100% Practical

I owned this for 3 years and my wife and I drove it across Europe, camped in a tent on the roof, hauled logs for our boiler, used it as a bird hide, cooked on the built in table, carried a toilet in the back. It’s a go anywhere do anything vehicle. Great

Beautiful car....with the kid free option package eliminating the back seat access.

It's an interesting era with "tail dragger" type stance, some with continental kits on the back. This was early to mid 60s. Then some of the late 60s hot car, scat pack, cars all had higher back ends than the tail draggers of the previous years. The trend

I would only buy a GT3 variant.

If I were forced to return to the Porsche Welt, I would return to a GT3 vehicle, which have improved tremendously and have recently become a double-wishbone suspension car. A more gentlemanly GT3 variant is the "GT3 Touring" variant which eliminates the b

Nice machine!

Microfiber headliner too! Very important to have a nice headliner material. I can't get used to the "fishnet" material in my Tesla Model 3. My previous car had the nicer Alcantara headliner. The designer of the car used to frequent our website. Luc D. And

Thanks so much for joining in…

And a great photo journey, as always. I guess it will come down to a similar choice for me - do something with the Volvo or simply get another car that will produce more pleasure right out of the box. Let’s see what it will be 👍🏻🤷🏻‍♂️ That Jag does look n

I thought about that option quite a bit before unloading my Volvo XC Ocean Race

I bought this for its looks and off-road capabilities even though I secretly wanted this instead At this point I did bigger, better tires, drilled brake rotors, free-flowing air filter and a few other minor mods. But then the Jaguar fell into our driveway

Track use.

Being used to light cars and my friend telling me the Bentley had great handling for a 2200 kilo car I expected more to be honest. Anyway, handling was very good and the comfort out of this(my) world. That said as much as I love the looks and the whole pa

Over here they're cheap as well apparently.

This one being the V8 S was a lot more than a non S version. The main issue for Belgium (and other EU countries) are the ridiculous road tax thefts. Every time a car changes owner you must pay 'ransom', for this Bentley we're talking around 10.000 €, add

I especially like the V8S model. I didn't like the W12 nor the SPEED nearly as much.

The V8S model is the way to go here. The W12 and Speed models deliver power in a different way, weight is heavier. The V8 is also more free-revving. The V8S in the 2015/16/17 model year is probably my favorite Bentley. The current 2026 models are even eas

Courtesy car ... a decent one !

Just like Nicolas I had the opportunity to drive a special car this past week. As many of you know I'm not a big fan of heavy cars you will obviously understand why this time I had no issue with the weight in this case . 2200 kilos is double that of the A
