the Australian automotive market. I regularly appear on ABC Radio Sydney and…
2021 BMW M2 CS Review
BMW’s fun-loving M2 scores more power, more stuff and some added rarity for its final bow as the M2 CS. Four and a half years ago I drove the BMW M2 for the first time. I was dead-set hooked. There…
2021 Bentley Bentayga Is Here
The big British bruiser has landed with a tightened front end and vastly improved rear, new tech inside and service plans. Still a twin-turbo V8, still big, still fast. The Bentley Bentayga, if I’m being honest with you (as I…
Mercedes-Benz Driving Events Review
You know what I always say – don’t track your own car. Instead, you can track, like, twenty of someone else’s, all in one day. Mercedes fan or not, this is a fun day out. BMW, Audi, Jaguar all do…
2021 Mazda MX-5 RS
Mazda’s evergreen, ever brilliant roadster scores some chassis tweaks for the old fogeys like me who once owned a 1989 NA Clubman. Oh, probably other people too. Mazda’s fourth-generation MX-5, the ND, is such a great car. It brings together…

Volkswagen T-Cross 2021 Review
One half of the T-Cross and T-Roc pair, the T-Cross is the German giant’s latest – and late to the party – SUV offering. If you could show Karl Benz what his creation would become, I reckon the small SUV…
2021 BMW 4 Series Review
A new BMW sports car is always a good thing and when it’s based on the excellent 3 Series and the styling makes people mad, it’s an event. I mean, really, the unhinging over the new nose has been more…
Volkswagen Golf GTI TCR Review
The Volkswagen Golf GTI TCR is the swansong for the Mark 7.5 (and, really, the Mark 7). With Golf R power and a few tweaks. Blimey. I say “hot hatch” and I reckon one person out of three will name…
2021 BMW M3 and M4: Australian Pricing and Spec
The 2020 BMW M3 and M4 have landed (after the usual, suspicious leak) with plenty of photos in lairy colours. And stacks of gear and power. Yep, it’s got that nose. And in what is sure to be a staggeringly…
