ClassicarGarage Newsletter 57, May 10 2011



Dear classic car enthusiast,

April 2011 was a month never to forget. Yours truly married on April 1 and successively enjoyed a beautiful honeymoon in Lisbon. Returning back to the Netherlands we were given a sunbath of four weeks in which open top classic car driving was a sheer pleasure.
Hardly recovered from all adventures eighteen new arrived classic cars were tested and photographed. Today we present 14 cars for sale, the others have already been sold.
It starts with a beautiful and very original Mercedes-Benz 190 SL which defends the honours of this German factory amidst the other cars from the land of British Racing Green.
Superb Austin Healey's, a delightful Austin Seven Pearl, Triumph TR 3a, MG TD, Jaguar XJ 6, an impressive Bentley Special and an exclusive Aston Martin DB 6 Vantage.
While you are reading this yours truly is preparing for a visit to the Mille Miglia in Italy. On Wednesday May 11 the first Mille Miglia vintage car auction will be attended. On Thursday May 12 all around 300 participating Mille Miglia cars will be admired in the picturesque city centre of Brescia. Thursday evening the start of the race/rally will take place.
After my return I hope to surprise you with one ore more HD video reportages of this fantastic event. Visit the ClassicarGarage Youtube channel to view
Mille Miglia videoclips made during the 2010 edition.
 
Sincerely,
 
Marc Vorgers
