We Bring You to the 2014 Techno Classic Essen
There is a reason why I LOVE attending the Techno Classic in Essen... it's all the cool classic cars! Yup, the quality of the cars on display here and that fact that all the major German car makers are here - at the factory level, makes this show a MUST SEE event each year. It's the worlds largest classic car show(so says Siha, the organizers) held in Europe. I believe it. I always have such a great time here. It's a wonderful car show. You can find anything car related here: cars, car parts, tools, artwork, cars for sale, model cars and toys for big boys and small one too! And its always nice to see the old classic favorites as well as what's in style this year. The flavor of the month per se. All the big German car makers were here. BMW had a very nice display(as you can see here, a sort of mix between BMW AG classic collection and local BMW car club cars) but MB and VAG(VW/Audi/Porsche, etc) had a very, VERY nice showing of cars. I think BMW needs to step up their game a bit. You be the judge. But I will warn you now... looking at these photos might just make you want to catch next year's Techno Classic. Dackelone

BMW at Techo Classica Essen 2014
Greetings all. I attended Techno Classica in Essen this past weekend and thought pictures from the BMW section would be of interest to multiple people. Almost all the cars in the extensive display were different from the ones last year. The race cars were the stars for me, but every car was an incredible sample, and reps from many different BMW clubs were present.
The BMW display was just one small part of the show, and if you like classic cars it is worth making the effort to attend. Cheers Last edited by mdss6; 04-01-2014 at 04:44 PM.. Reason: Photos not showing? |

As usual, thanks for taking the time to snap all these pictures and share them. I must say, I am jealous of all these car shows and museums you get to see in Europe.

John Tanglewood @kdbryce @3R10 @JasonCSU @BwoodBMW ^^Thanks guys. I know I have been very fortunate living over here in Germany and in the land of BMW(Bayern). I have seen so much BMW GOODNESS over the years. I don't take it for granted! I know, I am one lucky guy!

Yup! I am a big FAN of the Silver Arrows(SilberFeile) cars. This was one of the replica Auto Unions Audi had built a few years back by a small British company. Look at the exhaust pipes... that's a dead give a way. Real ones had the exhaust pipes straight up thru the rear bodywork. This one had some sort of silencers so they can run the cars at vintage race events like GoodWood.
Btw... MB has produced a WONDERFUL new dvd(s) on the Silver Arrows. Take a look.
