Photo Gallery «Picture story Retro Classics Stuttgart 2026 - Carpet floor in the Swabian metropolis»

Trade fairs are really not easy to photograph in the right light. The vehicles are usually wedged tightly together and don't offer any camera distance. If there is some space, then there are certainly hundreds of thousands of visitors in front of the lens. But trade fairs always bring very special impressions of people and emotions into the picture. Despite the usually miserable lighting conditions, it is still fun to stroll through the halls and look for slightly different motifs. Here is a "movie full" of a different kind from Retro Classic Stuttgart.

... that they are very difficult to photograph, ...

... the Lancia Stratos is definitely one of them.

Sport quattros were a dime a dozen and ...

It's nice when Grandpa philosophizes with his grandchildren about the "lightness of being".

... we'll both get to the Stilfserjoch much faster!"

Sometimes pure coincidences help and so it was probably ...

... in the design of the 512 Testarossa.

It immediately reminds me of a kit from Tamyja, ...

... they did not manage to complete it, ...

... it landed very quickly, crumpled up, in the garbage can.

The "sixth friend's" teeth must have rattled ...

... had to reckon with hefty parking fines.

The CLR showed its great passion at Le Mans: ...

In the dry exhibition halls, the aim was to prevent dehydration, ...

... which of course entails the odd pit stop.

... perhaps he will have the four rings together by 2027.
