Hot stuff

The humble boiler suit is the most versatile garment in history, beloved by mechanics, fashion models and world leaders alike. Style icon Andrew English has a few…

I Have Never: Lexus LFA

How does the LFA stack up with the benefit of hindsight? In the next part of his ongoing automotive education, Dan Prosser casts fresh eyes on a legend of the game

We’re delighted to announce a special event for Ti subscribers, in association with Bicester Motion and JBR Capital. Prepare yourself for a balmy summer evening car meet, running 5-8pm on Thursday 6 August at Bicester Motion.

The centrepiece of the event will be the inaugural Ti Concours d’Appréciation. Say it out loud and you’ll get a sense for what we’re going for. The theme is A motoring life well lived, and we’ll be looking for enthusiast cars that have been used and enjoyed as intended. The judges (that’s us) will be looking for great stories, war wounds and high miles – and prizes will be awarded to the cars that best embody the spirit of the occasion. If that isn’t your car, you are of course very welcome to join us for the evening anyway.

Ti contributors will also be present in force, having brought a selection of their own favourite vehicles to display. Food, drink and ice cream will be available on site.

La Dolce Vita

There are boats, there are beautiful boats, and there’s the Riva Tritone. Andrew Frankel, who knows nothing about boats, has his mind duly blown

Our Cars: Porsche 911 Carrera

Can time in another 911 that would seem to have what the Carrera lacks turn Andrew Frankel’s heart against the Carrera? Don’t bet on it

Tickets are £10 each, with total numbers strictly limited. Most of the tickets have been sold already, so promptness is recommended. We’ll be contacting ticket buyers directly with details of how to enter your vehicle into the entirely arbitrarily judged concours, should you be so interested.

Here’s the link to purchase tickets. If you are not yet registered with Bicester Motion, you will need to do so before purchase – select ‘Become a member’. It’s free and takes seconds.

We can’t wait to celebrate this passion we all share with our subscribers. Looking forward to seeing you there.

(Oh, and today’s review of the TWR Supercat will go live the moment the embargo lifts at 9am.)

Our Cars: Porsche 911 Carrera

After spending a day with Andrew’s basic 911 Carrera, Dan Prosser wonders if the car is too refined for its own good

The master of Molsheim

There is a small, thin air vent running across the top of each door of the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport and, frankly, it’s rather disappointing. This is an otherwise exquisitely...

Our Cars: Dan’s Golf GTI

The Volkswagen Golf GTI may not be the sharpest hot hatch around but, writes Dan Prosser, that doesn't matter one bit

Fit for purpose

The best cars have one thing in common, no matter how different those cars may be. Dan Prosser explains

Culture clash

You’d think that waking up feeling like a half-cooked boil-in-the-bag ready meal would be something to forget. A portion of meat soaked in alcohol. Coq au vin. Although I was rather...

Becoming a record breaker

When I was a kid growing up in the Seventies I only wanted three things in life, save marrying a Charlie’s Angels cast member which didn’t seem very likely...
