ts a nice ckeeky number to have on your line-up and a big price adds a bit of kudos to the forecourt. I doubt an RSR replica adds much kudos to Legends' forecourt, and its not a big price compared to their usual line-up of historic race cars They're also advertising the only TVR Speed 12 roadcar bu...

Good news guys - I finally have in front of me another batch of knobs. The light/dark stripes are different to last time meaning the knobs are darker overall than the first lot. They look fantastic.

The appeal of old-skool racing for me is the relative lack of grip and therefore seeing cars moving around more. Although that 997/Vette dice had drama (even if it got a bit BTCC at the end), the cars all look too planted most of the time and you don't get the same sense of drivers wrestling them ro...

I'm sorry, but modern sportscars like the Audis etc do absolutely nothing for me at all. But that's just me. I know they're technically astounding but there's just something way too clinical about them. Welded tubes and mechanical fuel-injection light my fire, while carbon composites and modern ele...

Lancai Fulvia Coupe (1600 HF Lusso if you can find a good one) +1 A friend had a scruffy Fulvia as a student, planning to undertake a rolling restoration.

almost bought one a couple of years ago & test drove quite a few. Ultimately I found them boring & lacking that sparkle that 911's have.

I want to do this too.
$95 for the left one and "you might need to hit it with a hammer" to get it to fit :shock:
