The absolute classics

When Araminta Reed, aka Mint Likes Cars, isn’t articulately admiring an Audi RS2 Avant (one of her favourites) at a verdant concourse, or a Ferrari 250 California Spider GTO on the Silverstone pit lane, she’s busy bringing her own style of refined enthusiasm toplatforms so often associated with a more meretricious kind of female-fronted content. With an unfiltered passion for the very best in high-end vehicular excellence, and ready to acerbically cut the more egregious or unnecessary of paint treatments, tints and mods right down in three words, her feed eschews the bling or cocksure in favour of odes to luxury craftsmanship and automotive soul. We asked her to take some time out from posting so that she could compile an assemblage of her favourite kind of open-tops for us, which you really do want to be seen in cruising down the King’s Road in this summer.
