The Goodwood Festival of Speed is arguably the biggest public celebration of motoring in the world. For four days each year, the Duke of Richmond’s famous family residence, Goodwood House, becomes a focal point for any kind of road vehicle — from 19th Century pioneers to modern-day electric race cars and all points in-between.

If it’s the future, where’s our flying cars? Well, it turns out that they’re right here or, more specifically, the Goodwood Aerodrome, this weekend.

It’s not often that an automotive brand racks up the big 1-0-0, and you’d expect them to make a bit of a fuss about it. Bentley, which has a pretty spectacular history aside, is quite rightly taking every opportunity as it builds up to the big day next month.

As one Ford GT says goodbye — the racer that just wrapped up its program at Le Mans — another Ford GT looks set to say hello. And it’ll do so close to where the first GT40 was built, at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in Britain.

Over half a year after it initially revealed the new Shelby GT500, Ford has finally confirmed the all-important numbers for its pumped-up pony car. How’s 760hp and 625lbft sound?

Forget what you may or may not have heard of Tesla’s recent electric pickup truck promises. One Model 3 owner has already beat the Californian company to the punch, transforming it into what you see above: the Truckla.

Aston Martin’s second upcoming hypercar now has its official name. Previously known as the AM-RB 003, or “Son of Valkyrie”, the new hypercar has been officially christened Valhalla.

Fans of high-revving naturally-aspirated engines, rejoice. The Porsche Cayman GT4 is returning to the road, eschewing the rest of the line’s turbo flat-fours — and it’s bringing an open-top Spyder with it.

In what can only be described as a titanic effort, Team GTPlanet x Hooncorp finished the 2019 24 Hours Of Lemons New Zealand! Not only that, but we finished 22nd despite starting dead last, suffering a high speed crash, and battling some much faster cars.

After 13 months of racing, the showpiece end to the 2018-19 FIA World Endurance Championship is upon us: the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Aston Martin has become the first manufacturer to reveal its Le Mans “hypercar”, under the new rules for 2020-2021.

After around two years on the market, the reborn Alpine A110 now has a new, higher-performing model. Meet the new A110S.

Car enthusiasts like to stand out from the crowd. Nobody buys a shouty sports car to blend in — one only has to look at the garish colors you can choose for your 911 GT3 RS to see the evidence of that.

Bentley has taken the wraps off its latest W12-powered limo, the from-the-ground-up redesigned Flying Spur.

Mercedes-AMG isn’t quite ready to reveal its ultra-hot A45 hatch, or its coupe-style sibling the CLA45, just yet, but it has unveiled its engine. It’s quite some engine too, as simply the most powerful production four-cylinder ever made. Whoever said there’s no replacement for displacement had never heard of AMG.

Of all the words we might use to describe the Jaguar XE SV Project 8, “restrained” is not right at the tip of our fingers.

Although it’s no longer the fastest, quickest or most powerful car in the world, for many the McLaren F1 is still the best.

If you like driving the newest car you can get your hands on, new car finance is a wonderful thing. Leasing a car this way allows you to spread some of the cost of a brand new car over a long period of time, then give the car back and get a new one. Those folks who have a brand new car every three years like clockwork? Car finance.

When Volkswagen sent the ID R electric racer up Pikes Peak and dismantled the all-time record, it seemed like it’d be a one-off. After all, Volkswagen had built the car with the specific aim of beating the electric record for the climb.
