As we all know Andrew, in the world of classic car projects, there’s a very, very thin – and largely transparent – line between brave and downright insane. ;-)

That said, while my Rochdale project has seen a […]

Despite being a Scandinavian myself, I must confess that this one was new to me. Never previously have I heard of the Troll…
But what a peculiar little construction – very intriguing!
Whether it would have […]

Oh dear, and here we go….

Argh…. okay, I’ll bite….
Niels, I’ve sent you an email.
Damn it!! Must sell cars – not buy them…

In many ways tempting mate.

But 1) right now I ought to be selling a few cars. Not buying more or spending more on the ones I have.
And 2) this particular 323ti is really way too good to be messing around […]

Oh dear!! Tony, I went through all of these considerations about two years ago as I was searching for a viable classic to replace my BMW E46 as my year-round daily car.
The search is always great fun, but it […]

Oh dear Niels V…. please don’t tempt me!!
A Californian for sale in Denmark you say?
I need to be downscaling my little collection right now – not adding to it!

Thx for your comments gents. :-)

@Jan, yes, it’s amusing I suppose that I’ve had a bit of a weakness for the 323ti Compact ever since they were first announced in ’97 and since then I’ve driven at least three […]

Oh dear, not an Imp!!
As soon as we enter the fabulous world of Imps, my ability to resist (which in the first place is hardly one of my strongest attributes) becomes hugely flawed. I quite simply love these […]

A big congrats from me too!
Claus, I must commend you in your commitment to the automotive educational journey you launched yourself into some 10 years ago. You’ve certainly gone through many very diverse c […]

Heh… amusingly @yrhmblhst, I seem to be entirely unable to produce an image of your chromed-wire-wheel-Aceca… ;-)

@Per Mølgaard Jørgensen, I’m glad you agree.

@yrhmblhst, I can assure you of one thing, that Aceca looks a whole lot better on black wires than it would on a set of blinged-up chromed wires!

Once I save up j […]

I too am not a big fan of chromed wire wheels. As Dave points out, they’re just not period-correct, and further to that, they’re also waaay too BLING for my taste. Just look at that Big Healey which Zack […]

While I’ve most certainly never been into classic cars for the investment side of things, I still find many of those prices in Tony’s article are rather intersting. Of course, while all who couldn’t give a toss […]

I’ll happily confess with you @yrhmblhst…
I too have dreamt / still dream of adding a cool little Skoda R110 to my garage inventory. Think I’ll have mine in orange thank you.
Or if I could find it’s […]

The ACA live auction starts shortly. Will be interesting to watch and while I’m currently not in a position to be bidding, I’ll certainly be watching this cool little French coupé with quite some interest. Such […]

Thanks Letitia for sharing your story. Your Bitter SC looks fabulous and it’s great to be able to follow its story. Happy motoring…

Those Jupiter’s are nothing if not quirky! But I like them…
And thx Niels V. for adding pics of the Sommer Jupiter Coupé. Being a Dane and quite the admirer of Ole Sommer, I personally feel it’s the best […]
