You want to go over-landing, but you want the luxury of a 5-star hotel? This Culinan could be just the ticket.

Car of the week 💰

I can’t say I’ve ever heard of this before, it’s an Aspark Owl, a Japanese hypercar that will cost you an eye-watering £3m. However, for that money you get performance that will keep your eyes watering, 0-60 in under 2 seconds due to its 1,900bhp electric powerplant and lightweight carbon fibre body. There will only be 50 produced so be quick!

This is a fascinating tour of Koenigsegg’s factory in Sweden, exploring some of their latest developments, and the continuous improvement they make to existing models.

Worth a visit 🚘

I visited Hexagon Classics recently, which is a car dealership in North London that has an incredible range of vehicles and you’re allowed to wander around more like it’s a museum. We didn’t have time to stick around, but they also have a pizza restaurant inside the showroom, so you can sit with with a pizza and a beer surrounded by priceless classics - well worth it.

This is a Renault 12, I can’t say I’m familiar with it. An AI summary of this model states “known for its conventional front-wheel-drive layout, comfortable ride, and availability as a saloon or estate” - as it’s “known for” being conventional, it’s probably fair to say it’s not really known for anything. I understand it was popular in Romania, being sold as a Dacia 1300. Who knew. If you’re tempted by its absolute mediocracy, then you can get yourself one from between £2,000 - £45,000 here.
