Fight your demons and gut them. Get Lost, eat exotically, paint recklessly, hug your siblings, laugh with your nephews, and drive spiritedly. Live a little longer and write that story.

10 things we love about the Peugeot 308 SW.

I have had the privilege of driving so many different cars over the past year, so much so that I am frequently asked which one is best. I can't really answer which is best, because they're all different - but I can tell you which one is the most complete. 

On the 15th of April 2017, Opus Macchina quietly turned a year old. We've decided to share some bits of our journey over the past year. It has been an absolute joy for all of us and we are humbled by the support of our followers and our peers. This outfit always remain to be nothing more than #alovelettertocars.

In a shocking revelation, I prefer the powertrain of the WRX, a car I thought I'd never like, over the mighty STI. I test both back to back to see the differences of these boost hungry rockets.
