As I said in my previous picture this beautiful antique mobile from 1934 was a technical tour de force in the automotive world at the time.
This Lagonda M 45 Rapide Tourer had a 6 cylinder engine with a capacity of 4.453 cc and a power of 115 HP, with a top speed from 160 km per hour.
Automotive technology at the time was not yet refined, so the 115 HP from an engine of this size is disappointing and not much compared to today's horsepower.
Before that time, however, it delivered enormous power and high performance and this car was faster and cheaper than a Bentley.
The illustrious car brand Lagonda did not recover from the Great Depression in the 1930s due to financial problems and went bankrupt.
Today, Lagondas sports cars are rare and the standard model price is € 155.800,00.
This boy is equiped with all possible original options and therefor worth several tens of thousand Euros more....

It's all too easy to overlook good photo opportunities in everyday life that you often see, so sometimes take some extra time and go for a walk with an open mind and see your everyday life in a new way. It can open your eyes to good photo opportunities right in your vicinity.
There are a lot of memories in this photo for me, my mother had a black VW Type 1 from the late 1950´s, the one with one small oval rear window and the indicators behind the door.
My mother lived in this street in the 1960´s, though not in this house.
If any of you know which year the car in this photo was made, please let me know, it can be difficult, because older models often got updated with new parts.
I have seen this car drive with the trailer you can see in the background.

From across the parking lot, this brilliant yellow Jeep was 'calling' to me! Something about the simple design and bold colour in combination that makes one take notice.

The dream car was featured in an ad for Veedol Motor Oil in “The Saturday Evening Post,” April 5, 1952.
“Found Wherever Fine Cars Travel. For All Cars . . . Old and New . . . VEEDOL, The World’s Most Famous Motor Oil. Scientifically designed to keep ahead of performance demanded by today’s modern motors, VEEDOL, made from 100% Pennsylvania crude, goes far beyond mere motor oil performance to keep modern motors ‘cleaner, safer, smoother-running.’ VEEDOL’s famous ‘Film of Protection’ brings you the kind of ‘Dream Car’ performance that belongs in your car. Remember, the use of quality oil is your best insurance for your car, whatever the make or year. – TIDE WATER ASSOCIATED OIL COMPANY.” [Ad copy]
Veedol motor oil is a historical brand introduced in 1913. Henry Ford selected Veedol as the factory-fill for the world’s first mass-produced car, the Model T. Veedol lubricated the engines for the Graf Zeppelin’s historic 1928 global circumnavigation. The historic airplane that achieved the first non-stop flight across the Pacific Ocean in 1931 relied on Veedol and was named, “Miss Veedol.” Veedol synthetic lubricants were used during the 1979 flight of the Space Shuttle Columbia.

Richard Arbib’s “V-Liner Custom Sedan” was never built or implemented in any physical capacity—neither as a scale model nor as a full-size car. It remained strictly a 2D illustration created for the Veedol "Dream Car Salon" advertising campaign ran by the Tidewater Oil Company in the early 1950s. However, the design ideas behind the V-Liner did leave a lasting mark on Arbib’s career.
The bold "V" motifs, sharp geometric front-end cues, and dramatic side trim seen in the V-Liner illustration directly informed Arbib’s real-world work when he was hired by American Motors Corporation (AMC). He adapted these visual themes into the production 1956–1957 Hudson Hornet and Wasp lineup, introducing what AMC marketed as "V-Line Styling".
While the V-Liner itself was never constructed, Arbib did successfully bring other futuristic, space-age concepts to life as working vehicles. Most notably, he designed the 1952 Packard Pan-American (built by Henney) and the famous 1956 Astra-Gnome "Time and Space Car" (built on a Nash Metropolitan chassis). [Source: Google Gemini]
