AutoModified is a South African motoring site built around modification culture: the concept cars that inspired it, the legends that earned it, and the practical know-how that keeps it on the road. It is written by people who clearly like getting their hands dirty.
Why it’s worth your time
The concept archive is the fun entry point: deep dives on the Alfa Romeo Carabo, BMW Turbo, Ferrari 512S Modulo and Lamborghini Marzal, the wedge-shaped fever dreams that still shape car design. The legends section slows down for proper long-form tributes, and the news desk keeps things useful with pieces like the OBD2 scanner guide aimed squarely at South African home mechanics.
Who it’s for
Modifiers, restorers and weekend spanner-turners, plus anyone who grew up with concept-car posters on the wall.
One honest caveat
The site ranges wide, from museum-grade concepts to shop-floor diagnostics, so pick your lane via the section pages rather than expecting one continuous feed.
The verdict: a proper enthusiast site. Passion in the galleries, practicality in the guides.
