Rich Duisberg

Rich's drivel regularly appears in Practical Performance Car and GT Porsche magazines. He has also written for Classic & Sportscar, MogMag, Classic Performance and Retro, Banzai, Evo, and Modern Mini. He also did a book no-one bought. His hungover fizzog also often appears on CBS’s Carfection channel enthusing about historic motoring. Le Mans winner Derek Bell once refused to get in Rich's Morgan Three Wheeler with him at the wheel. Currently amongst the detritus in his garage is a 1972 Fiat 500 Abarth, a fat BMW and a Lotus Elise. Previous machinery includes a Porsche 968, an Alfa GTV V6 and a dreadful Sinclair C5. He also owns a vintage Royal Enfield pushbike.

Giugiaro’s Ace of Clubs; The Piazza Turbo

CarClub 18-30, CarClub 18-30 - The Cars
1979 was an otherwise unremarkable year for car design. European car of the year was the Chrysler Horizon, a car so dull we had to google to remember what it was. Fortunately, to offset such motoring tedium,...

CarClub 18-30 - The Cars, Out & About
Lamenting the loss of my red GTV I happened upon an example of its sibling, the Fiat Coupé, in a place called Frog Island. Despite its unusual name, Frog Island is a rather grey place and perhaps that dull...

Made from wrinkly tin from ‘47 to ‘81, the H van should really be a MotorPunk favourite. It has DS running gear and 2CV headlamps. If it were an animal it would be a French Bulldog made out of wet...
