TorqueCars™ - Who are we?

TorqueCars started as a hobby, a few pages about my Rover 220 Gti and documenting the problems and modifications I made to it. I discovered that many of the claims made by manufactures were misleading and decided to create a community where others can share their tuning and styling experiences so we could be a practical "best practice" guide to car modifications.

Because we only refer to cars we decided to call the site Carref. Since then TorqueCars family of sites has just kept growing and growing and we are going from strength to strength. Carref is still a hobby but is starting to become an obsession!
