Despite their prevalence, only a tiny fraction of rare earth magnets are recycled from discarded electronics, but a new project involving Bentley Motors is intended to steer this trend back in the right direction.

Bentley is 40,000 man-hours into its painstaking reverse-engineered, laser-scanned copy of the 1929 Bentley Blower, and has just announced the completion of "car zero" – the master prototype from which 12 "Continuation Series" cars will be built.

In the midst of a global pandemic the success of Gooding & Company’s “Passion of a Lifetime” auction on the weekend seems like a miracle. Eight cars topped US$1 million and $45,231,210.76 was realized in just 90 minutes … at just over $500,000 a minute.

The Bentley Blower Continuation Series is a bizarre project, a laser-scanned recreation of a supercharged 1929 race car that changed the course of history for this British automaker. Parts are coming in, and Bentley is building the first prototype.

Bentley dips its toes back in the coachbuilding waters, tasking its Mulliner division with building custom vehicle bodies. The new Bacalar is the first fruit of Mulliner's labor, a roofless barchetta with concept-inspired looks and W12 power.

Motorclassica once again showcased a dazzling array of collectible cars and motorcycles last weekend at the fittingly splendid venue of the Royal Exhibition Building.

Sir Tim Birkin's Bentley Blower never won a race, but it was a heck of a car and an even better story. Now, Bentley's building 12 new 1929 Blowers.

Bentley triumphed in its centenary year, with a 1931 Bentley 8 Litre Gurney Nutting Sports Tourer taking out the Best of Show award.

The Monterey Car Week auctions left the collector car world in a state of shock. Sales totals were expected to be similar to 2018 when 850 cars sold for US$370 million but when the hammer fell for the final time in Monterey, just 770 cars had fetched $245 million – a shortfall of 80 cars and $125 million, or 34 percent down. Here's a car-by-car glance.

Bentley has recreated an important car design from its past that was lost during the outbreak of WW2. The 1939 Bentley Corniche provides a crucial link in the history of Bentley's most important models, connecting the fabled Embiricos 4¼ Litre and R Type Continental.

Bentley celebrates its 100th birthday in grand fashion, taking a look at what ultra-luxury will mean in the year 2035 – and gettin' weird with it. The EXP 100 GT combines artificial intelligence with a 435-mile (700-km) electric drive and rare premium materials like 5,000-year-old river wood.

The 2019 Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille ​was a triumph in many ways, most importantly in the turnout of exclusive automobiles from 16 manufacturers including significant debutant models. For McLaren it was doubly so, as its new​ Speedtail took out "Best in Show."
