The new Auto Bild klassik 3/2014 is on newsstands. And as always, the 200 or so pages are packed with a variety of topics.
The super sports cars of the sixties
Especially in winter, the sight of hot-blooded Italians can certainly warm you up, especially if they come from Lamborghini, Ferrari or Iso. For once, instead of the usual Miura-Daytona-Ghibli composition, the Iso Grifo has been added!
How the Targa got its name
A "Breehnschdorming" gave the Porsche 911 its name "Targa" and the idea came from Harald Wagner. You can find out more in the biography.
Another personality, this time from the world of motorsport, Niki Lauda, has his say in a detailed retrospective.
Lego cars
Not only 1:1 scale cars are featured in the new ABK, but also vehicles made from Lego bricks. Dane Henrik Meier designs classic cars every day at Legoland Billund, from the Chevy Impala to the VW Beetle.
Bargain time
Another article calls for a treasure hunt. There are many automobile rarities that can be bought very cheaply, from the VW Corrado to the Rover P6. The article "Why are they so cheap?" shows and discusses a number of bargains that fit into any budget.
The controversial topic of classic cars equipped with electric motors is also discussed.
And anyone suffering from a defective control unit may be interested in the new solution to this problem described.
