Hey all,
Since I am living in Germany at the moment and i'm only here for another 10-11 months I wanted to make the most of my time here. This means going to see as much as I can and share it with you all.
Well after a bit of an adventure getting to the event which involved a 360klm drive...

(My MK4 Gti I bought a few weeks ago overheated and blew the head gasket on the way 30klms into my trip), I eventually made it! (6 hours later than I expected but in a MK6 Golf courtesy of VW while they fixed my car - crappy VW plastic water pump design was to blame).
Was it worth it?
I'll let the photos do the talking.
In terms of size, it's the world's biggest classic car show. Halls and halls of cars and plenty of spares and nostalgic bits up for sale.
To give you an idea of the size, think Australian motorshow, but with all classic cars. This isn't your usual sunday show kids. To put things more into perspective we were literally tired at looking at cars...
Think about it, car enthusiasts who cannot bare to see another 911, Stratos or Alfa...There is simply too much to see and I couldn't possibly capture it all.
Rather than straight up shooting each and every car that caught my eye I tried to give you a taste of the event and how special some of these cars are. Not only in their design and rarity, but also the details that make them just so amazing.
Enjoy.
This is one of the first cars we saw upon entering, it hits you like a sledge hammer. Tough, heritage and sleek. Awesome just oozes from every angle.

Even a quick peek out the side door just uncovers another level of bad ass.

The car park was special too, but it was raining and trust me we had seen enough.
