Totally uninteresting topic: I’m guessing if growing a beard again or not. When I have it I want to shave it. When I don’t have it I want to grow it. Life is hard. #beard

Keira Knightley in that famous commercial by Chanel, a few years ago. #keiraknightley #chanel #ducati
“CLASSIC & SPORTS CARS”, the Uk magazine, universally known as to be the “bible” for classic cars lovers, dedicated in the past a few features about your humble Marquis. That especially thanks to the friendship that links me to classic car journalist master Martin Buckley. This one was about the Silver Shadow he bought for me in Uk ( and that he kept 4 long months before letting me have it...). I saw it in the flesh for the first time in an underground park on the Champs Elysees in Paris and that alone was worth the whole affair. #rollsroyce #silvershadow #paris #classicandsportscar #martinbuckley
Alain Delon and Bmw are not two names that I would naturally connect one to another. But every one of us riding a boxer would sell a kidney to look so handsome on the saddle. #alaindelon #bmwboxer
When I started this page of mine, originally just on the web, I selected this image as the header of the homepage. It really epitomises what I call “vintage motoring culture and lifestyle”. It has been showed often everywhere these last years, becoming a sort of icon, the like of McQueen or others. That said: I’m happy to show it here again. If ever someone doesn’t know: she’s French singer/actress Francoise Hardy on “Grand Prix” movie. #francoisehardy
Your humble Marquis as co-pilot at the Targa Florio, a few years ago. Too tall for an AC Cobra. ( great memories anyway ) #tootall #flatcap #targaflorio #accobra #sicily

The great and only Betty Davis. Muse, model, funk musician. And the second wife of that Miles Davis. She inspired him to embrace rock and funky sounds. A real “influencer” for around a decade. Then she decided to disappear. #bettydavis
