Today, the Petrolhead Corner goes modern… While we have a slight tendency to talk classic cars and vintage motorsport in this weekly car-related column (we can’t help ourselves), today we’ll look at what the (near) future has got for us in terms of cars. Indeed, in a couple of weeks from now will be the […]
If like us you’re a classic car enthusiast, the name “Retromobile” should ring a bell… And if not, it’s about time for you to discover what this superb event is all about.

Well, yes but there’s a chance that another LaFerrari parks next to yours in front of the Four Seasons – and that’s doesn’t sound exclusive.
