Recommended reading - best of the bloggers

Motoring bloggers have evolved as a whole new sector of the automotive press in the past few years.  There are plenty of us and most work full time and write in the evenings and weekends.

Together we are proving to be a real threat to the establishment, and the manufacturers are taking us seriously.  There is a wonderful variety of writing out there from a wide range of bloggers - none of whom have an advertising budget but most of who are masters of social media.

Here's my pick of the recent articles produced by the bloggers.
