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?
Small screen scene đź“ş
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!
