About the 1966 Volkswagen 1300 Beetle Even in this age of sophistication, the popularity of the Volkswagen "Beetle" has not diminished. The original design dates back to the 1930's when Dr. Ferdinand Porsche provided the design framework for the "People's Car." Today, with more than 20 million units produced, the Volkswagen Beetle has become a symbol of mass-produced motorization, with no other vehicle exceeding this figure. Built upon the sturdy platform chassis is the amazingly reliable air cooled, flat-four cylinder engine. Suspension is four wheel independent for crisp handling and driving comfort. Although the onset of the Second World War greatly hindered Volkswagen's marketing opportunities, it made a superb comeback shortly following the conflict, under the skillful guidance of Heinrich Nordhoff. Throughout its production life, the Volkswagen was continuously improved to meet modern automobile standards. An enlarged powerplant displacement and better visibility are two of the notable changes that enabled the Beetle to set standards for the compact car market, decade after decade. The 1966 Volkswagen model is regarded as the classic Beetle, one that retains the most of the original design traits, and it has become a collector's item. Even today, more than half a century later, watching a nimble street bug is still a pleasant sight to behold, and its unmistakable shape will likely delight generations to come.
The 1:24 Allstars collection starts now with the most highly detailed and the most beautifully modified line created by Maisto.
About the Suzuki GSX1100S Katana: One of the most famous motorcycle shows in the world, is held every two years in Cologne West Germany, and the 1980 show is sure to stand out as one of the most unforgettable. One reason was that Honda released their CX500 turbo for the first time, and the second is that Suzuki's GSX1100S "Katana" (Japanese for sword) was unveiled. The Honda CX500 attracted attention for its advanced engine techniques and the Katana for its advanced and aggressive body styling, which broke from common traditional motorcycle styling. Although the Katana GSX1100S styling impressed the many thousands of viewers, almost everybody thought that it was just for show and the production model would be quite different. During the summer of 1981, Suzuki released the production Katana with almost exactly the same body styling seen at the Cologne show, with subtle improvements in the engine and running gear. The body styling is from the genius of Mr. Hans A. Muth of West Germany, who spent much time ensuring driver comfort in his design, and which proved out in many wind tunnel tests. The entire styling was derived from research on the best drivers position, and the rearward placed backsteps and unique tank styling were not done just for the pleasing jet age appearance. Large capacity fuel tank and small fairing were blended together for the best airflow around the rider and the bike. Although the bike is most noticeable for its styling, every part in it is quality. Engine is an air-cooled, parallel 4 of 1075cc, using 16 valves. With unique Suzuki TSCC (Twin Swirl Combustion Chamber) in the engine, it puts out 111 hp. This tremendous power transmits into a road speed of 230 k/ph and its unique body styling keeps it stable even at these high speeds. Suzuki is shipping a 1000cc Katana GSX1000S to the American market, and also a 750cc version to the European market as well. Requests form Japanese enthusiasts prompted Suzuki to also market a 750cc Katana GSX750S to their market.
The VW Transporter is back! When VW started mass production of the
legendary Volkswagen Type 2 - better known in Germany as the
'Bulli', the hippie van or the VW microbus - in 1950, they could
not have imagined that its success story would reach this far into
the future. The VW Transporter is a street icon and remains a dream
vehicle for many car fans even today. The camper van version, in
particular, is the epitome of freedom, adventure and the urge to
venture into the great unknown. The cardboard model The VW
Transporter kit brings the camper van version of the T2 into your
home and onto your desk in the form of a 38-piece cardboard model.
The most remarkable features of this lovingly designed model are

Transporter for your desk. The companion book The high-quality
companion guide contains a step-by-step construction manual for
your cardboard model. In addition to that, you'll get a wealth of

From 1969 through the early 1970's, at the Japanese Touring Car Race,
the Skyline GT-R achieved an unbelievable streak of fifty victories in
a row. Sixteen years later, its successful name was passed on to the
R32 type, which was developed as a base machine for Group-A races. To
take full advantage of its powerful 2.6l, 6-cylinder, twin turbo
engine, it was equipped with a 4-WD system, which provided unrivalled
race performance. 1995 saw the larger body and refined mechanics of the
R33.
In 1999, the technology cultivated over a long racing history was
unsparing poured into the new R34 type, developed with "ultimate
driving pleasure" in mind. The R34 features a smaller body and a
sturdier structure, with ample consideration given to its aerodynamics.
The adjustable two-level rear spoiler as well as a front and rear
diffuser (V-spec), regulate the flow of air under the chassis,
heightening control. The R34's impressive speed is accounted for by a
modification in valve timing and turbo-charging of the GETRAG 6-speed
transmission controlled engine.
Further refinements have been adopted such as an electronically
controlled front/rear power distribution 4WD system and a multi-link
suspension. Undergoing extensive testing in Japan, its driving
performance was further improved in Germany, on the Nurburgring.
Unrivalled speed and control have made the R34 version of the GT-R
Nissan's, if not Japan's, new index of quality.
Only Porsche, committed to sports car racing, could make a racing
version and production version of a sports car nearly identical. The
Porsche 911 GT2 was first developed in 1995 to compete in sports car
races and GT2 class circuits. The guts of this racing machine consist
of 6-speed, rear-wheel drive transmission, powered by a rear installed
3600cc air-cooled V6 engine with 450hp of output. The street legal
version had its output reduced to 430hp, still deemed more than enough
for public roads, and featured the added comfort of nice air
conditioning and the luxury of great audio. Intended as a means of
practical transportation on workdays and for weekend warrior circuit
racing on off-days, the compact Porsche 911 GT2 Road Version brought
unprecedented delight to sports car fans all over the globe.

The "Land Rover" was certainly one of the most famous symbols of "Made in England" on four wheels and is a real milestone in the history of the off road vehicles. Born after the war, with the first prototypes done in 1947, to meet both civilian and military tasks. Inspired, though not directly, to the American Jeep, was characterized by a 4x4-wheel drive and a strong and reliable frame to tackle, with success, the most difficult and demanding trails. The aluminium body made it lighter, but at the same time, more resistant to corrosion and long lasting. In 1971, when the Series III was introduced, it had already been produced and made more than a million units for both civilian and military uses. Also available in 88 inches "standard wheel base", or in 109 inches "long wheel base”.

Rommel was in the first general to use the Volkswagen during the military operation in France. He was so impressed by it that he, afterwards, when he was in charge of the Afrika Korps, reordered an ever increasing number of the vehicles. The K?belwagen distinguished itself immediatley by its enormous efficiency on all kinds of terrain, in spite of its small horse power (hardly 24 HP) and the driver on the rearwheels only
The Lamborghini Miura was produced by the Italian manufacturer between 1966 and 1973. The Miura, when it was presented on the market, was a real supercar characterized by high performance and innovative design.

Other significant changes where implemented on engine power and on the braking system. The commercial name of this unique car with a power of 440 Hp and outstanding performances was “Jota”. However, due to several requests from customers, Lamborghini modified some Miura SV series with specification similar to Jota. These cars were identified by the acronym SVJ and became soon the dream of car experts and funs all over the World.
