@claus-ebberfeld, uhmmm… but it’s a Volvo… so it doesn’t have faults – ever… ;-)

Sigh of relief…. ;-)

Whoooaar… love the Chevette HSR’s, Sunbeam Lotus, Ascona 400’s and Manta 400’s!! Definitely the best era of rallying in my opinion.
Though, is that rally Imp maybe Rosemary Smith’s? If so, veeeery cool as […]

With the pressure of Dave’s number plate article hanging over me, I had to start somewhere. New period plates for my Scimitar have just been delivered by courier. I went for white and yellow with raised and […]

Thx Gents – I’m glad you all enjoyed the article.
Much as I have always loved classic BMW’s, I’ve recently been quite set upon expanding my current garage with more non-Bavarian goodies. But I must confess, if I […]

Interesting….
So on that note – at least according to our respected German, number-crunching friends – my 20 year old Volvo C70 T5 is now a fully-fledged classic car. Or at the very least, an enthusiast car. […]

@yrhmblhst, certainly a very insightful and interesting perspective on the sad closure of SAAB. If nothing else, you have just achieved instilling a deep hatred for GM within me…

Hmmmm… I seem to be very much on my own here, but I would be proud to include this two-tone 280ZX into my garage, and I’m sure I would enjoy every drive too – with Duran Duran blasting from the tape deck… ;-)

@tony-wawryk, normally I would always advise anyone seeking a second classic car for their garage to aim for diversity. In other words, not the same marque as the classic you already own. Maybe not even a […]

@niels-v, now that sounds like a much better solution to me… :-)

@niels-v,
I do genuinely feel your pain. As you know, I too am a massive advocate for driving our classics on every given occasion – or for that matter, with out any occasion at all.
But even so, don’t make the […]

I would happily invite the eighties back if we could!
That blonde in jumpsuit and oversized sunglasses can come too… ;-)
Oh, and so can the 280ZX. @yrhmblhst, of course the 240Z was purer in every […]

What a stunningly beautiful BMW. Condition and history seems quite amazing on this one. So much so that I could quite easily forgive it having only the small 2.5-litre M30 engine.

But more than anything, it’s […]

Yup, I’m one of those who still experiences severe distress whenever I think of the sad demise of SAAB. Such a loss for the automotive world. It says a lot about modern cars in general, that there simply wasn’t […]

Like you @claus-ebberfeld, I too rather like the big SEC. Very elegant for such a vast coupé. Sacco was indeed a talented man. Yet, I find myself torn when it comes to this AMG. I tend to like the period […]

Ladies and Gentlemen, mark this day in the history books, as this was the first – and probably last – time Tony Wawryk admitted to liking a brown classic!!! :-D
Personally, I’m astonished…

I’m sad to learn […]

@brucky, as a SE6a owner myself, I can only agree about them being one of the best kept secrets in the classic car scene. Fabulously capable GT’s…
But I do admire the SE4 as well. Should you stumble across a […]
