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!

The owner of this 1978 GTV, Stephen Perry, with only a skerrick of wishful thinking, says through half-closed eyes, “It is not dissimilar to the Maserati Khamsin”.
The nose is particularly trim and elegant from all angles, featuring cut-outs for the headlights echoing Alfa’s own exotic Montreal. The body is unfussy, lean with lots of glass, and the roofline shows a faint family resemblance — although on a much more angular car — to the curved waistline of the earlier 105s. The slightly hunched rear means there’s much more space in the rear seats than in the cramped rear of 105s — very much a 2+2 — and a generous boot. These more severe lines are not quite as endearing as the 105’s but they are still classy and clearly European.
