The new SwissClassics Revue will be hitting newsstands and subscribers' living rooms in the next few days. The cover story of the 45th issue is entitled"Triumph TR3 - One type, four countries, four faces" and features a Triumph TR3, a Devin TR3, a Peerless GT and an Italian Michelotti TR3. Technically, these four models are closely related and yet they are fundamentally different. In this issue, you can find out more about the unique characteristics of each vehicle and why the little English sports car inspired designers and enthusiasts from different countries to achieve top performances.
"The one with the Swiss cross" is what it is often called, the Lotus Elan from this issue. It was assembled from two cars, suffered damage several times under racing conditions and was battered on hillclimb circuits - a real horror for originality fanatics. Or is it?
How about a classic with which you don't have to hide in the fast lane? SwissClassics Revue suggests the BMW 6 Series. You can find out which quirks buyers need to be wary of in the buying guide in the magazine.
Almost everyone in this country knows Dacia, Lada and Skoda. But what about Gaz, Moskvich, Praga, Syrena, Tatra, Trabant, Wartburg, Volga and whatever else they may have been called? This special presents cars from the Eastern Bloc , because the comparatively simple and tough automobiles from the East have inspired and continue to inspire many Swiss people.
