The November issue of New Zealand Classic Car is out now!

6 November, 2016

The November issue of New Zealand Classic Car (Issue No. 311) has hit a shelf near you, all ready for you to pick up, find a spot in the sun and devour! In this issue you’ll be treated to:

From the rafters of a Sydney shed to this pristine, beautifully restored example, our featured 1936 Cord 810 Westchester has been a labour of love.  

It was in 1987 when Larry Price got to see the car of his childhood dreams — and a seed was sown.

Lake Como, Italy, once again provided a spectacular backdrop to this year’s Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este.

What better way to spend a day in the snow than an attempt to master snow and ice driving under expert tutelage.

The November issue of New Zealand Classic Car (Issue No. 311), is now available in stores — but if you’d rather not leave the comforts of your abode, grab a print copy of the mag from the link below!

Luxury by design

15 January, 2026

How do you define luxury? To some it is being blinded with all manner of technological wizardry, from massaging heated seats to being able to activate everything with your voice, be it the driver’s side window or the next track on Spotify. To others, the most exorbitant price tag will dictate how luxurious a car is.
For me, true automotive luxury comes from being transported in unparalleled comfort, refinement, and smoothness of power under complete control. Forget millions of technological toys; if one can be transported here and there without the sensation of moving at all, that is luxury — something that is perfectly encapsulated by the original Lexus LS400. It was the first truly global luxury car from Toyota, and one that made the big luxury brands take notice.

Morris’ ground-breaking, world-beating, Minor
It was Britain’s biggest small car, and it got Britain mobile again.       Morris Motors celebrated its millionth Minor in December 1960, a car that defined the British motor industry, and was in production for 10 years alongside the iconic Mini of 1959.
Whakatane dentist John Twaddle has a passion for Morris Minors going back to 1982, and he still has his first example. There are now three ‘Morries’ in his garage. One, however, is quite special, a rare ‘Minor-Million’. 
One of just 350 made commemorating the millionth Morris Minor produced, the first British car to hit a million units, the well-rounded little Brit’ would end production in 1971with a tally of over 1.6 million units.
John finished his Minor Million six years ago, resplendent in lilac, its official factory colour. He calls it his ‘Minor Resurrection’, and it has won numerous awards.
This summer edition also comes with our annual FREE classic car calendar, a must for every garage wall.
Every issue comes with our FREE huge wall poster; this issue, our poster is of a couple of garage mates, a 1957 Ford Ranchero and a 1968 Lincoln Continental.
