Cars Of The Past…

The C111 Benz was a test platform for MB (and VW) engines, most remember it as a rotary, but MB put everything from diesels to v8s

The wiki article does not do it justice, 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes-Benz_C111

People often call it a prototype that never met the market, and the fact they has a radio cassette does hint to its potential for the market.

The Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart are onto me so I wont be stealing one and driving it to Switzerland any time soon. I do think I could cause enough of a distraction for you to steal the Blitzen Benz tho.

'68 Mustang Fastback?

If I had to choose from the list, I'd choose the Aston Martin car in Goldfinger, just for the luxury and cool gadgets and toys to play with while on a smooth and quiet country trek. We previously owned a 1980 Camaro and a 1976 Mustang and other types of cars (1970s Maverick), so if I was young again, my choice might sway to a muscle car, again.

"The bespoke vehicle echoes the original DB5’s Silver Birch paintwork, and its other classic-inspired touches include a Prince of Wales Check perforation pattern in the leather seats, 18-karat gold plated interior accents, gold woven into carbon fiber, and an “eight of hearts” card depicted into the sun visor.The car, of which only 60 will be made worldwide, will come with a suite of special commemorative gifts for owners. These include a luxurious presentation box for the key, a speedform, a section of the Goldfinger film in 35mm film, a limited edition magazine, a bespoke attaché case, and a magnum of 2007 vintage Champagne Bollinger with matching glasses, also presented in a special case"

Back to reality!

All cars are money pits so my next car will be an EV and from the looks of it, Toyota will be my choice when their BZ6 becomes available. Until then I'll keep fixing 'the wreck' (reliable wreck) which is all paid up.

'68 Mustang Fastback?

Yes, 68 Mustang GT Fastback. It was the car Steve McQueen drove in the most famous car chase in cinema history (so they say).  Don’t think I’d pay 3.75 million for it though.

I was tryng to find an article for you about a Soviet era leader having whale penis leather seats in his limos, but first link was Jalopnic so this is what you get

https://www.jalopnik.com/1-5m-russian-su...e-5380680/

Yes, thats right Putin has sat on whale penis [leather seats] and enjoyed it.



EDIT TO ADD: Putin also collects cars and years back a Benz 770 (with third reich providence) sold to an anonymous Russian, many thought it was Puto, I mean Putin. It turned out not to be him.
