The Bentley Bentayga's Fingerprint Security Box Doesn't Look Like It Fits Anything
The Bentley Bentayga's Fingerprint Security Box Doesn't Look Like It Fits Anything-April 2024

For all you owners out there, Mulliner can now fit a bio-metric security storage box in your car. To be fair, it’s a very cool idea because, as you know, I love . It really sounds like some science fiction stuff.

The fingerprint sensor will open the door to a “high pressure, die-cast aluminum secure stowage unit,” according to a company press release. It can be programmed to recognize multiple fingerprints and honestly would probably be more convenient than locking and unlocking the glove box every single time you want to use it.

Here’s the thing, though: It looks tiny! Bentley didn’t provide any dimensions for the storage unit, but these are some press photos showing a man putting his watch in there for safekeeping. It doesn’t look like there’s room for much else.

Anyway. What is something that small that I couldn’t be bothered to carry on my person as well? A wallet? No, you shouldn’t really go anywhere without your wallet. A cell phone? You shouldn’t really go anywhere without that, either. Sunglasses? If you need to hide your sunglasses as a Bentayga owner, then maybe you need to re-evaluate your priorities.

Maybe as a place to keep your car-specific TomTom, Garmin or iPod, the box makes sense. Oh wait! Nobody has any of that stuff anymore, especially not someone with a Bentley. The Bentayga has its own navigation system and your phone has all your music on it now.

What is this box actually for? SOMEONE TELL ME. Is it... is it for drugs?

I have driven the Bentley Bentayga. It is good and fast and expensive, covered in acres of leather…

I Guess A Convertible F-150 Is Basically A New Bronco
The desperation for is running dangerously unchecked. Enthusiasts are huddled around rumor scraps and wacky Photoshop renders while body shops are committing unspeakable acts of perversion to bring the Bronco back.

I Was Not Prepared For The Brutality Of A Corvette-Powered Land Rover Defender
The is an archaic, slab-sided agricultural work truck. Yet people are paying $200,000 for custom versions with extra layers of leather inside and outrageously overpowered engines. I’ve driven a lot of steroidal trucks, but East Coast Defender’s Chevy V8-swapped Land Rover was definitely one of the most... dramatic. For the...

So, here’s a little tip for drivers of 4x4 pickups with lift kits and big tires: while your trucks are rugged and capable of traversing all sorts of terrain, they’re still land vehicles. Well, unless they’ve been really extensively modified. That’s why when there’s warnings about surf reaching 27 feet...
