Highball 16: Hello Yellow?

Can you believe that I’ve attended the last 10 Highball Cars And Coffee events at Bosch HQ in Clayton? When I first showed up, I had absolutely no idea what would come of it. I didn’t think I’d be able to build a following off the back of some photos posted sparsely on Instagram. The…

The Madness Of Motor Ex

When I went to Motor Ex in 2022, I was let down. The car selection wasn’t that interesting to me because it lacked variety, focusing more on muscle cars and hot rods with very few Japanese and European cars in between. To tell you the truth, I’m not that big on cars from the ’60s…

Highball 15: Blue Sunday

I sometimes feel like I’m living a crazy life with all manner of crap going on around me. I don’t have the same level of independence compared to others so I have to deal with a lot more people just to get out the door. I make music, post photos of cars on Instagram, play…

The famed automaker has become one of the most recognisable brands alongside Ferrari, Toyota, Ford and Lamborghini, with a strong reputation for building reliable sports cars and all-conquering racers. They have…

Highball 14: Red October

Spring is a funny season. It can give the us the best and worst weather, throwing up all sorts of chaos at the drop of a hat. This is just a Melbourne thing though so don’t think that climate change has suddenly ruined our lives because Port Phillip Bay is a wild beast. However when…

Highball In The Mall 05: Driving The Cold Away

Winter is not an easy season to get through. The colder temperatures, rainfall and lack of events often leave you feeling a little bit more isolated from the rest of the world. I’ve been at home for the majority of the last few weeks, sheltering myself from the bitter cold and wasting a heap of…

Compello All In Actually Delivered

Promising something and then following through on said promise is a pretty simple concept to grasp. However, there have been many occasions in history where someone has promised something massive and then not delivered for one reason or another. The previous Compello show, Euro Vs JDM, was one of these occasions. When you are paying…

OPTIMA Ultimate Street Car Was Something, I Guess

For the last couple of years, the OPTIMA Ultimate Street Car Challenge has taken place across the USA to see who has the fastest street-legal car across a variety of different events. As one of the main events at SEMA, the world’s biggest aftermarket trade expo and custom car show, it has attracted some wild…
