As well as managing the news content thatu2019s published on CARu2019s website, Jake also helps to build the news-based content in the Agenda section of CARu2019s monthly print magazine u2013 planning how new cars, big industry stories and exclusive scoops can be crafted into the pages of CAR.nnnnJake has been a car enthusiast even before he could walk, pointing out car models on the street while still in a pushchair. Growing up, Jake has always been around cars, attending motor shows with family, amassing a vast collection of toy cars u2013 even managing to steer some his parentsu2019 cars and drive a Ferrari 355 (on private land!) before he was legally allowed to have a licence.nnnnHe knew from being a teenager that he wanted to write about cars and the automotive industry, so he went to Sunderland University (the same university CAR contributor Chris Chilton went to, among other members of the automotive media) to study journalism through an NCTJ-accredited course from 2011. During his final year in 2014, he even created his own car magazine from scratch u2013 which you can still read right here u2013 and achieved a 2:1 Batcheloru2019s Degree.nnnnJake then cut his teeth working for Dennis Publishingu2019s automotive titles Carbuyer and Auto Express for two years; time at the former taught him how to drive a website content system like he stole it, and the latter refined his news writing skills.nnnnAt CAR, itu2019s his job to know whatu2019s happening at all times in the automotive industry, react to breaking news stories and direct CARu2019s team as to how to approach news content both in print and online. He interviews industry executives to either get the scoop or help flesh out a story happening in the automotive world around us, attends press conferences and events to get the story from on the ground and investigates the latest technologies being developed for and by the car industry.nnnnJake writes mostly about new car reveals, wider industry stories and articles surrounding electric cars. On top of that, heu2019s written countless drive reviews for CAR u2013 both in print and online u2013 as well as on our companion site, Parkers. Heu2019s also the custodian of the CAR newsletter, keeping you up to date with everything thatu2019s happened in the world of CAR.nnnnWhen heu2019s not driving, Jake is a big gamer. As well as hammering racing games, Jake spends a lot of his time on role-playing games and gets his real geek on with simulation games like city builders on the PC. When heu2019s not in the digital universe, heu2019s usually seen building the latest Lego kit or buying a new pair of trainers u2013 even if his house is rapidly running out of space to fit any more of either.nnnnOn social media, Jakeu2019s Instagram profile is filled with all of the cars heu2019s been lucky enough to drive over the years, and you can follow him on X (nu00E9e Twitter).

\/>\u25ba New S spec returns<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bentley has announced updates to its flagship four-door, the Flying Spur, with the first new editions available to order now.<\/p>\n<p>The new Flying Spur model is largely a visual update, led by a heavy facelift that changes the front end. Gone are the four headlights, replaced by two that are very similar to that of the current Continental GT. Bentley says this is the first set of single front headlights on a saloon since 1962. The bumper is also now integrated into the front end instead of sitting further ahead and, in other design news, fresh colours like dark teal will be offered.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/264549\/480x0\/flying-spur-2026-22.jpg?scale=down\" alt class=\"wp-image-264553\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/264549\/480x0\/flying-spur-2026-22.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/264549\/720x0\/flying-spur-2026-22.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/264549\/1040x0\/flying-spur-2026-22.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Also arriving on the scene is the return of the S specification. This model follows the same line as the Conti GT S, using a 4.0-litre V8 hybrid powertrain that develops a total of 671bhp. Bentley says the S can sprint to 62mph in 3.7 seconds and tops out at 191mph. S models also benefit from all-wheel drive, twin-valve damping, the brand\u2019s 48-volt active anti-roll tech and torque vectoring with an electronic limited-slip diff.<\/p>\n<p>That new S variant joins the rest of the Flying Spur, which consists of a standard model, a comfort-based Azure spec as well as high-performance Speed and ultra-luxe Mulliner specifications.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/264549\/480x0\/flying-spur-2026-24.jpg?scale=down\" alt class=\"wp-image-264555\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/264549\/480x0\/flying-spur-2026-24.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/264549\/720x0\/flying-spur-2026-24.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/264549\/1040x0\/flying-spur-2026-24.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p>As well as that Bentely has announced a new \u2018virtuoso\u2019 collection for the Flying Spur, inspired by that on the Batur.
