Although beautifuly styled by Pininfarina and a huge commercial hit in Europe, the Peugeot 405 family saloon was not exactly what most would call an exciting car.
But then came Peugeot Talbot Sport with the turbochargers. The 405 T16 Grand Raid became a jaw dropping coupé with top rally capabilities and, in the hands of Ari Vatanen, broke the Pikes Peak record in 1988 and had two consecutive wins of the Paris-Dakar in the following years.
We went with the the impossibly cool Dakar livery as the inspiration for this design,

“Racing is the best way to test production cars and victory is the best sales tool.”
– Jean Rédélé, Racing Pilot and Founder of Alpine
The Alpine A110 has been recreated for the modern era, but its original story began six decades ago with Jean Rédélé and the first A110 – and, évidemment, a lot of racing in the Alps (hence, the name Alpine) while eating baguettes au fromagge. Rédélé, also knew that lighter cars go faster, because the A110, although sometimes equipped with less powerful engines than its direct competitors, weighed about as much as a soufflé.
In its many versions throughout the 60’s and 70’s, it won almost every rally it competed in, including Monte Carlo Rally and was crowned the first World Rally champion in 1973. Couple that with a Le Mans win and it’s easy to understand why the A110 remains the stuff of folklore in France.
A glorious racing history stretching back over 60 years, that only received its coup de grâce by the introduction of the revolutionary mid-engined Lancia Stratos.

“If God was a machine, it would definitely be an F40” – Enzo Ferrari *
The best Ferrari’s were always built with a particular purpose. The F40 was designed for speed and performance, a car specifically engineered to beat the Porsche 959. This meant that it that it would need to become the first production car to reach the mythical 200 mph mark – not to mention the, at the time unheard of, 0-62 mph time of 4.1s. To achieve its purpose, a 2.9L twin-turbo V8 putting out close to 500 hp was mounted in the back and extensive use of carbon, kevlar and magnesium made it race car light. It also probably didn’t hurt that the expression “true Ferrari” was commonly thrown around by the team that developed the F40.
It was also, from the very beginning, the last Ferrari to have Enzo’s touch. Both him and the team knew at the time that this would be the last Ferrari that “Il Commendatore” would ever personally sign off on.
No wonder then, that it turned out to be a “true Ferrari”.
The Land Rover Defender is a true icon. The best 4x4xFar, remaining in production for almost 70 years until 2015. In the end it were the ever-tightening emissions regulations that closed the curtains… We cannot guarantee that our socks are emissions free, that’s really up to you. Also be advised that our socks are not expected to endure 70 years nor are recommended to walk on mud.
