When Carl F. W. Borgward returned to his factory from internment after the war in 1948, he already had plans for a new mid-range car. The Hansa 1500 was the first German post-war design to be presented at the Geneva Motor Show in 1949. The pontoon body was sensational: no wings, thus more space in the interior, no semaphore indicators as direction indicators but modern flashers developed by Bosch. ...

BMWs first post war car was the model 501, a representative, luxurious limousine. But its six-cylinder engine with two liter capacity from the pre war model 326 could not keep up. In order to match performance, the model 502 came with a V-8 engine. It was available with 2. 6 liter capacity and 100 PS or 3. 2 liter capacity and 120/ 140 PS. Sales remained modest, however, since the conservative design ...

When the new Mercedes limousines from the W 111 series (nicknamed "Tail Fin") were introduced, the former "Ponton" convertibles looked conversative in comparison. So the market and customers instantly took to the cabriolets and coupés from the series W 111. Starting in September 1961, the 4-seater cabriolet was available and was considered the most beautiful cabriolet in the world.

Only 65 examples were built between July 1958 and February ...

After the introduction of the new Jaguar Mark V Limousins, the sensation was presented at the end of 1948: The Jaguar XK 120. The figure 120 signalled the top speed of 120 miles or 193 km/ h. And that in 1948! The further development is the Jaguar XK 140, which means even more power, more space in the interior and not quite as puristic as its predecessor. The SE (Special Equipment) version had even ...

With the Type 180 and its so-called pontoon body, Mercedes became modern from July 1953. The passenger car chassis and real wings had become obsolete. The new, self-supporting design offered significantly more interior space and for the first time allowed safety aspects of a specifically mouldable sheet metal structure. After the four-cylinder models, the public eagerly awaited the six-cylinder models. ...

From 1952, series production of the Type 327 began in Eisenach, but now with the brand name EMW (Eisenacher Motoren-Werke) ...

Daimler-Benz started its passenger car production in June 1947 with the 170 V and the four-cylinder engine. The development goal was to quickly return to the top of the international automobile manufacturers. The newly developed six-cylinder engines for the 220 and 300 models were a great success. The body of the new Mercedes 220 was conservative, as was favoured by the buyers of the time, although ...

Timeless elegance was the perfect description of the appearance of the new Mercedes-Benz 220 S Convertible. As the self-supporting body required reinforcements in the floor assembly, the dream car only came onto the market from July 1956, somewhat later than the limousine. At DM 21, 500, the Convertible cost considerably more than the limousine, which was available for DM 12, 500. The intention was ...
