Today we host the first (and possibly last) Weekend Australian Motoring in the Business Section Arts and Culture Awards, the Wammies . . .

Today the definitive guide to what to do if your new car is a dud . . .

You know how much I hate to make a big deal of when I’m right and everyone else is wrong. It’s like that Stirling Moss and I never drop names . . .

Talking of running hot, so far 36 Beemers have caught fire in South Korea . . .

Adelaide’s Richard Bulfa is not a Weekend Australian reader. He’s just a hardworking Filipino-born Australian contractor who uses his own van to do deliveries for a major supermarket chain . . .

Before we start getting into where you’ll be staying around Pebble Beach in late August for the world’s greatest auction and concours mania events, let’s look at the most controversial piece of old metal to come up for sale this or any other year . . .

This is one of those days when too much news is barely enough. Hope you had your Foxtel on late at night last Sunday to watch one of the greatest F1 drivers of all time drive one of the greatest races of all time . . .

Friends, it was action all the way to the finish yesterday afternoon on Princess Wharf on the HOBART waterfront. In the final stages one car rolled, about for four found walls and nearby farms, the Lambo that went into the cow paddock yesterday and a Ferrari both were disqua...

Friends, you think you know excitement. You were excited when the Saints went into the 2010 grand final against Collingwood and then less excited when they drew. You were excited when you turned 21 only to be less excited when you realised you had to pretend to be responsib...

Friends, at 7.41am yesterday morning we decided to give the other 140 entrants a chance. Yes we decided to stop the starter motor working so we had to push start the might 1990 BMW 3 series (it celebrates its 30th birthday in 2020…30 car years is the equivalent of 193 huma...

Friends, you know the feeling when too much excitement is barely enough? Today was one of those days. Apart from a Ferrari missing a left hand turn 50 meters from the start and going straight into the lush Tasmanian trees, and a Lambo just running off the road

Firiends, the Weekend Australia Rally Team (WART) is competing in this year’s Targa Tasmania. This is basically the Shitbox Rally Team in a better car.

Friends, you and I have to stand together. It might interrupt F1 qualifying, your mingling in the Parc Chalet with the upbeat cocktail bar, garden, modern fit-out, lounge-style furniture with a social and vibrant ambience and daily DJ ($495pp, which is cheap compared to other fam...

As you know, Michael McMichael (more about his new career later) and I normally only enter rallies where, unless your name is Nigel, you have red hair, bad breath and you are a serial killer, you are ­welcomed like a lost brother, sister or other.
