Introduced in 1968 the BMW 2002 followed on from the European touring car success of the 60s with the 1602. The 2002 was put into production after BMW decided to introduce a larger displacement engine which was able to generate more power and performance in an attempt to become the market leader in punchy 4-seater usable coupés. Although the 2002 was initially fitted with carburettors, though the ...

Porsche specialist Paul Stephens has built a very limited number of Autoart Retro Touring models, the aim being to combine the pure and simple elegance of the original design with the performance, reliability, everyday usability and creature comforts of the 1990’s evolution of the 911. The 964 series model is obviously the best basis for this backdate, arguably the best built 911 version of all. ...

This remarkable early Elise covered only 1, 400 dry miles in the hands of one family who owned it from new until 1999. It has clearly been carefully driven and well looked after and stored during these 22 years as it was in virtually as new and completely original condition when we bought the car in early 2021.

The car was ordered new in October 1998 from long established Lotus dealer ...

The ultimate hot hatch? – quite possibly. I remember so clearly the first time I drove one of these back in the period, my everyday Golf GTi at the time was good but the 1. 9 was in a different league with so much verve, style, speed and great character. To this day I’m not sure it has been bettered and of course now legislation means we are unlikely to see anything like this again.

Unfortunately ...

In 1984 the VFR1000R was the fastest motorcycle in the world with a top speed of 150 mph and no wonder, the R model being the high-performance member of the VF1000 family with a series of modifications bringing it close to the Honda FWS race bike which was competing in the Daytona 200 and AMA class. The most famous modification made to the V4 in the R model was the addition of gear driven camshafts ...

An excellent and completely original example of the rare and desirable six speed manual version of the revered late production GTS model. These really have come into their own in recent years and very much feel the sweet spot of 911 versions with normal aspiration, manual box and super communicative hydraulic steering. Could this be the last real 911?

Finished in Basalt Black with Alcantara ...

The E500 LTD was, as the name suggests, a limited edition special final version that marked the end of production for the now legendary E500 model. Launched in 1990 the E500 or 500E, as it was then known, followed the Mercedes tradition of shoehorning a very powerful engine into a sedate looking saloon body and hence creating a very rapid yet understated and eminently usable performance car. This ...
