Tony Wawryk commented on the post, Fiat X1/9 eller Porsche 914? 3 år, 5 måneder siden
In reply to: Claus Ebberfeld wrote a new post Fiat X1/9 eller Porsche 914? Spørgmålet kommer sig af, at begge modellers klubber var repræsenteret på Ret […] VisI like them both – though in each case, it would need to be the small bumper versions as shown above – and my 914 would ideally have Fuchs alloys. The FIAT is the prettier car, but I think the 914 is the better one, though I base this only on the opinions of others, as I have not driven either. Nevertheless, it would be my choice, and I’ll take it…[Læs mere]

In reply to: Claus Ebberfeld wrote a new post Retro Classics Stuttgart: Messer lever stadig! Selv i Tyskland har corona ikke fået […] Vis@claus – I did a bit of googling and found this – Historics auctioneers actually sold one back in 2017, for just £17,360 – which would make EUR 125k exceptionally ambitious no matter how good the work. There is some interesting background to P1800 convertibles in general in the lot details, specifically:-
“Volvo didn’t have any plans to build…[Læs mere]

In reply to: Claus Ebberfeld wrote a new post Retro Classics Stuttgart: Messer lever stadig! Selv i Tyskland har corona ikke fået […] VisLooks like a good event, Claus! Impressed by the Mazda Cosmo – I can’t remember ever seeing one in the metal. I also like the P1800 convertible, another car I have not seen before – I know that Volvo never made any, do you know who converted this one? Looks very stylish. Oh, and the yellow SLC – lovely!

In reply to: ViaRETRO wrote a new post Weekend Matiné Nr. 443 Kunstig patina og falsk fart. Alt var forkert, men […] VisI hadn’t heard of Moretti until I saw some at the Auto Italia Day at Brooklands back in May 2018 – indeed, that event was the subject of my first article for ViaRETRO International; you can read it here – https://viaretro.com/2018/05/brooklands-sparkles-with-italian-glamour/. I liked them straight away – especially the fabulous 2500SS Spyder that…[Læs mere]

Hi Anders, thank you my friend! Looking forward to checking out the Scandi site and to making the occasional contribution – hope to see you at a UK event again soon, maybe Hampton Court?

Hello Gitte, and thank you so much for the warm words and welcome! I’m looking forward to being an active member of Klub ViaRETRO and also hope that one day I’ll be able to attend one of the events in Denmark! I used to be in Copenhagen regularly on business some years ago, but it’s been a while since the last time I was there. I will also…[Læs mere]

In reply to: ViaRETRO wrote a new post Weekend Matiné Nr. 440 Kvalitet er relativt. Man møder så mange spændende mennesker på Ret […] Vis@claus – yes, cost of purchase is substantially less for a decent 130 than an E9 (although for a really good 130 the difference is less); the running costs however could soon close that gap, especially if any of the 130’s unique parts are required eg the lights. Still, there’s no question that it’s a fabulous car – I just think owning an E9, just…[Læs mere]

Man møder så mange spændende mennesker på Ret […] VisI’m a big fan of the 130 Coupé – it looks fabulous, though I would go for one with a leather interior rather than velour, and is not a car you see very often in the UK. Unfortunately, that’s also one of the drawbacks – spare parts are very hard to find and expensive when you do find them; according to Classic and Sportscar’s buyer’s guide to the…[Læs mere]

Some of you might know me from the international version of ViaRETRO, which has sadly come to an end. I have now joined the Danish site, which despite the occasionally interesting translation that my laptop gives me from the original Danish, I can mostly make sense of :-).
I think the easiest way for me to introduce myself and my current…[Læs mere] -

A wonderful report from the Hampton Court show. Please let us have more of the good UK stuff on the Danish ViaRETRO

Ja tak!

Thanks for a very well presented report, read with enthusiasm, like having been there due to the very nice pictures too….

Mange tak for jeres feedback på vores lille Engelsk-Artikel-Eksperiment.
I kan være helt rolige for at den danske ViaRETRO side alle dage vil forblive hovedsagligt dansk, men når der er engelske artikler med en udpræget international karakter, som bør kunne værdsættes af vor danske læsere, så vil vi dele dem her på den danske side også.

audi coupe quattro ,porsche 924 og 924 carrera gt i samme billedserie. så fik jeg lige stillet min sult efter sauerkraut i dag; tak. i øvrigt en imponerende spændvidde til dette “træf” og næsten ingen 911ere
Hi Tony
Thanks for the view on the Spanish site a good mixture of cars. I live part time in Spain around Tarragona and for many year try to get clever on the classic there and its mostly Seat 500/600 I see in Abarth trim.
Lots of the youngtimers are still in use on coventry side like Panda and Renault 4 Citroen among others
The history of Spain with Franco on the post for many year also brougth lot of america cars from the 40/50 into the coventry and you can find many in Spanish barns.
If you there this saturday and have time, you can go to Sitges south of Barcelona to this event.

Jeg har altid syntes, at en Fiat 850 Sports Coupé var og er en meg fiks og flot lille coupé. Imponerende at Fiat kunne få en då lille bil til at se så smart ud.
Men hvordan var den mon at køre i?
Fin lille SEAT – den som Claus tidligere skrev om med den sorte næse – lidt på samme vis som på en Lancia Beta Montecarlo;
Great article, great photoes.
Please post more, when you have more to tell.
Glad you all like the piece, thank you for your kind words.
@keld, while I will still be in Spain next weekend, I am not going to be able to go to Sitges this time, unfortunately.
@kai, I plan to write about the Goodwood Members Meeting next month.
Hello Tony,
Nice with a fremhæver report from an Englishman in Spain.
When I was a kid, my father bought his second Fiat 127 in the mid seventies. Only difference from the first one was the Seat logos on the front fenders. It was build on the Seat factory in Spain, but still branded and sold as a Fiat
@tony-waywryk, you certainly found some great matches: Capri/Corroda, Ford Probe/Renault Fuego, Porsche 924/Corvette C3 – simply brilliant!
