New additions to the automotive market are judged primarily by
efficiency or fuel consumption. Things are quite different for
historical cars. Major car shows, from Pebble Beach to Villa
d'Este, feature classic cars, which, although they may not achieve
top marks in the wind tunnel, have a timeless elegance that makes
the hearts of all afi cionados skip a beat. The photographer Ansel
Adams, who was an honorary judge at Pebble Beach, once de - fined
them as follows: "The type of vehicle I would like to be buried
in." From the Jaguar XK 140 to the Porsche 550 Spyder, Rene Staud
has shot automotive classics in set tings ranging from the subtle
to the spectacular. As co-organiser and head of the Car Selection
Com mittee for Schloss Bensberg Classics, Jurgen Lewandowski
provides authoritative texts. The Classic Cars Book conveys a real
passion for these spectacular vehicles, appealing to existing fans
and those yet to fall under their spell.
