Most of us are guilty of some sorts of snobbery from time to time. It is often a refinement of the (mis)information we receive at our parents’ and guardians’ feet, as they attempt to choose our chums, dress us according […]

It’s often the case with us car enthusiasts, that the vehicles we love are those we experienced as children. Today is my eldest offspring, Honor’s, 25th birthday, which throws my mind back to the first cars that she would have […]

The imminent second Manor Park Classics auction got me thinking about my admittedly scant past action on various sales floors in the past. The late 2000s saw me with something of a career change, as Technical Editor of Practical Classics […]

For me, a huge part of the joy of old vehicles are the sounds that they make. This is something that appears to be true for many fans of all types of motor vehicles, what with the burgeoning exhaust note […]

I well remember while at college in the very early 1980s doodling on the inside covers of my lever arch work folders. The doodles were often deliciously cruel caricatures of my fellow classmates (I too was on the receiving end […]
