Welcome to The Cars Daily
At The Cars Daily, cars are more than just machines. They’re passion, innovation, and a whole culture rolling down the road on four wheels.
What drives us? Simple: we give UK car enthusiasts the stories, advice, and news they want—everything from breaking industry updates to deep-dive reviews, motorsport highlights, EV breakthroughs, and the latest from car culture.
It all started with Shawn Miller back in 2020. He launched this platform as Modified Rides, just a personal project powered by curiosity, hands-on tinkering, and a genuine love for tuning cars. Pretty soon, it wasn’t just Shawn writing for himself anymore. Readers who shared that obsession for performance upgrades, creative car mods, and the wild side of automotive life found a home here. Back then, we focused on honest reviews of modified cars, DIY guides, and stories about the people behind the builds. Shawn didn’t just want a blog—he wanted a real destination for car lovers to find expertise, excitement, and practical advice all under one roof.
As time went on, we grew—naturally. The content stretched beyond tuning. Suddenly, we were covering mainstream car news, model launches, motorsport, EV trends, and smart ownership advice. Our audience grew, and so did our vision. It was time for a change. On January 29th, 2026, Modified Rides officially became The Cars Daily. The new name marked a fresh start, but also a bigger promise: we’d be the UK’s go-to spot for everything automotive—from hypercars and performance beasts to off-roaders and the electric revolution that’s changing the game.
