We could not be in Belgium at the time of the Antwerp exhibition as we had been called somewhere else (more on that in a separate post) but were very lucky that Pierre Stubbe, the talented photographer who had so kindly provided us with images of the Masstricht event last month, was on call (surely …

We love Paris in the Spring time – and you do too when it’s Retromobile
And so it came to pass that for reasons beyond our control we had to give this edition of Retromobile a miss. It was, quite literally at that, heartbreaking. Then again, it did not have to mean that Suixtil wouldn’t be there. Quite fortunately, our partners and friends from Historic Driver – you must know …

Guess what – the season now starts even earlier, thanks to Maastricht
We had heard about Interclassics several times before (and some of our partners have even attended the event) but we never quite took the full measure of the event ’till we visited the Brussels show (organized by the same team) last year and had the privilege of receiving a full gallery of pictures from – …

Our Xmas gift to you? A look back at the Vernasca Silver Flag, an event that has it all (and lots of Suixtil moments too)
We had to think long and hard about what we could bring to put under your Xmas tree – you, after all, already have it all… And then it came to us: we have not yet told you about one of the year’s best events – the Vernasca Silver Flag held in Piacenza (about half …

Monterrey Race Week – Noting compares…
And while we did not get a chance to make our way to the track this year, we believe the tour we managed, centered around the two events where your brand was exhibited (Automobilia Monterrey in Seaside and Retro Auto at the Spanish Bay Lodge at Pebble Beach) and the visit to the RM Sotheby’s …

Schloss Dyck von Trips memorial – a Concours & demo drive well worth the trip to Dusseldorf
It had been a few years since we had attended the Schloss Dyck event and we were surprised to see how much it has grown in the interim. The landscape has been reshuffled to accommodate a larger population of cars, a bigger line-up at the Concours (while the settings remain as grand as ever). The …

Spa Summer Classic – another great racing meet
And so it was that, on an extraordinarily hot week end of June, our friend Günter, yes, him again! – was at the track, again, to gather some glorious pictures – which he did. Spa is of course quite a track, a combination of a long history while its continued association with F1 also means …

Glorious Nürburgring Classic
Of course the track is not what it once was, of course the spirit that animates those exhibition races is not quite the excitement that once presided over the proceedings being held here. And yet, if anything, the cars have grown more even beautiful with the passing years and their owners ever more determined to …

77th Members’ Meeting at Goodwood – Paradise found, almost….
May is still young and it is quite daring, as previous editions have shown – with hail and all, to be organizing a large-scale racing outdoor event. But Lord March‘s team, undaunted, pulls out all the stops and organizes what is, somehow, like a Revival of the Spring (or, in music parlance and if Stravinsky …

The Gentleman Racer likes our Regularity gloves
Our friend Michael from The Gentleman Racer is a man in high-demand, constantly moving between tracks, test drives and varied travel adventures and we love keeping track with him vicariously through his weekly newsletter that also includes a best-off of what’s happening in the car universe (you might want consider signing up too). It was …
