Luft GB

Luftgekühlt has become more than just a word over the last 5 years or so. Translated from the German as ‘air-cooled’ the trademark is now, in the right circles, as synonymous with air-cooled Porsches as the name Porsche itself. The classic car ‘scene’ (I hate that word but stick with me) can be a stuffy […]

Silverstone Classic 2018

I tend to start most posts with a nod to the weather, usually poor, that I encounter on my jaunts to different motoring events. The idea that as a nation we’re obsessed with the weather may have some truth but with such unpredictability you can excuse us for being bemused when the weather fails to […]

Classic Sports Car Club

This weekends sees another round of the Classic Sports Car Club (CSCC) so it’s about time I uploaded the best shots from the round at Snetterton a few weeks ago. I say a few but it was only a month ago at the beginning of April. Although you wouldn’t think it looking at the photos, […]

CSCC Brands Hatch – with added darkness

November, dark wet cold. Yes I know its April but I’ve had a crazy few months. If you follow me on Instagram and Facebook you would have seen a lot of these already. So I’ve had time to edit, just not found the time to post on here. Where was I….. Yes dark, wet cold […]

Porsche Classics at the Castle

Once again Hedingham Castle was the perfect venue for Porsche Club Great Britain to host their Classics at the Castle event. With the theme of this years event focusing on S models through the range there was plenty of mouth watering examples on display. A line up of 911 S models through the years with […]

Spirit of Munro

I was lucky enough to see the Spirit of Munro in person. A stunning tribute to land speed record legend Burt Munro and his Munro Special, famous for breaking the under 1000cc speed record at Bonneville in the late 60s. The culmination of years of progress documented in the film ‘The Worlds Fastest Indian’. A […]

Bitter Sweet

Its a strange predicament, as the title suggests, bitter sweet. Photography is about capturing moments, recording history. The right place right time scenario occasionally presents itself and it should be grasped with caution. We had just arrived at Brands Hatch for a Sunday of the Historic Sports Car Club’s Legends of Brands Hatch Superprix. The Guards […]

WPS Website

OK so, sorry I’ve been off the radar for the last couple of weeks, a house move culminating in little or no broadband or phone signal led to a moment of peace in my life which you so rarely find nowadays. It was quite refreshing really, try it, switch your phone off for a couple of […]

The Kingshead Klassik

The Kings Head Klassik There’s something special about a first event, especially when your hosts are the Kings. With a wealth of experience, knowledge and contacts Ritchie, Angela and their Karmann Konnection team worked hard throughout the day to fulfill their promise of a ‘grass roots’ event. The location of the picturesque village of Bradwell […]

Snetterton June 2016 HSCC Meeting

New project on my automotive project page of a fantastically sunny day at Snetterton, no I’m serious. Actual sun at Snetterton, uh-huh.
