I can’t go any faster… or slower
When you’re on a long, monotonous drive, there’s nothing better than sticking the vehicle into cruise control. I’ll be honest, I’m always a bit sceptical about it but it’s never steered me wrong (pardon the pun), so I remain a big fan. But this story of a Chinese driver might just make me think twice ...

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s a…
At this time of year, kids start looking up to the sky in the hope of spotting a red, magical vehicle flying over the chimneys in the distance. But it’s still a bit early for that, and I’m keeping my feet firmly on the ground for now. I’m not searching for reindeer, you see. But ... Read More
An unusual hitchhiker…
When I think of hitchhikers, I think of the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Well, either that or people on dusty tracks in the middle of nowhere somewhere in America in films, sticking their thumbs out in the hope of a lift. Either way, it feels like a concept that isn’t very 2022. Well, this ... Read More
Flying around the office in a Volkswagen…
Car manufacturers are always trying to one-up each other. With incredible technological advances in recent years, we’ve seen electric cars become commonplace, dashboards change forever, and driving becomes a completely different experience. But then come the slightly ‘out there’ inventions. And Volkswagen’s new electric office chair is exactly that. It’s not quite what people were ... Read More
The mystery of the buried car…
At this time of year, mysteries are all the rage. And this one is fit for Scooby Doo & the Mystery Gang, Sherlock Holmes, Miss Marple, or whoever your favourite detectives are… Because landscapers at a California mansion discovered something deep underground – a stolen Mercedes-Benz. The car had been buried and loaded with bags ... Read More
What’s the worst that could happen?
The famous Dr Pepper adverts posed the tongue-in-cheek question ‘what’s the worst that could happen?’. It’s become a catchphrase used in jest often enough, but rarely has it applied more than when a driver at the wheel of a Toyota WiLL Vi headed towards Japan’s oldest house. The little Toyota is an odd-looking vehicle with ... Read More
Honey and supercars – a match made in heaven?
There have been so many iconic duos over the years. Whether it’s Ant and Dec, fish and chips, Lamborghini and honey. Okay, you’re probably wondering what on earth the last one is doing in there. Well, it’s because there really IS a Lamborghini honey – but not everyone can get their hands on it. While ... Read More
Yet another world record…
If you’ve ever opened a copy of the Guinness Book of World Records, you’ll know that there’s a record for pretty much anything. We talked about the record for the fastest time changing a wheel on a moving car recently and there’s every bizarre record you can think of… Whether it’s the most cans ... Read More
Supercar equals super coffee?
We’re all well aware of the cost of living crisis by now… It’s everywhere you look, whether it’s the price of petrol, energy bills, or simply the cost of your weekly food shop. But recently I read an article about how the hospitality sector is starting to struggle as people cut back on the ‘nice ... Read More
