For Sale – Alfa Romeo GTV6

For Sale – Alfa Romeo GTV6

The churn begins once again. I put my Alfa Romeo GTV6 up for sale on carsales.com.au on Monday. I wasn’t planning to sell just yet, but I met a guy at the Classics On The Beach event a week earlier and he was looking to buy a GTV6. That got me thinking ‘there’s no time(…)

Future stuff

I write mostly about cars, but this is still a personal blog. Excuse me while I think out loud, sort of. I alluded to it in my previous post here: the abrupt death last week of my Dutch Saab mate, Nic Schellekens, has really rocked my puny little world. Nic was 52. My Dad was(…)

Spyker B6 Venator – Wow Factor 10!

Holy schmozzoli. Victor Muller’s done it! I thought the first rendering we saw of the new Spyker B6 Venator Concept looked pretty nice. Now that we can see the car in the metal at the Geneva show, it looks like the real deal. It’s been built, it’s intended for production next year and most importantly,(…)
