The Essen Motor Show

[misteralz]

A few hours down the road from me, but it's winter and I'm old so there's no way I'm driving in the dark at both ends of a long day. Also, an excuse for schnitzel and Erdinger? Yeah, I'll take that.

[pedalcarjoe]

any idea of the price on the Polo ?

[misteralz]

The Harlekin? It was twelve k!

The Wehrmacht helmet speaker pods on the Kubelwagen are a nice touch.

This is such a good set of photos, I really need to get to it one year.

[misteralz]

Thank you! It's the second time I've been and it was different enough from last year to be worth it. Plenty eclectic that you'll find something that will excite you. Probably also lots that'll confuse or mystify you, like the two Nissan Silvias with the early Morris Marina front ends.

Isn't that the 'Rocket Bunny' kit?

[misteralz]

Yeah. Inspired by the Marina TC, surely?

I miss the Essen show photos I used to see in old magazines pre (widespread social media) internet. No doubt there are some very nice cars there, but it could be photos from a car show in *insert any country in world*.
