Goodwood FoS “Festival of Speed”… If you’re into cars, you probably know that this event has become one of the major car-related events of the year. But on the contrary to the cold halls of the Paris “Mondial de l’Auto” or the Geneva International Motor Show, Goodwood FoS is all about smoking tyres, noise, action […]
Ferrari, the Prancing Horse, the “Rosso Corsa” bright red colour, the noise (music), the fame, the magic… The dream car for many of us. There’s something unique to Ferrari, an unexplainable fascination for these sometimes outrageous machines, something irrational that has created a legend. Today, in this Ferrari-special episode of “The Petrolhead Corner”, it is […]
In last week’s Petrolhead Corner we had a talk with Rob Dickinson, the man behind the coolest Porsche 911 restomods on the planet, and this week we’re continuing a bit on the same track.

But […]

So fasten your seatbelt and let’s look at some of the most entertaining car-related stories we found around the web. Volkswagen […]
Around fifty of the world’s most stunning classic cars, the most beautiful vista’s surrounding an Italian lake and wearing the beautiful and brand-new A. Lange & Söhne Lange 1 Time Zone 25thAnniversary. These elements set the tone for a splendid weekend attending the Concorso d’Eleganza at Villa d’Este. The rarest of the rare, with often […]
No worries, MONOCHROME is still a magazine about watches and our love of beautiful horology. However, truth be told, watches aren’t our only passion… There are other kinds of wheels, pinions and engines that drive us crazy. Today, we’re introducing a new series on MONOCHROME, something that is still driven by passion, something that is […]
