When Aston Martin unveils a new car, it’s a bit of a moment. The kind of event that gives you a reason to dust off the tweed, pop on the brogues and settle in for a proper look at what Britain still does better than almost anyone else: cars that stir the soul. And they’ve taken the covers off the Aston Martin Vantage Roadster and judging by the details alone, it promises to be something quite special.

The Suzuki GSX-8R is Suzuki’s much-anticipated follow-up album to the capable and fun GSX-8S. As soon as the 8S hit the streets, the public were crying out for an R version and Suzuki didn’t disappoint, delivering this little beauty.

For years, Volvo has been the steady voice of reason in the sometimes chaotic cacophony of the automotive world. Think understated elegance, unwavering safety and enough practicality to rival an IKEA flat-pack assembler. Enter then, the XC90 T8, Volvo’s flagship SUV that might just be the seven-seat saviour for families seeking a bit of Swedish sensibility.

There was only one way to review the LM 350h Takumi Limousine: to drive it as it was meant to be driven—as a chauffeur. I committed to chauffeuring a young aristocratic lady every day, allowing us to enjoy both sides of the LM 350h: the luxurious comfort of the passenger’s lounge and the perspective of the driver. It was an interesting week... But first, let’s start with the specs before diving into the emotional experience.

The "Daytona" name in the Triumph Daytona lineage originates from American rider Buddy Elmore's victory in the 1966 Daytona 200 race held at the Daytona International Speedway at Daytona Beach, Florida. It’s a great underdog story, look it up. Buddy raced a 500 cc T100.

The first road bike to wear the name was the Triumph Tiger Daytona in 1967 and since then, the name has adorned a long and distinguished line of Triumphs. 

The Furygan WB08 Vented+ jacket is a versatile and stylish option for riders seeking comfort and protection during the warmer months. Designed with a focus on airflow and adaptability, this jacket is packed with features that make it a great choice for various riding conditions.   

I haven’t worn this much yet as it arrived at the end of the summer, just as the weather closed in, but you will see plenty of me wearing it in 2025.

Christmas might be a few weeks off but Aston Martin is already in full swing. Say hello to the Valhalla, the new hypercar that Gaydon’s best have pulled out of their own AML Santa’s Sack. Forget socks and novelty jumpers this year - this is the only gift I want to see under my Christmas tree.

Lamborghini’s latest masterpiece, the Temerario, has officially landed in Europe, with London playing host to its dazzling debut. I was lucky enough to be part of the 700+ automotive specialists, clients, dealers and prospective buyers gathered at Ladbroke Hall, a venue with its own fair share of motoring history.

Deep in the heart of the Midlands is a place where Victorian heritage meets a kind of casual cool that doesn’t need strict formality to let you know you’re somewhere special. Hampton Manor might have the turrets and gothic windows from a Brontë, but it’s not here to take itself too seriously. This is less period drama and more hip retreat where the vintage globe in the corner is actually for storing the gin rather than a decorative effect.

If you're in the market for a nimble roadster that fuses classic charm with spirited performance, look no further than the Mazda MX-5 Convertible. This pocket-sized thrill machine promises heart-pounding excitement and a driving experience that harks back to a golden era—all wrapped up in a sleek, modern package. Let’s delve into what makes this car a true legend on the road.
