Lots of carmakers these days are fans of the retro special edition, but there isn’t really anyone that can do it as well as Caterham. When you’re starting with a Seven that hasn’t changed all that much since it had a Lotus badge on the nose in the 1950s, it’s fairly easy to go full…

Oh joy, Top Gear’s talking about the Dodge Charger again. Indeed we are. In case you missed it, we gave the Dodge Charger Sixpack our first US Car of the Year award just last fall (or autumn, depending on who’s editing this). It squeaked in at the last second to top the other cars in…

Raccoon City survivors are dying in mysterious circumstances. A young FBI agent returns to the hotel where her mother was murdered eight years ago and learns she’s being stalked. A pallid chap wearing too many spectacles at once is turning people undead as he walks past them in the street. And all we can think…

You wouldn’t expect a company to triple its range in one fell swoop, but in 2024 Polestar went from 2-only to 2, 3 and 4. The 4 being cheaper than the 3, huh? Both 4 and 3 are similar sized. And Polestar wants us not to be confused… Even more strange, the 4 and 3…

In 2016 Lewis Hamilton celebrated his British Grand Prix victory by indulging in an activity usually reserved for the world’s most famous rock stars: the humble crowd surf. And it made him late for the post-race press conference, which is cooler still. Everyone loved Daniel Ricciardo during his time in F1. Same went for his hilarious/disgusting/crowd-pleasing…

Well, who else would we start with? During his career, Moss accumulated 16 wins in just 66 races, which to this day is more than anyone else to have never won a championship. He finished runner-up in the Drivers’ Championship four times, and third on three other occasions. The closest he came to winning the…

Buying an affordable cabriolet used to be simple. Point yourself at any mainstream car dealer and they’d have several dinky drop-tops for sale. Remember the Megane CC, Micra C+C or Cascada? All banished by the rise of the crossover, with only the Mazda MX-5 and Mini Convertible left with a list price below £30,000 and…

Wibble… Exactly! This is the GMA T.50s Niki Lauda and it’s enough to make us go weak at the knees. Gordon Murray says this isn’t a ‘version’ of the T.50 supercar, but rather a parallel design and development programme around the same basic bones but with a very different brief. The T.50s is a track-only…

Mercedes-AMG is preparing a fully electric GT-style four-door performance coupe called the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe. Snappy title, likely head-snapping performance, if the Concept AMG GT XX that previewed it is anything to go by. And today, we learn the inside of this shiny, electric AMG is absolutely dominated by screens. Two of them. No,…
