The Mazda MX-5 has, for four generations, offered a supremely heady package of low price, good performance and huge heaps of fun. It’s great to see then that the latest iteration has taken the World Car of the Year 2016 award as well as the World Car Design of the Year award 2016. This is in […]
It may be after Halloween, but a horror car is a horror car – all year round.

The vehicle, known as the Horrific H-0WL3R, is […]
The diminutive Mazda MX-5 appears to have all grown up. This latest car (it’s the mark 3 for those of you who like to keep up with such information) features a modernised interior and a choice of a 1.5 or a 2 litre engine. The 1.5 is eager and revs smoothly but the 2 litre […]
