14 MODERN CLASSICS
MASERATI SUEDE
JACKET £440.
Even if, like our Simon, you’re
not a huge fan of the Trident,
then this suede jacket still looks
great. It’s largely made from
suede with some Nappa
leather highlights, plus a
Maserati Classiche patch and
an 8 CTF 1938 car patch. It’s
available in sizes XS to 3XL.

EIBACH PRO-KIT FOR
MITSUBISHI EVOLUTION VI £
Eibach’s kit helps to improve handling by
lowering the car’s centre of gravity – in this
case by 25mm. Made from high strength
silicon chrome vanadium steel, the springs
are shot peened and powdercoated to
withstand UK weather, so they even come
with a five-year warranty. eibach.co.uk
MINICHAMPS ALFA ROMEO 75
V6 AMERICA £29.
This 1:43-scale model accurately presents the
square-cut brutality of the 75, though the
(correct) US impact bumpers don’t help it.
We’d love to see a Veloce-kitted UK 75
Cloverleaf though. minichamps.de
ACID HOUSE LOVE BLUEPRINT £
It’s 30 years since the second summer of love – where
nightclubs and abandoned rural warehouses alike
reverberated to the beats and basslines of acid house.
This blueprint maps how dance music evolved, from
Kraftwerk to Deadmaus, via The Hacienda and Shoom
and everything else in between. wearedorothy.com
CLARKE ‘HARRY
HOT WASH’ HIGH
PRESSURE CLEANER
£658.
Aside from the amusement of
being able to say ‘I’m just going
to spray Harry’ to your wife,
there’s lots to recommend. The
hot jet can reach 80 degrees C,
and it has a water flow rate of
450 litres per hour. Fuel
consumption rate is 1.5 litres per
hour. It’s nice and compact too.

AUTO GLYM POLAR
SERIES FROM £14.
Auto Glym has launched a series
of detailing products that can be
applied with a pressure washer,
to avoid the swirls and scratches
you may get if using a sponge.
First apply long-lasting Polar
Blast Pre-Wash (£17.40). Next,
Polar Wash (£14.99) that cleans
grime, then finally apply Polar
Seal (£19.99) and leave to dry.
Then admire the glossy finish,
with a hydrophobic layer causing
water to bead. autoglym.com
FORD RS BEACH TOWEL £26.
This 100 per cent cotton beach towel will
easily show those other lesser beach towels
who’s boss. Or possibly get nicked and used
in a ram raid, if the tea leaf’s feeling
particularly nostalgic for the early 1990s.
