Defending Car Culture: The Petrolhead’s Battle
Automotive enthusiasts must act now to preserve car culture against encroaching threats to out motoring freedoms
You don’t notice it at first. The chatter. It’s pathetic, then it’s amusing, then it’s mildly annoying. But it’s background din. Easily drowned out by the thrumb of a V8 at barely above idle. Irksome but insignificant.

2.0 Petrol Boxer MHEV Engine & AWD for Under £40k!
Subaru doesn’t do things like everyone else. While most brands chase style over substance, dazzle you with tech, and try to convince you how sustainable-savvy they are, Subaru quietly gets on with making tough, dependable all-wheel-drive SUVs that outlive most of their owners’ vegetable patches (as they witness weeds reclaim their allotment ambitions).

7.6 Million Used Cars Sold in 2024 (UK)
UK Used Car Market Hits New High!
Did you buy a used car in 2024? If so, you were far from alone! In fact, a staggering 7.6 million second-hand cars changed hands across the UK last year, marking a 5.5% increase over 2023. That’s over 400,000 more transactions—or nearly half a million extra cars moving from one driveway to another.
Tesla Sales COLLAPSE
Is Musk to Blame?
Tesla, once the rockstar of the electric vehicle (EV) world, is now facing a spectacular nosedive in sales. From being the cool kid that made EVs sexy, to becoming the awkward uncle at the family barbecue who won’t stop ranting about MAGA — January 2025 has been a brutal wake-up call. In just a month, Tesla has gone from the top two spots of the UK sales charts in December 2024 to completely vanishing from the top ten in January. The question: is this a natural shift towards better alternatives, or has Elon Musk’s twitchy Twitter fingers tanked his own empire?

1989 BCG BMW E30 325i SE – BLOG, video reports & Instagram posts
BCG BMW SOLD! The End of an Era for My Classic E30.
8 February 2025 – Well, here we are. The BrownCarGuy BMW E30 325i SE – the BCG BMW – has officially moved on. The keys have been handed over, the last revs have echoed through the streets of Brent, and the car park suddenly feels a little too empty.
Honda-Nissan Merger CANCELLED!
Why Did Nissan Walk Away?
Not long ago, I posted a video and article about Honda and Nissan’s proposed merger, a deal that could have created Japan’s second-largest car manufacturer. The idea made sense – combining forces to compete against Tesla, BYD, and the growing dominance of Chinese EV manufacturers. It would have allowed both brands to share technology, cut production costs, and accelerate their transition to electric vehicles.
Trump’s Auto Tariffs Explained
Could This Crash the Car Market and Make Your Next Motor More Expensive?
For nearly three weeks, I’ve been trying to write about Donald Trump’s return to the White House and what it means for the car industry. But every time I sit down to put my thoughts together, bam! – another policy shift, another executive order, another round of economic chaos. Trying to keep up with this has been like watching Final Destination – one unexpected turn after another, except instead of people dodging fate, it’s automakers dodging tariffs.
So, what’s going on? How will this affect the cost of cars, the future of electric vehicles, and – most importantly – your next car purchase? Let’s break it all down.

Mazda’s Biggest, Boldest SUV for Europe Yet!
Mazda want to do it all. They want a big new flagship luxury SUV. That’s also hugely practical and a versatile seven-seater. Plus, thrifty economy and the ability to emit slightly tanked-up butterflies at most. It also needs to be relatively punchy when it comes to performance and can prove a tasty steer despite it breadth and width. Meet the new 2025 Mazda CX-80, the brand’s new top dog three-row SUV for Europe. This isn’t just Mazda’s largest and most spacious SUV – it’s a bold statement aimed at premium rivals like the BMW X5, Audi Q7 and Land Rover Discovery. But does it have what it takes to challenge the establishment?
