The new Auto Bild klassik 2/2014 offers 180 pages of entertainment and interesting facts, shortening the winter months for many classic car and youngtimer enthusiasts.
Turbo and co
This time, the main article is dedicated to turbo and supercharged cars from the 1970s to the 1990s, starting with the Porsche 911 Turbo and the Mercedes Benz 300 SD turbodiesel through to the Maserati Biturbo and Lancia Trevi VX. In addition, the Mazda RX-7 is portrayed in its sharpest (turbo) version and the history of the Volkswagen G-Lader is unrolled.
The Porsche from Goliath
The Goliath 700 sports coupé was an extremely innovative vehicle, which was also adorned with a captivatingly beautiful body. It was well worth the time and effort involved in the extensive restoration, which took over 1800 hours, as there were only 25 of these rare vehicles in existence.
All-wheel drive legends in winter
Four 4x4 vehicles, which are probably not often found in German-language classic car magazines, get to let off steam in the snow: AMC Eagle Wagon, VW Passat Synchro, Audi 80 Quattro and Subaru 1800 Sedan. And which one is the best? You can find out in the magazine, of course.
Automotive pop architecture in California
A very special story is dedicated to the sometimes bizarre houses and buildings that were built in the USA (and later also in Europe) in the 1950s around the motorist. From fast food chains to petrol stations and restaurants, buildings were built in garish colors and opulent shapes. The article shows some of the architecture that still exists today with matching automotive accompaniment in the form of the Nash Metropolitan.
Other articles deal with the Volkswagen T2, the best event dates of 2014 and LED lamps for the mechanic. And that's not even the half of it. Everything is available in magazine shops for Euro 4.20 (4.50 in Austria) or CHF 8.50.
Further information on the new issue can be found on the Auto Bild website.
