Cupra Raval
The Cupra Raval is a smaller Born, as the Ibiza is a smaller Leon. Except... not. First, Cupra had design freedom for the Raval, whereas the Born is a VW ID.3 in lipstick. Second, the Raval is FWD, the Born rear. It's first of a posse of VAG small EVs, engineered by Cupra/Seat in Barcelona. We drove a near finished disguised prototype – the visual reveal comes later.

RICCI'S PLAN TO SELL THE PAJERO IS IN TATTERS AFTER ITS PAINTJOB
A few months back I shared an unusually sensible plan of tidying up my Pajero Evolution with the goal of selling it to help finish the R34 GT-R restoration. This was approved by Steve @ SR Autobodies who agreed to pause progress until it was sold, resulting in a rare moment of automotive zen. For one car must be sacrificed in order to revive another.

Q: IS IRACING'S DOMINANCE UNDER THREAT?
If you know anything about sim racing, you'll be aware of iRacing. It's the thing Max Verstappen does when he's supposed to be getting a tight eight hours of sleep ahead of a Grand Prix. It's also the most popular online sim racing service, with hundreds of thousands of active users. Nothing else compares to it in terms of fair and competitive online racing, and if you want to experience the thrill of being a professional racing driver but your dad didn't own a petrochemicals company, iRacing is the closest you'll get.

“THE LIGHTEST BENTLEY FOR 85 YEARS... I'LL LET THAT ONE SINK IN"
Only the fourth model in Bentley's history to wear the Supersports badge is by far the biggest swing of the bat. 'Super Sports' v1.0 arrived exactly 100 years ago, was the first Bentley capable of 100mph and only 18 were ever built. The next came in 2009 - the pinnacle of the first gen Conti GT range two seats, 100kg lighter and capable of 204mph. In 2017 the second gen Conti GT got a Supersports too with a 700bhp version of the burly old 6.0-litre twin turbo W12, making it the most powerful Bentley ever at the time.

Two recent startups offer hope for Jaguar, says Jethro
Imagine starting a car company from zero. A real car company. One that wants to sell in volume and must adhere to all the rules and regulations that apply to Ford or Toyota. One that satisfies a market that demands reliability, convenience and a level of all round capability that was unheard of just a decade or so ago. The task list is laughably complex. From creating a brand that resonates with a broad audience, to engineering a product to exceed incumbent class leaders and ultimately to market and sell in a ferociously competitive space. Oh, and maybe try to make some money too.
