Like many of us, as a boy Borzou Sepasi would go to the local newsstand with his father and ask if he could purchase one of the foreign car magazines such as Autocar. He would take it home and painstakingly translate the text one word at time, devouring the information about the rare cars he could only see in the pages of these magazines. Like many of us, Sepasi became an expert in a field where there were few, a pioneer on the subject of European classic cars. He became a car guy, a true enthusiast, a seeker of knowledge, and finally a motoring journalist and award-winning author. But unlike all of us, Sepasi was born, bred and educated in Tehran, Iran in 1978 just at the beginning of the Islamic Revolution.
