Honest car reviews both big and small
Mazda CX-3 sticking with a good thing ... Not much seems to have changed with Mazda’s stylish small crossover, the CX-3, since I last tested it a couple years ago. I mean it gained two horsepower (big whoop), but really nothing much needed to change. I’d still like more horsepower, but at least there’s a... Continue Reading →
Britain's Vanwall was dominant F1 racer, briefly ... Vanwall, the name alone sounds intriguing when attached to a green monopasto racer that somewhat resembles a racing cigar.

Plymouth Valiant Wagon sharp in 1/43 scale … Wagons are ho-hum these days, and nearly extinct, unless you count crossovers as wagons. But in the 1960s they were a big deal as families tried to make room for the Baby Boom generation that was rapidly filling up their sedans. At the same time, a sizeable... Continue Reading →
