We're at Essen Motor Show!

Killepitch, Glüwein, Altbier, Kölsch and Mölsch. All good stuff. But there are other things as well in Ruhr, Germany. We're talking about cars. Fast cars, Cool cars, Immaculate Cars, Priceless cars and fun stuff too.
 
Since we were familiar with all of the above and in need of some inspiration before the Christmas halabaloo begins, we took some time off and drove down to Mülheim and der Ruhr, in Germany. 10 hours after leaving Gothenburg, Sweden we could enjoy a German beer where German beers are best enjoyed.
We started to relax at Classic Remise in Düsseldorf. A welcoming place with character where amazing cars can be enjoyed while sipping the beverage of your likings. Some cars you can buy too...if you wallet is not too thin.. Love this Panamericana racer with Swedish background.
Are you in to cars from the Art Deco period? Does louvers get you exited? Enjoy this mind blowing  Horsch with a hood that goes on forever, while sipping an Espresso. 
Here's what it's all about. An old Locomotive workshop transformed to an peaceful place to worship cars and bikes and acknowledge motor history.
 
Essen motor Show. We've now moved from Mild to Wild. Young and old entusiast with a lot of hot rod spirit. From old Demolition racers...
...to a young German take on lowriders. Mercedes W123 can be cool too. 
And as usual, there's a before and after. Especially for some VW products in German. Seem like old VW don't die, they just go faster.
 
There's something special with Tractor pulling. It's a nice sport that make all other motorsport reasonable. Add another turbocharged Allison V12 to you contraption and be prepared for an epic engine failure while smiling. 
Last, but not least.
How about this modern Art Deco Delahaye, based on a Mercedes R107 (Mercedes SL).
If you lack decoration in your workshop/ garage there are solutions. We are not so keen on stuffed Zebras, but a polished turbine wheel of reasonable size could be suitable for our business.
