    Mercedes 'S' class W140

    There can be no doubting - this is a real McCoy. In other words, genuine 'S' class. Of course, we all know (don't we) how much maligned they have been over the years, and probably correctly so. Nevertheless, still a magnificent car and this video does remind us of this fact. Regards...

    Mercedes - 'S' Class History

    Great video, albeit in German. The film coverage itself is excellent. Just as an aside, I firmly maintain that there was never any 'S' Class model prior to the introduction of the 116 series cars. I don't know why there is a tendency nowadays to credit that terminology to earlier models...

    Citroen DS - The Goddess

    One of the most remarkable, and attention grabbing cars of all time. Maybe this video has already featured on TK - if it has, please forgive me for the repeat. This is a great video, with lots of good text and interesting information. Regards Styria http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AjmLmG16Nw

    Ferrari 458 ITALIA

    How do you start a video on this Ferrari - naturally, you start the engine and rev it to 5000rpm. I know it shouldn't be part of TK, but hell the closest I'll ever get to one is to watch this video. Please enjoy. Regards Styria http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NT3W5JOj8Ig

    Purchase of new honda jazz

    To get back to the summary of this little Honda, I'd like to talk a little about the interior. It is a very agreeable place to be in - comfortable, well supportive seats, and clearly legible, but fairly simple instruments. All controls are at your fingertips as one would expect from new cars...

    Purchase of new honda jazz

    I guess I should have known that, usually sooner or later, Photobucket will come to the party. In this instance, I am now able to illustrate my sentiments about the exterior mirrors - large size, body coloured as two different units, and the built in indicators. Front doors are wide opening...

    Purchase of new honda jazz

    Another try at Photobucket. Front light beautifully crafted, with intricate parking light built in. The large rear lights the same - generous in size, beautifully crafted. As I have indicated, some quite intricate swage lines have been introduced, and whilst they do not 'scream at you'...

    Purchase of new honda jazz

    Okay, I'll start this reply again - it's just so frustrating when you have typed a couple of paragraphs and the computer freezes, and you are unable to retrieve what you have already typed. Anyway....anyway, we collected the little Jazz Vibe by way of our Statesman last Tuesday afternoon gone...

    280SE 3.5 Convertible

    When I attended Salzburg Classic Days back in 2005, it is accurate to say that the 280SE 3.5 Convertible and the 300SL and 300Gullwing Coupe were the most commonly displayed cars. Amazing, when one considers the premium prices these models attract nowadays. I managed to copy this video which...

    VW Phaeton W12 - 2004

    It takes a bit to comprehend that this Volkswagen Phaeton is almost ten years old. I realize that the styling, especially front on, could be more in keeping with today's techno design standards - really, it is a little plain, but nevertheless very neat and compact. What makes this car for me...

    1976 Mercedes 280SEL

    Very nicely kept specimen. Interior appears to be Anthracite Grey - one of my favourites. Considering its condition and year model, the door trim has lost all its sponge, it has the later type Air Conditioning, and an early model radio. Nevertheless, it looks very nice. Regards Styria...

    2011 Rolls Royce

    Nothing but the best from this dealer in (North Carolina ?) At least I can see and experience, to a certain degree, what others can call their own - and that is luxury of the ultimate. Regards Styria http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNbCfl-G3n4

    2011 Aston Martin Rapide

    The name Rapide is like honey on your tongue - it rolls off so smoothly. This is about the latest in a long line of cars titled Rapide and going back to the thirties. Lagonda, of course, is the name uppermost in mind. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9Qtr_gEL6c Regards Styria

    PRE-WAR MERCEDES Pebble Beach

    There are about five or six cars photographed in this section - usually at least four photos of each car. After you have opened the page, RIGHT click, LEFT click OPEN LINK and LEFT click each picture. To my eyes, the 770 Cabriolet gives to very few other cars...

    Tatra 600 - 4cylinder

    This is a short "acquaintance" drive of a beautifully restored 1932 (? please correct me if I'm wrong) Tatra. As a snotty nosed kit in Austria, used to see the odd one, invariably owned and driven by gypsies. They were always black, (the cars, not the gypsies) and to my kid's eyes, they looked...

    Mercedes 220SE - ca. 1962

    This video brings back many memories of my early driving days. One of the many cars I used to own was a 220SEb, with drum brakes all round - it was an early model, and an absolute flyer. Good enough, and fast enough, to keep pace with a 108 - 280SE 3.5 going up Galston Gorge towards Galston...

    Auto Union Racer - 16 cylinders

    An absolute masterpiece of engineering, priceless today. I am not sure if it was this engine, but one of the owners of one of the Auto Union racers, remarked that it took his mechanic three weeks to dismantle the engine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKXgqZr8-5k Regards Styria Another...

    Road Testing the A-Class

    Well, the new A-Class certainly does not bear great resemblance to the original body shape. I have referred to the Honda Jazz we are purchasing as being close in looks to the A Class, but that has all changed now. The A-Class has grown up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0K-0vkFfUmY However...

    AMG front Spoiler

    Hi Ronin6.9, firstly please let me welcome you to TK. It is hoped that you will like the site - at times, we're getting away a little bit from matters pertaining to our 116s and 107s, but the cars are a little thin on the ground, so I try and find other means to make the site more readable and...

    1939 - 770K German Staff Car

    I was fortunate and privileged to see three of those lined up side by side at C. F. Mirbach, Classic Car dealers, in 2005. The actual physical size of these cars was overpowering. Unfortunately, taking photos was VERBOTEN. (Prohibited). Regards Styria N.B. The music and background audio...
