And while we were slogging it through bad weather in unknown provinces, Mariano, our colleague from the USA but really from Argentinean descend, was rallying in grand style with friends – a true case of horses for courses right there.

Argentinean road trip – part 2 (Mar del Plata & Buenos Aires)
As you, the faithful, might remember, we took a slight detour (just another 10,000 km and a leap into a completely different time-zone) last months to go back to the sources of the Suixtil brand and, at the same time, some of the most glorious hours of motor racing. We’ve already discussed at some lengths …

And yes, the season is truly back – though this might be the winding down for our Australian friends – then again, what a ways to go: a 4 days rally through the back roads of Victoria culminating (after all sorts of gastronomic, track times and assorted libations as only our cousins Down Under – …

Visiting Argentina is an experience and more – let us tell you about our latest trip, just this past month. As a preamble, it should be noted that we’d been there before – some 20-odd years ago – and that we have also been around a few other places, often taking the proverbial (and literal) …

It has been a while, unfortunately, we had not attended the Amelia (as it is now called since Hagerty took over) and seen for ourselves the changes – and the things that stayed the same.

1000 Millas in Argentina – a late X-mas present, just for you…
And there we go again – back to the roots in Argentina. How does that line go – just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in – and of course, it’s not like we offer too much resistance either… what’s there to resist, after – we did call it “the land …

Velocity at Sonoma and guess who’s invited?
That’s right, wait – how did you guess? – Dave, our 80 years young racer-friend, Ambassador and BARC Boy of legend (check it out to find our how those are made – and kept), keeper of the one and only Honey Bee (the MGA with a sting) made it there with Nazdar (the 2002 he …

Racestripe Magazine reviews Suixtil – that’s sweet, sorry Swede!
Good news travel fast – they also travel far, as we found out when reading the message from friendly Robert that Racestripe magazine – a gorgeous webzine put-together in Sweden by true aficionados for the simple pleasure of it – had decided to publish a feature on Suixtil. And this right after Christmas, with their …

The Morgan Club de France receives a formal Suixtil introduction
Right in time for Christmas too – you’d almost think – if you did not know us better, but you do – that these are sophisticated moves from some great masterminds, rather than the fumbling around of of an aging team of classic-car fanatics with a passion for keeping a story, and the spirit it …
