I love those. John Barker built a really nice one back in his Evo magazine days.

Those were peak evo days. Dickie Meaden's Caterham didn't last as long as John's Capri if I remember correctly. Probably still got those mags up in the loft.

More VW from San Clemente

Someone broke off the fronts and backs of those ones…. Either that or they’re suffering some sort of terrible condition such as automotive leprosy

The hot weather has brought the classic cars out. Here are a few I have spotted in the last couple of days on my jaunt around the country.

Wonderful cars. If I owned them, I would have a guard posted!

I love the stripe details on the seats. Someone has a much better eye for design and fashion than I. I wouldn't think of that in a million years. Looks great!

I do as well! Did a quick google search as I’m not extremely familiar with the Renault 5 Turbos but I believe the fabric may be original to the car as I’ve see many similar, if not identical, color combinations online. Still so cool though that leather with patterned fabric was offered from the factory.

That Instrument panel just screams 1980`s louder than any hair metal band.

Haha that it does @hen! The dash caught my eye immediately. I dig how the design of the instrument cluster appears asymmetrical at first glance but it’s actually mirrored along the centerline of the steering column.

Buttons, gauges and not a touchscreen or haptic pad in sight. Beautiful!
