The June issue of Oldtimer Markt magazine is also packed with interesting content. In addition to the 60th anniversary of the Karmann Ghia, it tells of the reconstruction of an Opel ambulance, the beautiful Peugeot 203, the MG F is looked under the hood in the buyer's guide and Ferrari battles De Tomaso in a duel.
60 years of the Karmann Ghia
In the cover story, Oldtimer Markt takes a trip back to the roots of the Karmann Ghia sports Beetle. The cooperation between Wilhelm Karmann and the Turin-based Carrozzeria Ghia quickly became a success after its presentation in 1955 and was considered one of the most beautiful cars in Germany at the time.
The Japanese conquer Germany
Good, cheap, fully equipped - that's how you can describe the Japanese cars of the time. Oldtimer Markt has researched and reported on how the Japanese came to Germany and what happened when they stirred up the German market.
Ferrari versus De Tomaso
In the June issue, the legendary Ferrari 308 GTS goes head-to-head with the De Tomaso Pantera. The two V8 Italo sports cars are compared in an eight-page report.
Peugeot 203
Innovative, solid and beautifully packaged: the 203 was Peugeot's successful response to the lean post-war years. It successfully combined French comfort with American design and downright Teutonic quality. In a ten-page report, Oldtimer Markt presents the bestseller of the time.
Healing an Opel ambulance
Members of the Arbeiter-Samariter-Bund from Mainz-Bingen have successfully restored an old Opel Olympia ambulance and brought it back to life - Oldtimer Markt followed and reported on this interesting project.
MG F in the buyer's guide
With the MG F, MG returned after a 15-year break and the roadster quickly became Britain's most popular sports car. The buyer's guide examines whether the British car is worth buying or more of a penny grave.
Tour Auto, Techno Classica, Hispano-Suiza logo, ...
Oldtimer Markt was present at two events, namely this year's Tour Auto through France and the Techno Classica in Essen last April. Both are shown in many pictures.
Oldtmier Markt tells briefly and concisely about the Spanish-Swiss brand Hispano-Suiza and its logo. There is also a report on the MG TD as a restoration object and in the Tips and Technology and Service section, a lot of advice is given on the topics of pre-war gearboxes or chrome care.
