Techno Classica 2005

Yippee 9 April 2005 14:28:21
 
I just returned from Techno Classica in Essen, Germany. It's an annual
classics fair which the organisers say is the largest in the world.
Nineteen halls, 110,000m^2 (1.2 million ft^2), 1,000 exhibitors,
thousands of cars, more than 130,000 visitors. It's pretty big.

There's no hope of seeing it all in one day. I estimate we got through
about 75%, we had to let the club stands go. I'm sure you could find
everything you need for your car at the trade stands if you spent a week
looking for it, but unfortunately the fair only lasts four days.

Quality is always very high. The large German manufacturers tend to
really pull out the stops, with BMW and VAG each occupying their own
hall. Mercedes invests a lot, too, this year celebrating the history of
the S-class in preparation of the new version coming in September. There
was a heavily camouflaged W221 prototype on show, complete with
almost-real security agent. Audi was celebrating 25 years of Quattro
with a whole gaggle of ur-Quattros and VW was failing miserably at
making Bugatti's history its own. Other manufacturers show a good
selection of cars from their factory museums.
This year saw a remarkably large number of expensive, generally
unaffordable Mercedes on show everywhere: SSK's, 540K's, 300SL's (about
twenty of them) and 600SEL's. Nice to look at (apart from the 600SEL's),
but you get a bit blase after the umpteenth priceless 540K in concours
condition. Plenty of other high quality stuff, too, like Bentleys,
Lagondas, Bugattis, Horchs and such.

Great pictures. The Tatra V12 looked fun. But what was the the barn find
(with straw bale and chicken to emphasise the fact) at the start of row 11?
The caption mention Peugeot, but with a spiral bevel axle and open
propshaft? Still, it made the Bug in the next photos look even nicer by
contrast...

Great pictures.

Thanks.
The Tatra V12 looked fun.

It's a Tatra T80, with a 6-litre engine. Very rare as only 22 were built
between 1930 and 1935. It looked awesome - the picture doesn't do the
car justice.

You're right, it's not a Peugeot but an Opel commercial, either Olympia
or Kadett. The car was there to advertise exhausts - hence the spanking
new exhaust system on it.
Still, it made the Bug in the next photos look even nicer by contrast...

I only included that pic to show the poor car wax salesman toiling away,
in contrast to all the precious metal on offer elsewhere.

The manifolding is interesting, but I suppose it is what you get when you
design a side valve V12 with only one camshaft. I just hope they specified
valve clearances when cold, not hot.

Ah, that explains a lot. Thank you.
