The Xmas tree is back in the garden and both the decorations and champagne glasses are stored in their boxes. So the New Year is on and the holidays are over, goodbye 2018, hello 2019!

Rallye De Bretagne 2018, Plouay (56), 09/06/2018

Anyway as 2018 was not an easy year I am not sad to turn this page of our album. Fortunately from a car perspective 2018 was a great year, first Retromobile, Le Mans Classic and more. So let’s close 2018, plan 2019 and as it customary, set some goals and make some New Year’s resolutions.

19th classic auto-moto fly market, Redon (35), 18/11/2018

The website is now up and running but it needs more content. Unsurprisingly few articles and galleries from 2018 will be added. For example you can expect photos from the Rallye de Bretagne,

Le Mans Classic,

and even some NASCAR.

We will also witness for the first time the best at the Tour Auto (29th April – 4th May) as the main goal in 2019 is to go out to new events and to keep enjoying cars and more…

Well, there are some pictures from 2018 to wait for the ones from 2019:

Why add text to images? They already worth 1000 words, aren’t they? and why do you need more than cars?

It’s simple, we want to explore more than the cars, go beyond the beautiful lines.

No news, no rush, we want to take the time to tell the stories of those beautiful cars. Share the passion of their owners, the devotion of the mechanics, the talent of the drivers or the history of the manufacturer.

Hope he is reading something about cars.

Of course, there will be some editorials to express an idea an opinion more or less related to the news. However, the purpose of this blog is to add some context to the photos. You will also find posts dealing with more than cars to go further and share our passions.

No need to pretend to reach the level of blog such as Boitiers Rouge or Ate Up With Motor. Unfortunately, we won’t be able to cover the automotive culture with the same efficiency as Speedhunters, Petrolicious or StanceWorks…

Nevertheless, these references and others inspired us for this blog on the automobile and more.

Also these posts will remain online without major changes. Therefore this blog will be the guardian of our passion. However, the galleries will evolve and adapt to fit our tastes and desires of the day.

Hope you enjoy the read, feel free to comment and contact us if you want to be mentioned here!
