Today, we pay homage to the legendary Marcello Gandini, the mastermind behind some of the most iconic supercars in automotive history. Gandini, the father of the supercar, left us at the age of 85 on March 13th, 2024. His visionary designs, including the Lamborghini Countach and Miura, have left an indelible mark on the car world and continue to inspire generations of designers and car enthusiasts alike.
Dive into the heart of London’s transport debate with “Superloop vs. Electric Car: Epic London Challenge | Full Route Comparison!” Launched in July 2023, the Superloop bus service was introduced by Transport for London and the London Mayor to enhance connectivity in outer London. So the Superloop is intended to replace your car. But how does it stack up against the convenience of a personal vehicle?
Chancellor Jeremy Hunt delivered his budget today (6 March 2024), probably the last budget before the General Election (and of the current Conservative Government?) – so what was in it for the motorist? Good news or bad. What seems like positive news, keeping the freeze on fuel duty, a closer examination by the RAC reveals, it’s not all as great as it seems.
Six months on from the expansion of ULEZ (Ultra Low Emission Zone) to cover the whole of London, in August 2023 and the London Mayor still hasn’t released impact data to prove that it’s improved the air quality in the expanded zones. And it won’t be released until after the elections in May 2024. However, I shot two videos last year, taking an ELITECH Temptop air quality meter around London, covering firstly the previous ULEZ zone in part 1 and the proposed area of expansion in Part 2. This means I can directly compare my findings today, six months on from the expansion to the data I had before, to see if there has been any improvement in air quality. This is what I do in this video. And the results may surprise you – they certainly astonished me!
These little 15-second videos have proved very popular. So I’ve compiled them all here. How many can you guess correctly? Combined they have got over 50,000 views on YouTube along. Plus another 52k plus across my Instagram accounts, about 55,000 on TikTok – so more than 157,000 in total!

In this video I catch up with my dear friend Ovais Naqvi, who a couple of years ago completed his life-long ambition to establish a world-class karting circuit in Karachi, Pakistan. This year, for the first time, he took a team of drivers to compete at the Dubai Kartdrome against many international teams, and they managed to bring home a trophy! In this podcast I catch up with him and some of the team members and drivers to talk about the experience of competing in Dubai, how it worked out for them, what they have learned and what’s next. Suffice to say, they’ve definitely got the bug!
It’s brand new, it’s electric, it’s Chinese and it’s inspired by the Ocean. Plus, it can accelerate from rest to 62mph in under four seconds, putting down over 500bhp through all four wheels. Meet the BYD Seal!
