You don’t see many cars with the signature Zagato Double Bubble roof design, aside from a few exclusive Aston Martin Supercars, the odd hyper car and some great racing cars of the 50s and 60s. And you certainly won’t buy one without a very large sack of cash, unless it’s a rather fetching Peugeot RCZ, like this one. Read on...

As a rule, a 1984 Diesel Mitsubishi Pajero doesn’t have much in the way of ‘Green’ credentials. It has a pretty agricultural 2.3l turbocharged diesel engine that can sprint to 100kph in under the time needed to cook a roast dinner, whilst asphyxiating native wildlife in its wake. But it is painted a very fetching shade of minty green, which certainly makes it look friendlier. It’s also back in fashion. Read on...

And it’s Racing Orange, exclusive to this edition. So if you missed out here’s your second chance. Read on...

The fourth generation Toyota Hiace was such a popular van in NZ during its 15 year production. Most came with little to no comfort options, drove okay, and were likely to be lethal in a crash. But it was bomb proof (if not always rust proof), dependable, and didn’t depreciate like most cars. And due to the nature of the work these vans did, most had rolled over the 200,000km mark in their first five years. However, Turners Hamilton has a 25yo example that is yet to hit this modest milestone in Hiace terms. Read on...

What is it? Well, it’s a Nissan Silvia in fancy dress. It was made by a company called Mitsuoka and the model is the Le Seyde. It’s outrageous from every angle, is one of only 500 built, and you definitely want to be going to the Great Gatsby themed party that this thing’s headed to. Read on...

Back in the nineties this would be the van of choice to take your band on tour across America. These days being a touring musician pays so poorly you couldn’t afford the gas to run the 5.7L V8 across town, never mind the country. Unless you’re in a tribute band.
