NOSTALGEAR'S DIARY
Ford Sierra Cosworth
This time we get closer to our days with a product born in the early ‘90s - where technology and modern society begins to rise. In a time where the Media gains such power that changed everyone’s life by getting in our houses with global news, the Gulf War and that very strange thing called “Internet” - the www was born, and every known boundary was rewritten.
The last Fiat 500 in History
Today our leap into the past takes us to the story of the Fiat Nuova 500.
If you’re unfamiliar with the Fiats first born 500, start with forgetting about today’s 500, it has nothing to do with it.
The Fiat 500 has quite a history, dating back to 1936 with the Fiat 500 ‘Topolino’ produced until 1955 (from model A to C) and the next model Fiat Nuova 500 (models N-G-D-F-L-R) produced from 1957 to 1975.
A little spoiler: we got our hands on the last Fiat Nuova 500 model R produced in history.
Lotus Omega Opel - The Excess on wheels
Today we’re going to talk about Excess, Speed and Arrogance. And what’s the best era that describes all of this? That’s right, the good old 80s.

But for us, petrolheads, it was a hell of a time where fire-breathing supercars engines would end up in quiet sedans creating these unique (and senseless) ground-to-air missiles.
So here it is, born straight from the excesses of the 80s - today we’re going to talk about the Lotus Omega Opel and where we found one.
What if Juliet was a Porsche 911?
We all have a dream car.
That unattainable car that we dream about since we’re kids, that car that seems impossible to have, shortly, we all have ‘that car’.
