Finally we can consider this the “Bavarian Week”, which ends with this 2002 Turbo in need of some care, but with a quite good overall look. The seller says that this was sold new in Germany and then exported to Japan more than twenty years ago. It’s not a show car but, as the seller… Read More Wider than usual: 1973 BMW 2002 Turbo
It has been a long time since we don’t see one of these mean Fiat 130, and now we’ve found a survivor of the last production year. These cars were built between the 1968 and the 1973, this car was generally appreciated for its lines but, both for the selling price and for the huge… Read More Executive class: 1973 Fiat 130 Berlina
Actually “few words” it’s an euphemism as the seller completely forgot to add a description of the car. But more than that, we suppose that the seller thought “car and photos speak by themselves” and we must say that he didn’t go so far from that. Indeed this is a 1600 c.c. car which is… Read More Few words, much car: 1973 Lancia Fulvia Coupé HF 1600 By Zagato
This car has not the easiest name of the world to be pronounced, but for sure is one of the streamiest lines ever made for a station wagon: Michelotti made a great work here.

Onassis was then driving a Porsche 911S, probably a 2.4l car. Apart from the driver’s qualities, it’s not so difficult to believe that this car… Read More The anti-Porsche: 1973 Ford Capri RS 2600 MKI
Update, September 19: We have checked the link to the ad but it’s not there anymore. We saw this ad yesterday and probably, seen the asking price, this car has gone quickly. The new owner made a great deal. 1973 was the second year of production of the AM V8, an evolution of the DBS, which… Read More Affordable luxury: 1973 Aston Martin V8 Coupé
This stylish station wagon was made in the last production year for this model after, more or less, 8,000 units built; actually this car is a design masterpiece even now: try to figure out how this car could look 40 years ago. Unfortunately for Volvo, this car was too expensive for its class and its… Read More Nordic design: 1973 Volvo P1800 ES
