The Carmira has become a very rare sight on the roads nowadays, let alone trying to spot a Camira wagon!
I think the alloy wheels are from the Camira SLi 2000 edition.
I'm trying to create a cinematic look. I know that i must practice much more, but so far i like it anyway.!

Wonderfully original, although I have my doubts the colour was originally this, would a prospective buyer of a 124 in 1968 really opt for battleship grey? It's debatable if these are more well known than what they became in other countries, this was the Ladas origin after all. I suppose you could, like James May, call this one of the most influential cars of all time, and one of the most advanced when it was launched, this replaced the ancient looking 1100.

Nachruf Alfred Jodl
Von Enrico Falchetto
"Getroffen habe ich ihn das letzte Mal Anfang Dezember beim großen Jubiläumsfest von Franz Steinbacher in Wien. Ehrensache, dass er mit seiner Lieben aus Vöcklabruck zu diesem Abend angereist war. Und Alfred war wie immer: gut gelaunt, geradezu aufgedreht. Und immer wieder dieser ansteckende Lacher.
Der kleine Oberösterreicher war ein Großer in der Oldtimer-Szene und er war ein Mann mit einem großen Herz. Selbst durch viel Fleiß zu einem kleinen Vermögen gekommen, half er immer wieder jenen, die nicht so viel Glück hatten im Leben. Veranstalter von Oldtimer-Events und -Messen liebten Alfred. Immer wieder brachte er die feinsten Fahrzeuge, nicht nur jene seiner Herzensmarke Abarth. Er organisierte Stände auf Classic Car Shows und war sich nie zu schade, selbst mitanzupacken. Stets war er dabei unkompliziert, zuverlässig und ideenreich – erinnern wir uns doch nur an den schönen Skorpion-Stand bei der Classic Expo in Salzburg. Und natürlich an seine vierrädrigen Mitbringsel für die Racecar Trophy im Ennstal – zuletzt stil¬gerecht transportiert auf einem historischen Abarth-Transporter.
Kennengelernt habe ich Alfred über meine Freundin Heike beim Rossfeldrennen vor ein paar Jahren – „Ich muss Dir unbedingt den Alfred vorstellen. Den wirst Du mögen.“ Ja, man musste ihn mögen. Der stets braungebrannte Lebemann steckte alle mit seiner Leidenschaft für die Oldtimerei an, lies jeden teilnehmen an seinem Enthusiasmus. Die Lebensfreude des Jodl war ansteckend, umso mehr schmerzt jetzt, dass er nicht mehr bei uns ist. Wir trauen mit seiner Frau und seinen Kindern, sie tragen den größten Schmerz, weil sie diesen Sonnenschein am innigsten erleben durften."

Silver Arrows (German: Silberpfeil) was the name given by the press to Germany's dominant Mercedes-Benz and Auto Union Grand Prix motor racing cars between 1934 and 1939, and also later applied to the Mercedes-Benz Formula One and sports cars in 1954/55.
For decades until the introduction of sponsorship liveries, each country had its traditional color in automobile racing. Italian race cars are still famous for their rosso corsa red color, British ones are British racing green, French blue, etc.
German cars like the Blitzen Benz were white, as were the three Mercedes that won the 1914 French Grand Prix 1-2-3. On the other hand, in 1922 (Giulio Masetti) and 1924 (Christian Werner), Mercedes won the Italian Targa Florio with cars painted red, blending in with the local competitors. The big supercharged 200 hp Mercedes-Benz SSK with which Rudolf Caracciola won the 1931 Mille Miglia was called White Elephant.

Highlight der Pariser Automobilsalons in Herbst 1988 war der Audi V8, mit dem das Unternehmen erstmals den Schritt in die Oberklasse unternahm.
Die Motorkraft wurde in Normalfall automatisch im Verhältnis 50:50 auf die Achsen entsprechend ihrer Bodenhaftung verteilt. Unter schwierigen Bedingungen liess die elektronische Steuerung bis zu 100 % des Drehmoments an die Antriebsachse mit der besseren Traktion fliessen. Zunächst gab es den Audi V8 ausschliesslich mit Viergang-Automatikgetriebe. Ab Anfang 1990 wurde für den sportlichen Fahrer auch ein Fünfgang-Schaltgetriebe angeboten, ab Ende 1991 war auch ein Sechsgang-Schaltgetriebe verfügbar.
Die Karosserie war vollverzinkt und basierte auf der Baureihe C3 des Audi 200. Grundlegende Veränderungen gab es im Frontbereich bei den Scheinwerfern, der Motorhaube, Stossstange und den Kotflügeln. Kennzeichnend waren auch grossen komplett rot eingefärbten Rückleuchten. Der Audi V8 wurde ausschliesslich als Limousine angeboten.
Die Avant-Version war eine Sonderanfertigung.

EMW 340-2, Niemieckie Muzeum Techniki (Deutsches Technikmuseum), Berlin, 18 marca 2018 r.
Pojazd wyprodukowano w 1952 r. w fabryce w Eisenach, która przed II wojną światową należał do BMW. Po przejęciu jej przez radziecką administrację produkowano nadal samochody pod marką BMW, jednak w 1951 r. fabrykę przekazano państwo wschodnioniemieckiemu, a nazwę zmieniono na Eisenacher Motorenwerk (EMW) i zmodyfikowano logo. Samochód EMW 340-2 bazował na konstrukcji BMW 326, napędzany był 55-konnym 6-cylindrowym silnikiem o pojemności 1971 cm sześc. Jego produkcja trwała do 1955 r. Później w zakładzie powstawały samochody Wartburg.

EMW 340-2, German Museum of Technology (Deutsches Technikmuseum), Berlin, March 18, 2018
The automobile was manufactured in 1952 in Eisenach factory, which before the World War II belonged to BMW. After the take over by the Soviet administration automobiles were manufactured still under BMW brand, however in 1951 the company was handed over to the German Democratic Republic and the name was changed to Eisenacher Motorenwerk (EMW) and the logo was modified. EMW 340-2 was based on BMW 326, it was driven by a 55-HP 6-cylinder engine with the displacement of 1971 ccm. Its manufacture lasted until 1955. Later the factory built Wartburg cars.

- Springfield-built Silver Ghost
- Left-hand drive
- Known ownership history
- Recent extensive refurbishment (including an engine overhaul) by Frank Dale & Stepsons
By the end of WWI, North America was the largest and most important car market, with more cars sold per annum in the USA than the rest of the world combined. Cars brought into the USA were subject to substantial importation taxes, so the Rolls-Royce management decided that in order to satisfy its customers' demands at a more cost effective price, a manufacturing operation should set up on American soil. In 1919, the old American Wire Wheel Corporation plant on Waltham Avenue in Springfield, Massachusetts was purchased. As well as being an ideal location for supplying the New York and Boston markets, Springfield was also the centre of the United States' coachbuilding industry, with an abundance of skilled labour.
By November 1919, Rolls-Royce of America Inc was formed, but it would be well into 1921 before the first US-built Silver Ghosts were ready to be sold. Unlike in the UK and Europe, where quality chassis were usually bodied by independent coachbuilders to the individual customer's requirements, the United States market for luxury cars demanded they be supplied fully finished from the manufacturer. To compete with the local competition - principally Packard, Pierce-Arrow, and Cadillac - Rolls-Royce of America enlisted several of the local coachbuilding companies to supply 'semi-custom' bodies to standard designs under the 'Rolls-Royce Custom Coach Work' (RRCCW) programme. As one would expect of Rolls-Royce, the quality of the coachwork was first class; bodies were panelled in aluminium and with steel mudguards in most cases, quite different from the British style of construction.
One of the companies supplying bodies to Rolls-Royce of America at this time was Brewster, which would be taken over by Rolls-Royce in December 1925. As well as manufacturing coachwork of the highest quality, Brewster had built its own automobiles from 1915 up to the time of its acquisition by Rolls-Royce, re-emerging as an auto-maker in its own right, using Ford chassis, when US Phantom production finally ceased in 1934 and the company became part of the reconstituted Springfield Manufacturing Corporation.
Brewster's coachwork of this period is rightly considered to be among the most stylish of all time, as exemplified here by this beautiful Playboy Roadster. It should be noted that Brewster's Playboy Roadster coachwork was not officially offered as an option on the Silver Ghost; rather, it was intended as an alternative design to be fitted at a later date: usually once more formal coachwork had been removed and discarded. The Playboy Roadster was produced in strictly limited numbers, with just 15 bodies fitted to Silver Ghost chassis in total.
Chassis number 'S306PL' was completed in August 1926 fitted originally with a Pickwick saloon body to the order of Mr Kerr of New York. By the time this car was made it had become apparent that left-hand drive was essential for the North American market, an alteration to the Ghost chassis that necessitated the adoption of a new three-speed gearbox with central change. Four-wheel brakes likewise had come to be seen as a necessity rather than an indulgence, and would be standardised from 1924 on the British-built Ghost. A mechanical servo, driven from the gearbox, was used on the latter but the American version used the New Phantom front axle together with a Westinghouse vacuum booster.
'S306PL' remained in its original form until 1932 when it was returned to the factory, while still in Mr Kerr's ownership, for the Playboy Roadster coachwork to be fitted (body number 'B7293'). In 1937, the car changed hands for the first time when it was purchased by Mr Elliot Robertson, who owned the Alder Shoe Stores in New York City. The Rolls-Royce was next owned by Mr James Rainey of Milford, Connecticut from 1939 until 1947 when it was purchased by Dr Carl Beam, a professor of biology at Stanford University in California.
'S306PL' changed hands again in 1951 when purchased by Mrs Barbara Backmann of Pacific Grove, California, returning to Connecticut in a partially dismantled state in 1957 when acquired by Mr Walter Florian. In 1972 the Silver Ghost was purchased by Mr Arnold Haber of Nashville, Tennessee, who kept it until 1986. During Mr Haber's ownership, the car was restored and then exhibited at the 1974 R-ROC Concours, winning first place in the Late Ghost Class; it was also judged at the 1977 Concours where it placed second in the same category.
In 1985, 'S306PL' was sold by Mr Haber to Mr Jack McKibbon of Gainesville, and shown again at the National R-ROC Meeting, held on this occasion in Toronto where it placed third in class. The final change of ownership prior to the current vendors' acquisition occurred in 2002 when the Silver Ghost was purchased by a collector in Texas who restored the car in order to use it on long tours in the United States.
Since its arrival in the United Kingdom, the first time the car has ever left the United States, renowned marque specialists, Frank Dale & Stepsons have made the necessary cosmetic enhancements and conducted a thorough mechanical review to ensure reliability, correct performance, and continued enjoyment for the next fortunate owner. These works included, but were not limited to, an engine overhaul and refurbishment of the steering, brakes, and suspension. Related bills are available and the car also comes with a history file and US Certificate of Title.
Chassis number 'S306PL' is fitted with twin side-mounted spare wheels, a dickey seat in the rear deck, and a tail-mounted trunk containing fitted luggage, making the car ideal for touring. The Playboy Roadster by Brewster is a landmark design, highlighting all that was great about the production of Rolls-Royce motor cars in the United States, with this particular example being one of the best of the very few that survive today.

The Citroën DS is an automobile which was manufactured and marketed by the French company Citroën from 1955 to 1975. Styled by Italian sculptor and industrial designer Flaminio Bertoni and the French aeronautical engineer André Lefèbvre, the DS was known for its aerodynamic futuristic body design and innovative technology, including a hydropneumatic self-levelling suspension.
The DS advanced achievable standards in automobile ride quality, handling, and braking. Citroën sold nearly 1.5 million D-series during the model's 20-year production run. The DS came in third in the 1999 Car of the Century competition, recognizing the world's most influential auto designs, and was named the most beautiful car of all time by Classic & Sports Car magazine

There were two of these recycling trucks operating in Eurobodalla before the new contract commenced in October last year. Both of the Hinos were initially operated by Staples Waste, who was bought out by WSN Environmental Solutions, then SITA acquired WSN. You’ve got a Compaction Systems with the larger body capacity, also featuring the neat and little recycle hopper. Otherwise not the most exciting truck in terms of paintwork, quite a plain appearance really.

The Pontiac Firebird is an automobile which was built by the Pontiac division of General Motors between 1967 and 2002. The Firebird was introduced the same year as the automaker's platform-sharing model, the Chevrolet Camaro. This coincided with the release of the 1967 Mercury Cougar, which shared its platform with another pony car, the Ford Mustang.
The vehicles were powered by various four-cylinder, six-cylinder, and V8 engines sourced from several GM divisions. While primarily Pontiac-powered until 1977, Firebirds were built with several different engines from nearly every GM division until 1982 when GM began to discontinue engines it felt were unneeded and either spread successful designs from individual divisions among all divisions or use new engines of corporate architecture.
The name "Firebird" was also previously used by General Motors for the unrelated concept cars.
The Trans Am was a specialty package for the Firebird, typically upgrading handling, suspension, and horsepower, as well as minor appearance modifications such as exclusive hoods, spoilers, fog lights and wheels. In using the name Trans Am, a registered trademark, GM agreed to pay $5 per car sold to the SCCA. Four distinct generations were produced between 1969 and 2002. These cars were built on the F-body platform, which was also shared by the Chevrolet Camaro.

What better place to visit after shooting a few trains crossing over the High Falls? It was wise of Genesee Brewing Co. to locate this brew house at the foot of the pedestrian bridge overlooking the falls. I mean, the brewery was already there anyway, right? Outdoor seating on the second floor permits the enjoyment of beer, food, trains and (more) beer from one convenient location.
Porsche 917-001
Chassis 001, assembled in early March 1969, was the first of the twenty-five 917s completed for homologation. This chassis was used for a multitude of events, though never raced. Its workload consisted of testing at the Nürburgring and display duty in places such as the Geneva Motor Show in 1969 or Frankfurt International Auto Show in 1970.
By October 1970, 917-001 was part of the Press Department of Porsche and painted in the now famous Salzburg paint scheme of the 1970 24 Hours of Le Mans winner.
