@tony-wawryk another treat from your side, keep’m coming.
Not that it would ever be option for me, but should I choose between the Maserati Ghibli and the Espada, the Ghibli would be the one for me.

Do you […]

@tony-wawryk I’ll let you know if suddenly should find myself in the Oxford area.
Oxford has always been high on my “go-to-wish-list, but Goodwood Rivival 2019 or Hursley (work related) will be more likely, […]

@anders-bilidt Trust me, driving a Opel GT gets you a fair amount of grief from the same bunch of owners of mainly Italian and British classics, and I can’t help finding it a tad “jersey shore-ish” !

One of my […]

@tony-wawryk Luckily it’s ok to disagree ;-). Regarding the brakes, I recall that the
problem was solved by removing the brake servo, and adding large brakes, which indeed did take care of the brake lock up […]

@tony-wawryk, engineer or not, I give you that styling and performance counts for a lot, but the ability to brake is a performance I value quite high, and here the Beta (also) fails by a mile…- so to speak […]

@claus-ebberfeld

Thanks a bunch for a great article. I’m gobsmacked how well that eggplant color suits the Porsche 356.

Haven’t been to any car shows this year, but in connection with the Goodwood Rivival I […]

@anders-bilidt , I would like to donate a kidney for eg. a Lancia Fulivia Coupe (HF), but shape and color can not stand alone IMHO.

But in addition, I’m really struggling to understand why cars that are […]

@tony-wawryk & Mr. Bildt, like many I hold classic Lancias in high regard, but with all due respect, when it comes to the Lanacia Beta I would rather set fire to myself than praise it, even in the slightest […]

@tony-wawryk, No we where not exactly arriving in style, and suddenly not the way we had planned. Parking between a SS Jaguar100 (from Germany) and a newer
Aston Martin was a painful affair, but at least we […]

@tony-wawryk Thanks for the reminder, but I can assure you that I have already read your e-type-kind-of weekend article (with great pleasure, by the way).

One of my best friends have a E-type roadster (type 1) […]

Tony,

Today’s NEC part 2 article nearly washed away all the uncanny memories about my
fathers Princess experience, great stuff !

I have a soft spot for the Triumph Dolomite Sprint, and at one time I came […]

Tony,

Thanks a bunch for this fantastic article covering the British part of NEC, I can hardly wait for part2.

My late father where persuaded by friends from the Nellemann family (DK importer of British […]

Gents,

I’m not much of a Jap-fan, but Claus you really got my attention here, and I have to agree with @anders-bilidt once more. The X-1R it not beautiful in a classic sense, but boy it’s cool, and it just […]

@anders-bilidt, You could easily have a point, and it wouldn’t be the first time a nearly topless rarity plays tricks with my mind ;-))

@dave-leadbetter, I’m quite sure the outcome will be just as nasty whether […]

Anders, I concur in every word, but what about the in between semi convertible targa models like eg. Ferrari Dino 246 GTS ? Does they combines the best from both worlds, or are many targa versions just to odd / […]
