Although not an original 930 tartan pattern, the Magnus is a tribute to Magnus Walker's own plaid designs. Who's he? If you need to ask you're probably not a petrolhead. Magnus Walker is a fashion designer, style icon, automobile enthusiast—and owner of one of the world's most astonishing collections of Porsches, particularly 930 911 Turbos.
One of the original tartan patterns available for the 930's seat upholstery.First recorded around the year 1830, the MacLachlan Clan wore a red, blue and green variation of the Black Watch. In the original 930 catalogs, it was called Shottenkaro.
In the early 1970s, Saab introduced the 99 EMS to the market. Right up until the 99 Turbo was released, the EMS was not only the top model from Saab's own assembly in Trollhättan, it was also the sportiest.In addition to its commercial success, the 99 EMS made its appearance known in the rallies and marked a generation alongside its notorious driver behind the wheel, Stig Blomqvist, the real and original Stig!While the virtuous driver was consecrated World Champion with Audi, he immortalised Saab in the dust.
In the '80s, "The A-Team" had every kid glued to the screen and dreaming about the coolest van of all time. Driven by B.A. Baracus it powerslided and jumped through TV-unprecedented doses of explosions and gunfire while the Team saved the world and made us pity the fools, one episode at a time.Despite riveting performances all around, the real star of the show was a GMC V8 van with quad tip exhaust and a custom Black and Gun Metal Grey paint job with a Red Stripe across it that ends in a rear wing, red bespoke wheels and fog lights - a lot of them.This enduring pop culture symbol is a worthy addition to our Screen Heroes collection and a tribute and toast to our childhood dreams.

A rare gem of auto history, this one of a kind Aston Martin DBS V8 raced in the Le Mans 24h and simultaneously broke the record for fastest caravan towing (apparently that's a thing), and along the way earned itself the nickname "The Muncher" for its insatiable appetite for brake discs.

After becoming the big fish of European rally, Audi packed its Quattro system and five-cylinder turbo and crossed the ocean to conquer the tracks of the United States. The pinnacle of that effort was the Audi 90 IMSA GTO, a car that literally and figuratively showed its rear end to nearly every competitor it came across.

The year was 1999. The new-team-on-the-block BAR left everyone scratching their heads at the sight of 2 different cars, while simultaneously setting a new record for fastest to get in trouble with the FIA. The result was what became known as the "zipper livery", a first-of-its-kind hybrid - and, as far as we know, last.

In the late 1950s, the CIA commissioned a top-secret project dubbed 'Archangel', to fly faster and higher than anything before - or since -, invisible as a ghost. The most iconic aircraft of the Cold War was born, the impossibly futuristic spy plane SR-71 Blackbird.
Forty-something years ago a legend was born. The 3.5 inline-six M1 was the first car to be entirely developed by BMW's M division and was designed from scratch for a life on the track. You can think of it as the great-grandfather of all M BMWs, a dynasty that has since done so much to help shape and push forward the sports car segment while amassing a global legion of devote followers.Originally planned to be a collaboration between BMW and Lamborghini, the M1 was launched in 1978 with only about 450 units of the mid-engined hand-built bavarian unicorn ever being produced. And, with a top speed of 260 km/h, it was "Germany's fastest sports car" and therefore crowned Kaiser of the Autobahns. But BMW's plan went far beyond just creating an amazingly good sports car that also looked the part. In 1979 the BMW Procar Series came along, a one-make racing championship starring a beefed-up 310 km/h version of the M1 and, in spite of its 2-season only short lifespan, went down in history as a spectacular star-incrusted motorsport event, with a parade of F1 drivers joining in on the fun - Andretti, Fittipaldi, Hunt, Lauda, Piquet and Prost just to name a few. Spoiled for choice, we went with the BASF livery - does the word cassette ring any bells? - in part because of its unique and remarkable design, but mostly because it made the biggest exhaust flames of the lot. Seriously, google "M1 BASF flamethrower".You're welcome!

The Japanese called it Whistling Death.The F4U Corsair is one the most iconic fighters of WWII. With its 2,000hp Double Wasp engine, it could out-fly any propeller-driven aircraft it faced on the opposing side, producing an overall kill ratio of more than 11:1.That's one badass pirate! 🏴☠️

The first BMW M3... we could just stop here but the E30 was also the best looking '80s sedan with the coolest stance and an unforgettable DTM paint job that made our life very very easy... can you tell it's one of our favorites?
Esprit. Lotus Esprit.The Lotus Esprit S1 was the first version of the mythical british model, a car that became known for its avant garde shape and great handling mostly due to Lotus' relentless weight reduction obsession.But it was when it plunged into the Mediterranean and transformed in to an impossibly cool submarine in one of the most surprising car chases in any 007 movie, a move that made Bond and car fans around the world gasp. As well as being an amphibian it could shoot torpedoes, drop sea mines and launch surface to air missiles. If only modern SUV's could keep up with 1970's technology...

Launched in 1975, Ford's Escort MkII RS1800 is arguably the single greatest culprit for the Blue Oval's achievement of rally superpower status, back in the late '70s. It's also one of the most requested designs by RS fans the world over.This modest family sedan was just one of those cars that almost instantly rose to cult status, mostly due to being able to achieve tremendous success in Rally competition, right from the very beginning of its long and triumphant career.Driven again and again to victory by the likes of Vatanen and Mikkola - and in the way beating fierce competitors like the Porsche 911 and Lancia Stratos - it was at the hands of Björn Waldegård that Ford finally pulled off a World Champion title in 1979 and established itself, once for and all, as a consummate Rally top dog.

The Williams FW16 competed in the 1994 Formula One season and was raced by British driver Damon Hill to finish runner-up in the 1994 World Drivers Championship. Unfortunately it was also the car in which Ayrton Senna was killed during the third race of the 1994 season. This is our tribute to the greatest F1 driver of all time. The inspiration for the sock design comes from the Rothmans cigarettes sponsorship livery.

The car that invented the hot hatch set a pretty high bar for all that came after it.But its birth wasn't easy...The prototype was based on a Scirocco, with an EA827 engine with dual carburetors and a lowered and stiffened suspension. When Volkswagen's Chief of Research drove this prototype, he objected to the harsh suspension and excessive noise from the intake system and declared the car "undrivable". Nevertheless, the VW Golf GTI team persevered and ended up assembling an exceptional automobile.
Only 39 Ferrari 250 GTO's were ever built so chances are that the closest you'll ever get to one is owning a pair of these socks. The knit design was inspired on those gorgeous headlights and air intakes. In Ferrari Rosso, what else?

The Sauber Mercedes C9 was highly successful in the 1988 WSC, winning everything in the following season, including a 1-2 victory at Le Mans - although by then it was already painted silver. With only one C9 with the 'hi-tech' AEG livery left in existence, these socks are truly a chip off the old block!

In the 80s, Opel played a relevant role in the European rally scene, and no other car from that era stood out more than the Manta B 400 on the German brand's roster. Its gorgeous long and low silhouette conquered fans wherever it went with splendorous sideways action on asphalt and dirt alike. And, thanks to generous use of kevlar on its bodywork, it was light, which also made it popular with rally drivers.

In 1991, Mazda became the first Japanese automaker - and an only rotary-engine racer - to win the world's most demanding endurance race, the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
In the end, it came down to the reliability of the Wankel rotary engine that made up for the lack of speed against the mighty Jaguar and Mercedes competitors.
The unique conditions that enabled this surprising victory - along with a crowd-pleasing high-revving engine with F1-like noise - immediately elevated the 787B to racing legend status.
The orange and green diamond Renown livery makes for a pretty cool looking pair of socks, even if you first had to google "Wankel rotary engine" to get what all the fuss is about.

Back in 1956, Alec Issigonis was assigned by BMC to develop a very small, simple, and economical car that could carry four adults and their luggage.
It soon became apparent that this new car would be revolutionary in every aspect, with John Cooper being the first to spot its potential for racing.
This leads to some initial success on the track and set the starting point for an unprecedented story in motorsport with this small but nimble performer leaving behind a pack of far more powerful (and puzzled) opponents.
It culminated in Paddy Hopkirk's famous win in the Monte Carlo Rally in 1964 - an event the Mini would dominate up until 1967 and forever tied the Cooper name with the sporting legend of the Mini.
A minimalistic approach to the red livery of the last Mini to win in Monte Carlo - the gigantic 177 - was the inspiration for this sock design.
* unlike the original Mini did, we can't promise these socks will make you feel taller.

With ten official versions set apart by Roman numerals, each new one poised to rule over all that came before it, the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is one of the great Japanese dynasties.Despite its humble origins as a family sedan, with the help of Mitsubishi's performance division Ralliart, that transformed it into a car-shaped toy, it won 4 consecutive WRC titles at the hands of Tommi Mäkinen, from 1996 to 1999.All hail the Emperor of the Rising Sun!

The Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 was the top first-generation 911 and is considered by many Porschephiles to be the best of them all, which, when you talk about 911's is saying a lot. Unsurprisingly, the RennSport was initially built for racing homologation and was a fast car even by today's standards - 0/100 in 5.5s and a top speed of 240 km/h - much due to the extreme weight loss tricks that the Stuttgart boys came up with.
The extraordinary ducktail rear spoiler, the resurrection of the Carrera name from the '50s and its rally and track achievements all contributed to make this a very remarkable 911 among a long list of noteworthy 911's.
More recently, this once epitome of sports cars has become famous for the somewhat ridiculous prices it consistently reaches at car auctions, even being considered a few years ago as the best (legal) investment of the decade, with upwards of 700% appreciations.
