TAKING OFF
Concorde
A Cessna can take-off at a speed that a Morris Eight can reach, a 747 lifts at 184mph, but Concorde, history's most insanely brilliant piece of Anglo-French engineering, needed to do 250mph to get airborne. Never mind the fact that only 100 people at a time could experience the 38,000lb of thrust from the four Rolls-Royce/SNECMA Olympus 593s, or that they could bring only 2.5 tonnes of luggage between them: this was the greatest passenger aircraft of all.

Don't judge a book by its cover
TO ASSUME the creation of Hervé Valliet is yet another Lotus Seven imitator would be utterly wrong. A quiet perfectionist and entrepreneur from the Isére region in the French Alps near Grenoble, he has owned numerous sports cars, such as Caterham, Wiesmann, TVR - even a Ronart W152.

The Magic of a Shadow
Even today, when prices for a good Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow have risen to a level vaguely commensurate with their stunning quality, these are still hugely undervalued cars - victims of their own success, because lots of them are still around.
