There's another great one: the archive of the Technisches Museum Wien. They cover mostly German, Swiss and of course Austrian races.

Also, I'll risk killing the myth, but the road-going Turbo 16s are not good at all to drive. The standard 200bhp car is plain shit. The engine has 0 torque and when the turbo kicks in, well it's not as crazy as you'd think. Also, it's 400kg heavier than the GTI and has the same brakes. I'll let you do the math. This…

I've always loved the 309 GTI16 so much better than the 205 GTI. I mean, come on, 4 additional lights in the bumper as a factory standard, that has to count for something.

I'm actually in the process of looking into a new daily driver, and I send an email to a dealer about a low-mileage (like 20K miles), 2001 Ford Mondeo owned by an elderly couple.

Was this car one of the Sport Evo models? I mean, I've seen an 18,000 km single owner car sold at auction in Monaco 2 years ago for 78,000 Euros (I was sitting next to the guy who bought it), but still.

It's a shame Le Conservatoire generally isn't open to the public like the museums maintained by Porsche or Mercedes. I'd be there in a heartbeat if it was.

I was actually considering a Countach as even days daily driver, in place of my 125 cc which has an odd number.

Here's one for you Porsche boys: the garage of Dr. Julio Palmaz in the Napa Valley.

I'm fportunate enough to have met Luciano on several occasions and even had dinner with him at a couple of the Vernasca Silver Flag events.

And the really forgotten ones are the following RS60 and RS61. Similar in shape, but with a 1.6l engine.

906, 908 variants were pretty famous and successful. 906s mostly in the 2l class, 908s in 3l. That's the reason they're still very popular in vintage racing.

It's actually a very dark blue. Blu Scuro.

Most people who race genuine Bugatti on the vintage circuits use PS engines.

I was lucky enough to spend a couple of hours with the two cars at Eagle's workshops back in April, the build quality is insane.
These guys are in a world of their own when it comes to quality and attention to detail, and they're some of the coolest people in the business.

I have one of these for riding in Paris. They're cool, but they suck. The build quality is extremely disappointing, and they're not particularly cheap change at € 300+ a piece.

It doesn't look that much abandonned.

Guys, an R5 Turbo and a Supercinq GT Turbo are two completely different things. The R5 Turbo (and Turbo 2 also) were mid-engined, RWD.

An original RSR engine in a replica would be a waste of money. An original Magnesium RSR engine probably runs about $200K these days... As a comparison point, I know a guy who bought a magnesium engine for a Porsche 906 (2l, carbed) and he paid $150k for the complete engine. They are as rare as hen's teeth! No wonder…

Very cool!

Also, on a side note, here in Paris it's getting more and more common to see dogs owners travel with their companions with a more city-friendly means of transportation: the scooter. I've see a guy with a lap between his feet, a lady with a puddle in the top-case (the dog had his head out throguh a cut-out hole), and,…
