Back From The Dead, Again
OVER THE COURSE OF THE automobile industry’s six score and 10 years, thousands of car brands have launched. Yet few have flourished, and today almost all have come and gone, save a handful. The car business is murder.
2017 Bentley Continental Supersports: Slower Than A Chiron But The Best Conti Yet
Eighty-nine years ago, Woolf Barnato and Bernard Rubin drove the famous Blower Bentley “Old Mother Gun” to victory at Le Mans. Today, you can buy a Bentley with nearly three times the horsepower and drive it to dinner. The 2017 Bentley Continental Supersports—the fastest, quickest, and most powerful production Bentley ever, which also happens to be the world’s fastest four-seater—is the pinnacle of the marque’s performance engineering, just as the Blower Bentley was.

Remembering David E.
UNLIT ARTURO FUENTE in hand, I scanned my home library’s shelves for something to peruse while enjoying an afternoon cigar.
Dreams Delivered
IT’S CHILLY AND gray, and reasonably hard rain is coming down, casting a pall over the otherwise lush, rugged beauty of this German-flavored slice of Switzerland. A terrible day to drive, a great day to be driven. I’m in the backseat of the all-new Rolls-Royce Phantom, and I roll down the double glazed acoustic-glass window to get a quick blast of fresh Swiss air. A cacophony of wind and water rudely intrudes into the cabin. Enough of that. The metal window button is cold to the touch when I press it, and as the window hits the seal it’s as if a set of noise-canceling headphones has suctioned over the car. Time to recline the seat, let my head hit the pillow, and enjoy the magic carpet ride.

Turning Point
JAGUAR LAND ROVER IS ON A ROLL. THE PATIENCE of parent company Tata Motors—and its willingness to invest in new product—means the two British luxury brands are healthier than ever. Land Rover, riding the global boom in SUV sales, is setting the pace and making the lion’s share of JLR’s profits right now. Jaguar, a latecomer to the SUV party with its new F-Pace, is playing catch-up as it moves away from relying on increasingly unfashionable sedans and niche-market sports cars. But both face near-term challenges.
The Baker, the King, Range Rover, and Me
ONE OF LIFE’S BITTERSWEET things is if you live long enough, many people you love, like, and admire will predecease you. That is the way it always was and, for the time being at least, the way it must be. But such realism was cold comfort today as I sat down to write about a couple sad car-world deaths, only to read of another, which I mention first.
