Really? Is the situation quite that advanced? Apparently so, as I found myself suddenly preferring the Cortina Mk2 over the evergreen and ultra-classic Mk1.
I found myself stood in front of a Cortina Mk2 last […]

Wow, three shades of brown/beige tones on a Lotus Elan Sprint FHC: Truly great colours for the little sports car. And a brown Dolomite Sprint would do it for me as well. Must have brown car!
And a Sabre Six? […]

I absolutely agree on everything regarding the style, spirit and heritage aspects. And the colour combination on this one is just great. I’ve only driven its Rolls-Royce equivalent and that was a […]

@yrhmblhst , that seems simple, but I guess they would be perfectly OK for your garden trailer and that might even be exactly what they were designed for in the first place. And the garden trailers need tyres too. […]

And I’m not talking from a technical aspect here, but from a moral one: Which makes it a much more difficult question to answer.
The thing is, I am furious. Or at least annoyed. Some readers may recall that a […]

Any day, in fact!
I feel the coats of the two gentlemen are worthy of an appreciative nod as well.
Love the Sixties!

Claus Ebberfeld commented on the post, The Most Super of SuperSaloons 8 years, 3 months ago
I agree that the rarity factor must be up there to define a real supersaloon. The Monteverdi 375 that Tony nominated will probably be at the absolute top of my list, but that’s probably because I have a weak spot […]

Admitted, this is sex for geeks – but then, they should be entitled to some to: So today ViaRETRO is going to be all about the sexiest of air intakes – which was in fact once widely used and equally pop […]

Forgot that RS, @anders-bilidt – but really: As I recall it the RS had no real go anyway, so I think I would stick to a humbler Civic. Remember the Generation 2 wagon from a few weeks ago? I actually thought hard […]

Great idea to photograph the Morgan from behind, I agree. But the colour is supercool and later versions did correct the bugeyed look. I’d take a real classic over an Aero 8 any day, but I do understand their […]

Great find, Anders! Always loved this and the similar and yet very different Honda Beat.
Maybe something for me to return in – when I’ve handed the RX7 over to you in July? A bit tedious on the way up from […]

As if it were not enough to drift through dreams centered around the highly hypothetical choices between Urraco and 308GT4, Mexico and Jarama, 911 and 356… I have another character defect: Occasionally, I fall […]

For several years Triumph built sportscars with highly reliable engines, which shared their basic construction with the engines used in the Ferguson tractor. But towards the end of the Fifties, they manufactured a […]

Claus Ebberfeld commented on the post, What are the best alternatives to the 911? 8 years, 4 months ago
Current status is that he is looking into – another Porsche! The 968, to be more specific. Far too new for my tastes, but a brilliant car, of course. And it’s his money so I don’t say anything :-).
@yrhmblhst, […]

@anders-bilidt , he has in fact in his earlier life owned TWO Alfa Romeo GTV6’s. And, I should add, will probably never go back: When he converted to the 911 he could barely contain himself in the revelation of […]

It’s no secret that I’m a huge admirer of the Porsche 911. There ARE a few worthy alternatives, though.
I started contemplating this very serious subject as I learnt that a good friend has now become Porsche […]

And no doubt inspiration for several others too: The modern hatchback owes a lot of its basic architecture to this Pininfarina prototype.

What’s so wrong about old wine on new bottles? I love old wine.
I vaguely recall the Virage being presented in its Vantage edition in Birmingham, way back in 1992. The ordinary Virage was already five years old, […]
