New but old: 2024 Morgan Plus Four's wooden frame merges with modernity
While most of the global automotive industry pushes forward to reach the newest and most advanced designs possible, Morgan is clinging to its heritage like a Maine deer tick in April (ask me how I know). The company recently announced the new Plus Four, an evolution of the decades-old design that retains its iconic underpinnings with a few modern enhancements.
Bird Flu Is Spreading in Alarming New Ways
Last Friday, a health alert from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention pinged its way across the inboxes of clinicians and state health departments all over the US. The message described how a dairy farm worker in Texas had contracted H5N1, the highly infectious strain of avian influenza, or bird flu, that’s currently circling worldwide. The dairy worker had caught the virus, apparently, from cattle.
Scrapyard Gem: 2011 Alfa Romeo Giulietta
Alfa Romeo first applied the Giulietta name to its cars in 1954, producing that legendary generation through 1965. The name was revived on a wild-looking sedan for the 1977-1985 period, just before Fiat bought the company, and then returned on a compact hatchback for the 2011 model year. Today's Junkyard Scrapyard Find is one of those first-year third-gen Giuliettas, found in a self-service yard in Yorkshire, England.

Scrapyard Gem: 2000 Honda HR-V
YORK, England — Honda began selling the Fit-based second-generation HR-V in the United States as a 2016 model, but we never saw its first-generation predecessor here. That boxier, shorter machine debuted in Japan as a 1998 model and went on sale in Europe for the 2000 model year. During my recent trip to the junkyards scrapyards of northern England (that's what they call them here) I found this first-year example at the U-Pull-It in York.
Scrapyard Gem: 2002 BMW 320td
YORK, England — BMW built compact three-door hatchback versions of the 3 Series for the E36 and E46 generations, and many of these cars were fitted with diesel engines during their 1993-2004 production run. However, only the gasoline-powered 1995-1998 318ti E36 version was ever sold new on our side of the Atlantic and the E46 version (which went into production as a 2001 model) won't be legal to import under federal law until 2026. That's no problem for this series, because your intrepid archeologist of discarded vehicles just got back from a trip to Great Britain and spotted this '02 3 Series Compact in a self-service scrapyard near York, England.
