Drive what you draw

If you’re reading The Intercooler it's a pretty sure bet you’re into cars and driving. You no doubt have a dream garage in the back of your mind should your numbers come up...

Ford Puma ST review

On the surface, it’s quite hard to work out what kind of car the new Ford Puma ST is, or even wants to be. Not really a hatchback, nor quite an SUV, is it even the sharp...

We wanted to let you know we’re going to start trialling a new feature today. The good news is that it’s completely free and all it requires is for you to log onto Twitter and follow our account (@_theintercooler), so you’ll forever after be in on the game.

Called ‘Ask The Intercooler’, it is exactly as described. At 7pm this evening (Wednesday) we will send out a tweet inviting you to ask us anything you like, so long as it has at least something to do with cars. And, for an hour, one or more of us – today I’ll be in the hot seat – will do their very best to answer as many as possible. If lots of you get involved and if my head doesn’t explode with the effort, we’ll do it again in a fortnight and so on for as long as there’s a decent demand. If not we’ll pretend it never happened.

You can ask sensible questions, silly questions, questions about cars, car culture, car people, car racing, old cars, new cars, future cars, The Intercooler, motoring journalism in general, motoring journalists in particular and anything else you can think of. Make sure to tag @_theintercooler and use the hashtag #asktheintercooler

Look forward to hearing from you later.

Ineos Grenadier Quartermaster review

In pick-up configuration, the Grenadier is even more flawed than the extremely flawed 4x4 from which it’s derived. So why was Andrew Frankel sad to see it go?

Ask Goodwin

From why he doesn’t like hypercars, to riding his motorcycle into the back of a bus while on one wheel. Our agony uncle is back. By Colin Goodwin

How the R26.R got its belts

Never mind the stripped-out interior, the polycarbonate windows or the carbon fibre bonnet. The most amazing thing about the 2009 Renault Sport Megane R26.R...

Mud-u-like

When the Defender arrived, I had this fond hope that I’d spend a sizeable amount of the few months it is to spend with me slithering around the greenery...

The end of Group B

The 1986 World Rally Championship was marred by tragedy and, says Hamir Thapar, its consequences would change the sport forever

Wide load

Driving off a Cornish beach this summer we encountered a hold up – half an hour of hold up, in fact. Not unexpected in a country still largely holidaying at home, but this one was special...
