Chevrolet Tritation

I first saw a picture of this car on Dep-O’s facebook page a few weeks ago and just needed to know more. Well it was up for sale a few years back and was described as a one off build. And what a one off build, the base car was a 1980 Chevy Citation, but this wasn’t a simple cut the front down and remove a wheel affair.

Handmade Miniture V12

I know this has been round the internet for awhile but it is just epic, the amount of care, skill and dedication to create something that is truly stunning-

VW IRVW Futura

Debuted in 1989 as the car we'd be driving in the year 2000 by Volkswagen, it wasn’t that far off. Well about 10 years, bear with me. This was effectively a people carrier; it had an LCD screen to give the driver information, a 1.7ltr petrol engine that was a frugal as the conventional diesel due to its direct injection, catalytic convertor, 4 wheel steering, lane and hazard proximity sensors!!!!

Lamborghini Boxer Bike

Back in the 80’s Lamborghini were out to expand the brand after a shack part of their history. They had already expanded into off roaders with the LM002 and into speed boats with their V12 being offered to turn the propellers!!! However they weren’t finished there. Boxer Bikes were a French company synonymous with leading-edge racing bikes using the latest technologies and all hand built.

The Nurburgring Part 3: Taxi, second lap and home

 

An early start was needed on the Sunday, it was a open session on the track and due to it being my Birthday I had been bought a truly memorable experience by a few of my friends who were with me and my otherhalf who was not, a seat in one the BMW M5 Ring Taxi's. So after a nosey around the filling car park we met our driver and climbed into this 570bhp rear wheel drive monster.

The Nurburgring Part 2: Taking it all in

Saturday was a closed session on the track for the RCN Circuit Challenge and not wanting to miss the action we headed back to the viewing area at Brunnchen which unlike on Friday was much busier for this touring car series. We set up for some track side action with loads of locals, some of which had arrived for the day  looking at the BBQ's and beer!! We were not disappointed as a whole mix of cars drove by, from your basic Ring fare of BMW 3 series and 911's both new and old, too VW Golf's both MK1, 2's and 3's, VW Polo's, Vauxhall Nova's, Citroen AX's, Porsche 924/944/928's, Honda Civic, MGB GT's and even a Renault Alpine.

Datsun Sport 1000 (S211)

When you think of Datsun the terms “classic” and “rare” aren’t the first words to spring to mind. Well this car is certainly both. One of the Datsun's first true sports cars it was built in 1958 and was based on the 211 Sedan. Its 1ltr engine producing 37bhp may not have set the tarmac on light but its rarity more that makes up for it.
