Schumacher to Sagora - Your weekly dose of automotive nourishment
Fancy buying some F1 history? Now's your chance...
Have you ever seen a Defender pivot quite like this!? The crazy team at Avin the Crack has LS swapped this Defender and taken it drifting, looks like amazing fun.
Car of the week đź’°
This is almost certainly the first and last time you’ll see a legit Ferrari F1 car as the car of the week. It’s not just “any” Ferrari F1 car either, it’s one of the most successful Michael Schumacher-raced Ferraris of all-time, driven to 5 F1 victories and recorded 3 pole positions, all achieved in Schumacher’s final year at Ferrari. It’s been in private ownership since it was purchased directly from the Scuderia in 2007. It’s available via a sealed auction between the 14th - 19th of November, how much do you think it will go for?

Let me introduce the TVR Sagora…wait what!? Yes, that’s right, JayEmm reviews this Frankenstein creation, combining a TVR Tamora and TVR Sagaris to create a convertible Sagaris, the Sagora, make sense? Apparently it’s 1 of 3 Sagoras to have been created, but the only one to use genuine Sagaris panels. If I’m honest, I like the coupe, but big respect for creating it! You can see more about the build here.
Hot off the press đź“°
In case you missed it, this car caused a bit of a scene at SEMA this year. It appears to be a twin-turbo, Lamborghini V10 swapped MX-5, however it all is not as it seems. This article exposes the truth about this car. Regardless, it’s a mad build and has generated an enormous amount of exposure for itself.

Seen in the wild đź‘€
I spotted this Renault Scenic RX4 in Holland and thought it looked, well at least unusual. After a little bit of digging, they seem particularly rare, at the time of writing I can’t find a single one for sale. Even reviews are fairly hard to come by, I found this one which wasn’t overly positive and warned of reliability issues…possibly why you don’t see them around!
