MILITEM FERŌX500 comes in with a V8 and seats made from denim

May 26, 2022

The biggest problem with writing about cars these days is everything has been said. Every analogy has been used. And we ran out of metaphors. Automakers aren’t helping because they’ve become dull. Even when they create fun vehicles. Mind you, there’s a small Italian company called MILITEM that’s trying to change the paradigm and they’re … More MILITEM FERŌX500 comes in with a V8 and seats made from denim

The Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 looks a lot better on the road than it does at a car show

January 25, 2022

I’ve actually just realised that we’d basically never seen the new Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 ‘in the wild’. So far, we’d seen the press pictures, we’d seen pictures on social media from car events where the Countach was present, but we’d never seen it on the road. Until now. Earlier this week, Lambo took one … More The Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 looks a lot better on the road than it does at a car show

Just when you thought you wouldn’t get your monthly dose of “Italian supercars no one’s ever heard of”

January 7, 2022

This is the Anomalya, the latest supercar from Italy. I know I said it doesn’t have a name but it does, what I meant was this is yet another supercar made in Italy by a company no one’s ever heard of. It’s made in a small town near Lucca, Tuscany and it’s basically the result … More Just when you thought you wouldn’t get your monthly dose of “Italian supercars no one’s ever heard of”

Yet another supercar from an unknown brand, but this one’s cheaper than most

January 2, 2022

This is the Bermat GT-Pista, yet another supercar from a brand no one’s ever heard of, but the company that builds it, Bermat (from Northern Italy), said it is going to cost “no more than 200,000 euros”. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a lot of cash, but it’s a realistic price tag. Which is … More Yet another supercar from an unknown brand, but this one’s cheaper than most

Driving the Mercedes AMG GT-C down a cypress-lined Tuscan road

May 13, 2020

The old SLS AMG was mad. It was powered by a 6.2-litre naturally aspirated V8, putting out 571 hp and it weighed, when all is said and done, about a million tons. In theory, the SLS would do zero-to-sixty in 3.7 seconds but the truth is you’d never get to sixty, because you’d be facing … More Driving the Mercedes AMG GT-C down a cypress-lined Tuscan road

The Ferrari Roma is a lot better than I thought it would be

May 9, 2020

In the 1980s, my hometown used to be the third wealthiest city in Italy and expensive cars were selling like hot cakes. Then things changed and, well, it no longer is. However, there’s still a Ferrari dealership in town and I was finally able to get acquainted with the all-new Ferrari Roma. There were plans … More The Ferrari Roma is a lot better than I thought it would be

Parco Valentino: on the Verge of Becoming the World’s Biggest Car Show

June 26, 2019

The name is Salone Auto Torino del Parco Valentino, which is Italian for “Turin Car Show at the Parco Valentino”, but everybody calls it “Valentino”. It is named after the public park in central Turin in which it is held, it’s open to the public, it’s completely free and, this is what you want to … More Parco Valentino: on the Verge of Becoming the World’s Biggest Car Show
