Claus Ebberfeld commented on the post, Status on a Keeper: Five Years With My Scimitar GTE 6 years, 5 months ago
I can’t really give you that information, @Dave Leadbetter: Most of the time I’m undercover and now realizing showing that photo was probably not a good idea. I did ask Sonny Crockett first, though.
But yeah, […]

It was fourth time lucky with my Scimitar and my enthusiasm hasn’t diminished since.
My trusty 1978 Reliant Scimitar GTE is the only car in my garage which I refer to as a “keeper”. I acquired it in 2014 and […]

The first and last time Stirling Moss could possibly be accused of being slow, was on his way off the race track we call life.
Sir Stirling Moss was quite simply one of the greatest natural talents behind a […]

Certainly a car that works in many colours. Baby blue or light green would be my choices in the non-metallic department, but golden brown metallic….yes, please!

I have to agree with all of you, but what a lovely car it is, though. I could not wish for better colours and as said the estimate gives you a lot of stylish car for the money.
Personally I’d probably go for […]

Sometimes you don’t even have to DRIVE your classic to enjoy – the photo below is from my yard. The arrival of spring is not as advanced as it appears in England, but the little pink flowers are surely on their […]

Claus Ebberfeld commented on the post, 200 km/h is fast – and that's official! 6 years, 6 months ago
Again I absolutely agree, @anders: Exhilarating drives have nothing to do with the pure speed achieved.
Personally I’ve never had more intensive drives than when racing my old Triumph Spitfire historic race […]

@tony, the 996 is a prime example of what I mean: There seems to have formed a widespread understanding of the “fact” that while the Turbo is fast the naturally aspirated ones are not. That’s ridiculous! You could […]

Nahh, I think I’d rather go for a screamer.
Sorry, could not help myself! (giggle!)

Wait, @rune, spring is coming and so are photos and a story.
@peter, no SUV should be allowed to do more than 200. In fact I’d say couple that with a law that offroad capable cars should do, say, a minimum of […]

Claus Ebberfeld commented on the post, Classic Rivals: Ford Cortina and Sierra vs Vauxhall Cavalier 6 years, 6 months ago
I would have said I’d go for the three-door estate of the Ascona – but then recalled that it was BEFORE Opels became Vauxhalls and the Ascona became the Cavalier. This is what I mean: […]

I love that jacket! And the wheels. Oh, and pretty cool car too.

Claus Ebberfeld wrote a new post 6 years, 6 months ago
I have added another car to my garage which happens to have a top speed of just over 280 km/h. Which some seem to think is not fast. Are they mad?!!?
In fact I’m almost embarrassed to admit it, because I’ve […]

@Anders, I would imagine that last country could be the United States as automobiles is such a huge part of their self.
But generally I am with @niels Jonassen on this one: The EV-movement is @chv on this one: […]

I love the car as such. And obviously any Maserati is better than no Maserati.
But: “We are advised that all components (apart from clips, fixings etcs) are present”. Etcs is not exactly calming in this […]

That Cortina, @zack…
…but besides that I am glad to hear the show has apparantly somewhat changed character: Having attended two former editions at the Excel I hope they have sorted out the terrible food too!

On a more serious note I think the future for our hobby lies in what Dave already touches upon: “In the end it’ll probably be a change in social attitudes that will shut us down.”
For some years now I have […]

I can only wonder too, @yrhmblsht – I chose it to show the depth that was on offer there.
And I agree on the little Jensen: Had I not been well stocked up on cars for the Summer already this one could very […]
