The displacement of the 4-cylinder engine ...

With the launch of the 250 GTE in 1960, Ferrari was able to record its first sales hit. With almost 1, 000 cars built, it was the first Ferrari in this quantity and from then on it was definitely possible to speak of real series production. In view of the astronomical amounts of money that Ferrari's involvement in Formula 1 consumed, it was no longer possible to refrain from building and selling ...

History was made at the Geneva Motor Show in 1961. Rarely before had a new car caused such a sensation. The sleek sports car from the pen of Malcolm Sayer was to unleash an avalanche of enthusiasm and amazement that continues to this day. An entire subculture emerged.

At the end of the 1960s, the K5 Blazer was one of the first cars to combine the characteristics of a pure off-road vehicle with those of a luxury car. The concept was also realised at around the same time by competitors such as Ford, Jeep and Land Rover. The Blazer was based on the rather rustic K10 pickup. The car was now upgraded with amenities such as a three-speed automatic transmission, electric ...

The sensation of the 1948 London Motor Show: visitors crowded around a streamlined prototype on the Jaguar stand. The incredible response to the car encouraged William Lyons to put the car into production shortly afterwards. With a top speed of over 120 miles per hour, the XK120 was to become the fastest production car of its time. Chief engineer William Heynes certainly played the biggest part in ...

The Autobianchi A112, the Mini of Italy. Like its British competitor, the compact and practical car was designed for everyday practicality with a good price/ performance ratio. From 1977, the small car was offered on foreign markets as a Lancia. This was pure marketing, as the parent company Fiat thought it would complete the Lancia fleet. And what would a mass-produced vehicle be without a sports ...

The Mini doesn't really need much explanation, because everyone knows it. The icon from Birmingham was known by many names during its 40 years of production: Austin, Morris, Innocenti, but everyone is familiar with the name Mini, which became an independent brand in 1969. For a car that hardly changed over its entire construction period, the range of variations was nevertheless colourful. Whether ...
