CLASSICAR GARAGE NEWSLETTER 162, 23 DECEMBER 2020 |
|
|
Dear classic car enthusiast,
A year ago, no one could have imagined that 2020 would make history in this way. In this last week of the year, on the doorstep of 2021, we can look forward to a wonderful new year in which the social occasions (which we have learned to appreciate extra due to the circumstances) will gradually start up again. With this in mind, I wish you, also on behalf of our garages, a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
Today I present nine newly arrived classic cars that I have tested and photographed for you in the last weeks. This time the driving experiences were extremely varied from spartan pre-war, through rough American V8 violence of the 1960s, to refined German luxury from the 1980s. Amidst these I present two British ‘gents’ made by Bentley and Bristol who know how to combine luxury and brawn!
From this month onwards, the classic sales and workshop of Imparts have become a separate activity under the name "Classic Open". The "Imparts" brand is once again used exclusively for the import and sale of parts for (British) classic cars. In the showroom and workshop of "Classic Open" you can go for purchase, sale, and service for all classic car brands.
"Enjoy the Ride!"
With best regards,
Marc Vorgers. N.B. Dear reader, you receive our newsletter because you have actively subscribed to it,
