Motoring journalists have it easy, right? A life of fast cars, fine food and exotic locations. Maybe. But first you've got to get yourself established. From time to time I'll cover the things I'm doing to try to boost my career. The rest of the time I'll be doing what I love, which is writing about cars.

Watching Top Gear
I'm afraid I can't resist the charms of BBC television's Top Gear. Today they are testing the Dodge Challenger, which I have a massive soft spot for and seeing one on the move on the small screen just makes it look even more appealing. Actually seeing it is only half the story, hearing it is even bigger. It makes me wonder how the Challenger drives and how it would compare to the Ford Mustang. The 'stang was crude but both effective and entertaining but it did have competition suspension and incredible, racing brakes, not to mention a supercharged engine. Maybe I should drive one of the racing tuned Challengers that Chrysler offers in the USA only to people with racing licenses.
