See my latest BrownCarGuy & Buddies interview with UAE’s leading motoring and motorsports photographer
‘Brown Car Guy & Buddies’ – Jorge Ferrari is one of the leading photographers in the UAE, but he’s been based in the region as far back at 1986 in Kuwait, where he found himself caught up in the invasion by Iraq.

We haven’t had a saloon this sexy since the 406 from the mid-90s
Remember the Peugeot 405 from the late 1980s? That was a sharp looking car with clean bold lines and a meaty stance.

Did Ferrari misplace its blueprints? That was one seductive Pug, slinky and seductive. Sadly Peugeot peaked with that car, and we’ll now jump over the 407 and even the first generation of the French car makers new player in the segment, the 508.
Check out these pics and tell me if I should try to shoot some more this summer?
As a kid my dad would never let me touch his classic 1960s Yashica 365 Twin Lens Reflex camera. When he passed I asked my mum if I could have it as a keepsake.

Two pics from the 2017 Gulf Concours at the Burj Al Arab in December. The above Lancia Flaminio, because I love the way this composition and the colours worked out. And below…
