I'm utterly fascinated by history. The intrigue of times past has had me in a chokehold since, well, ever since I can remember.

When Autocar decided to digitise its then 125-year archive in 2020, I naturally flung myself into the project. It was more trouble than we ever imagined, but now we have an invaluable and unique resource for academics and enthusiasts alike: the entire history of the car, documented as it happened, week by week.
