By Anthony Henson, June 2, 2025 In the twilight of the motoring age, when the songs of engines still echo across the winding roads of England, there emerges a new champion from the halls of BMW M GmbH. The BMW M2 CS, forged in the fires of craftsmanship and clad in the lightness of carbon-fibre steel, rises as the heir to a proud and storied bloodline—its origins harking back to the fabled 2002 Turbo, a relic of speed and storm from an age long past.

By Anthony Henson, May 26, 2025 In the fair spring of the year 2025, by the silvered waters of Lake Como, beneath the ancient trees of Villa d’Este, the House of BMW did unveil a marvel—the Concept Speedtop, a chariot of rare lineage and noble bearing. Forged not for the common road, but for those of discerning heart and deep coffers, the Speedtop stands as a reimagining of the grand Touring steeds of old.

By Anthony Henson, May 19, 2025 It’s hard to say whether Nissan’s consideration of closing its Japanese manufacturing plants is a strategic move to prompt a government bailout, but one thing is clear: Nissan is in serious trouble. Two car assembly plants in Japan — along with overseas factories, including those in Mexico — are now under review as part of the cost-cutting plan the company announced last week.

By Anthony Henson, April 9, 2025 With each passing year, the charm of classic cars seems to grow stronger. While modern vehicles are undeniably superior in almost every practical sense—more comfortable, more reliable, better equipped—it’s hard to ignore the soul and character found in older machines. Of course, that sense of nostalgia doesn’t always apply—some brands, like Renault, seem perpetually stuck in the past, regardless of model year.

By Anthony Henson, April 3, 2025 I’m not sure if Mercedes realizes this, but the era of the truly well-engineered, luxurious Mercedes is over. When I say well-engineered, I mean over-engineered—back when they built cars as if cost-cutting were a foreign concept.

By Anthony Henson, March 12, 2025 Bentley’s Black Rose is not merely a car—it is a statement, a symbol of excess draped in the illusion of artistry. In an age where the planet groans under the weight of unbridled consumption, where wealth is hoarded while ecosystems collapse, Bentley unveils its latest indulgence: a machine wrapped in Black Rose metallic paint, its body trimmed with Beluga gloss, its accents dipped in satin 18K Rose Gold.

By Anthony Henson, March 7, 2025 I have to say, Volvo is my go-to manufacturer at the moment. The consistency in design and the build quality—both exterior and interior—are unbeatable. OK, they may not be as thrilling to drive as a BMW, but to be honest, only a few BMWs are truly fun to drive. With the new fully electric ES90, Volvo stays true to itself. A spiritual successor to the S90 sedan, the ES90 leans more towards a sedan-MPV hybrid.

By Anthony Henson, January 29, 2025 I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen news articles about flying cars. It feels staged—every summer, without fail, a new feature pops up in print or online (though, let’s be honest, who even reads print anymore?). The flying car is trapped in its own cycle of hype, perpetually framed as “just five years away” from commercialization. This isn’t new.
