As a passionate enthusiast, Meindert is associated with the Ford brand. There's nothing more fun than sharing the enthusiasm for classic Fords with like-minded people. For him, that is connectedness through passion. And the Ford Granada 2600 GL from Meindert is rarely seen on the road anymore. More
The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is also known as 'Evo' and mainly supplied in Japan for use in rallies. How did this right-hand drive Japanese youngtimer end up in the Netherlands? According to the records, it drove from new in 2003 to 2019 in Japan, where it was put up for sale through an internet auction. After his purchase he eventually ended up in Scotland (Glasgow) where Albert van der Meer managed to track him down and drove him to the Netherlands. The youngtimer looks immaculate in its deep black paint. More
And you don't only see that loyalty with the beautiful and special Citroën GS, but also at the wedding of their French family friend, a sheep herder of the French breed Briard named: Roos. They are all three passionate Citroëndrivers and before it was purchased 23 years (!) ago, the family already had a bright yellow 1979 GSX. That was their first car and they have been driving it for years. 'Une vehicle excellence'. More
Are encounters when it comes to classic cars a coincidence? Or is it always the right time and the right place? The discoveries and owners of beautiful classics/oldtimers don't appear just like that, do they? More
We like to use the word 'image' when we talk about Volvo models. Image is the image that exists of Volvo and is precisely used when it comes to the Swedish quality product. Surrounded by solidity, safety and comfort, Volvo has a strong reputation. Piet Wijbenga, the owner of this 1968 Volvo Amazon, can confirm this. More
There is something fascinating about wandering about a dismantling company, you never know what you will encounter. But sometimes you see something that makes your blood flow faster. Like a 1968 Mustang California special that recently swapped the dark garage for the outdoors.

In 1973, Douwe Land purchased a new Opel Kadett Caravan for the careful and correct delivery of the packages he was transporting. Douwe Land could transport everything, long, wide, heavy, vulnerable and fresh. The Opel Kadett Caravan was the preferred means of transport for delivery in the region. More
The classic of Sweden is sometimes said, but we think that the beautiful stylish and now rare convertible also deserves that predicate in the Netherlands. We encountered this extremely tempting form of transport on the Wadden diamond Ameland with Hillie (Rob's wife) behind the wheel. Rob turned out to be a car coddler who, together with his wife Hillie, has the necessary outdoor fun with the Saab. More
How can an international businessman who has been buying (and selling) wholesale lots for over 40 years escape the bustle of business life? If business is a lifestyle and business acumen is active 24 hours a day, is there still free time? Yes, because Epie still has a love for motorized treats from his childhood, and that influence is still felt. People who are attracted by the same (car) passion will understand. More
What could be better than driving a youngtimer like the sporty Opel Manta GSI? In addition to being a fun and compact sports car, it is also of great importance to Renze that it has always remained in the region from the first owner and the story behind the car is also decisive for him. More
A beautiful story of father and son with a healthy dose of car enthusiasts. In 2015 a Volkswagen Scirocco was found and the passion broke through to start a restoration job. It was the right thing to do, nothing could stop them, it felt good and they both let themselves be guided by a fantastic sense of pleasure. If you are enthusiastic, then nothing seems difficult, but it took at least 5 years of hard work to prepare the Volkswagen for a second life. More
Jaap loves Renault, the French voiture has already conquered his motorists' heart during his working years at the Renault dealer Rosier in Leeuwarden. Already at that time he thought it was an appearance with daring modern contours and we are talking about the 60s/70s.
