<p>The Bamford Ferrari Specials provides a unique insight into the design of three bespoke Ferraris, their creation by specialists and craftsmen, and Lord Bamford’s own essential input to the process. </p>
<p>The end result is a unique motoring trio with unquestionable Italian heritage: two striking coupés that would look perfectly at home on the lawns at Pebble Beach or touring Riviera roads, and a muscular Spider that pays homage to the 1964 250 GTO that served as its inspiration. Lord Bamford is rightly proud of these three distinctive Ferraris, which now form part of his much-admired collection.</p>
<p>With contributions from key people, including Lord Bamford himself, this book chronicles the design, engineering and construction of these magnificent cars, inspired by classic Ferraris and built for modern roads. The book was published by <a href="https://porterpress.co.uk/">Porter Press International</a> and is also available for order on <a href="https://amzn.to/48Lcd58">Amazon</a>.</p>

<p>Irmscher – diesen Namen verbinden Autofans auf ewig mit Opel. Denn keine andere Firma betreibt schon so lange durchgehend und erfolgreich das Tuning von allem, was einen Blitz im Logo trägt. Zu Beginn der 1960er Jahre hat Günther Irmscher mit dem „Frisieren“ – wie man es damals noch nannte – begonnen. Zunächst ging es noch um Fahrzeuge von NSU. 1968 dann die Firmengründung und schon bald das verdeckte Engagement von Opel bei Rallyes und Rennen mit Günther Irmscher als Motorsport-Mastermind der deutschen GM-Tochter. Eine spannende Zeit! Helden wie Walter Röhrl siegten auch dank der Innovationen von Irmscher auf Opel. Heute ist Irmscher ein global operierender Partner in der Automobilwelt, entwickelt Sondermodelle für viele Hersteller und ist selbst als Produzent von Sportwagen und sogar Elektrofahrzeugen in Erscheinung getreten. Dieses Buch, in enger Zusammenarbeit mit Günther Irmscher jun. entstanden, fasst erstmals die komplette Geschichte von den Wurzeln des Firmengründers bis heute zusammen – und das in vielen bislang nie gezeigten Fotos. Das Buch ist im <a href="https://www.heel-verlag.de/">Heel-Verlag</a> erscheien &#8211; auch über <a href="https://amzn.to/44KJydj">Amazon </a>zubestellen.</p>

<p>In diesem opulent gestalteten Bildband dreht sich alles um Traumautos: In 21 Road Trips, die jeweils für ein Kapitel stehen, setzt die britische Fotografin Amy Shore besondere Automodelle ins beste Licht – und beweist dabei einen etwas anderen Blick auf die Autowelt. Im Fokus ihrer großartigen Bilder stehen weniger leistungsstarke Details und modernste Technologie. Amy Shore macht vielmehr PS-Stärken „erfahrbar“: Ihre Aufnahmen spiegeln die Wirkung der außergewöhnlichen Autos auf die Menschen wider; sie zeigen das Fahrgefühl in wunderschönen Landschaften sowie die Freude, in Bewegung zu sein und Neues zu entdecken. Die stimmungsvollen Fotografien laden dazu ein, einzigartige Natur, faszinierende Orte und spannende Menschen kennenzulernen – sie wecken Fernweh und machen Lust auf eigene Abenteuer und Road Trips. Porträtiert werden unter anderem prominente Autoliebhaber wie Guy Berryman der Band Coldplay oder Formel-1-Fahrer Charles Leclerc. Das Buch ist bei <a href="https://koehler-mittler-shop.de/">Koehler in Maximilian Verlag</a> erschienen &#8211; auch über <a href="https://amzn.to/3D6tWad">Amazon</a> zu bestellen.</p>

<p>Der JaguarSport XJR-15 ist ein seltenes und außergewöhnliches Fahrzeug, das oft im Schatten seines berühmteren Nachfolgers, des XJ220, steht. Entstanden aus Jaguars reichem Erbe im Motorsport, war der XJR-15 das Ergebnis einer Zusammenarbeit zwischen Jaguar und Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR). Eingeführt im Jahr 1990, war der XJR-15 das erste Straßenauto, das vollständig aus Kohlefaser gefertigt wurde, einem Material, das zu dieser Zeit hauptsächlich in der Formel 1 verwendet wurde, was seine Rennsportabstammung unterstreicht.</p>
<p>Der XJR-15 basierte auf dem Jaguar XJR-9, der 1988 die 24 Stunden von Le Mans gewonnen hatte. Dieses Auto wurde von Peter Stevens entworfen, der auch am ikonischen McLaren F1 arbeitete. Der XJR-15 war mit einem 6,0-Liter-V12-Motor ausgestattet, der 450 PS leistete und das Auto in weniger als 4 Sekunden von 0 auf 100 km/h beschleunigen konnte, mit einer Höchstgeschwindigkeit von 307 km/h. Es wurden nur 53 Exemplare gebaut, was ihn heute zu einem äußerst seltenen Sammlerstück macht.<span id="more-5500"></span></p>
<p>Jaguars Erbe im Motorsport<br />
Jaguars Engagement im Motorsport geht auf die 1950er Jahre zurück, eine goldene Ära für die Marke. Der Jaguar XK120, der 1948 vorgestellt wurde, ebnete den Weg für Jaguars Rennsport-Erfolge. 1951 und 1953 gewann Jaguar die 24 Stunden von Le Mans mit dem C-Type, einem Auto, das Scheibenbremsen im Motorsport einführte, eine revolutionäre Neuerung zu dieser Zeit.</p>
<p>Der D-Type folgte dem C-Type und wurde zu einem der ikonischsten Rennwagen der 1950er Jahre. Er gewann Le Mans dreimal in Folge von 1955 bis 1957. Das aerodynamische Design und die fortschrittliche Technik des D-Type machten ihn zu einer dominierenden Kraft auf der Rennstrecke.</p>
<p>Nach einer Pause vom werksunterstützten Rennsport kehrte Jaguar in den 1980er Jahren mit voller Kraft zurück. Die Partnerschaft mit Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR) erwies sich als fruchtbar und gipfelte in der Entwicklung der XJR-Serie von Langstrecken-Rennwagen. Besonders herausragend war der XJR-9, der 1988 den Sieg bei den 24 Stunden von Le Mans errang und damit die langjährige Dominanz von Porsche bei diesem Event beendete.</p>
<p>Jaguar: Ein legendärer Autohersteller<br />
Jaguars Ruf als legendärer Autohersteller basiert auf einer Grundlage von Innovation, Luxus und Leistung. Gegründet 1922 als Swallow Sidecar Company, stellte das Unternehmen zunächst Motorradbeiwagen her, bevor es auf Automobile umstieg. Die Marke wurde 1945 in Jaguar umbenannt und brachte kurz darauf den XK120 heraus, der damals das schnellste Serienauto der Welt war.</p>
<p>In den 1960er Jahren brachte Jaguar den E-Type auf den Markt, der oft als eines der schönsten Autos aller Zeiten gilt. Enzo Ferrari nannte ihn „das schönste Auto, das je gebaut wurde“, und er wurde sofort zu einer Ikone, die die Swinging Sixties und den Höhepunkt des britischen Automobildesigns symbolisierte.</p>
<p>Im Laufe der Jahre hat Jaguar kontinuierlich Innovationen hervorgebracht und Luxuslimousinen, Sportwagen und SUVs produziert, die Eleganz mit Leistung vereinen. Modelle wie der 1968 eingeführte XJ sind zum Synonym für Luxus und Raffinesse geworden und werden von Prominenten, Politikern und der königlichen Familie gleichermaßen geschätzt.</p>
<p>In den letzten Jahren hat Jaguar mit der Einführung von Elektrofahrzeugen wie dem I-PACE, einem vollelektrischen SUV, der zahlreiche Auszeichnungen für sein Design und seine Leistung erhalten hat, die Zukunft der Automobilindustrie aufgegriffen. Dieser Schritt in Richtung Nachhaltigkeit spiegelt Jaguars Engagement für Innovation und die Fähigkeit, sich an veränderte Marktanforderungen anzupassen, wider.</p>
<p>Der JaguarSport XJR-15 ist ein Zeugnis für Jaguars Ingenieurskunst und seine tiefen Wurzeln im Motorsport. Dieses seltene Supercar, mit seinen fortschrittlichen Materialien und seiner Rennsportabstammung, verkörpert den Geist eines Unternehmens, das stets die Grenzen des Automobildesigns und der Leistung verschoben hat.</p>
<p>Jaguars glorreiche Geschichte im Rennsport, geprägt von bedeutenden Siegen und technologischen Fortschritten, ergänzt sein Erbe als Hersteller einiger der schönsten und begehrenswertesten Autos der Welt. Von den frühen Tagen des XK120 und den Le-Mans-Siegen des C-Type und D-Type bis hin zur modernen Ära von Luxus- und Elektrofahrzeugen bleibt Jaguar ein Symbol für Innovation, Leistung und Eleganz in der Automobilwelt.</p>

<p>The Lotus Elite was a turning point for Lotus. First produced at the end of the 1950s, it marked Lotus&#8217; transition from a maker of small racing cars, which had limited utility on the road, to the producer of a highly sophisticated road and race car. In the Elite, Lotus exploited its knowledge of new technology and racing pedigree to produce a car which, with its glass fibre monocoque and Coventry Climax engine, had the potential to be a world beater.</p>
<p> This book gives an insight into the reasons the car was produced and its importance in Lotus&#8217; history, especially in the production of lightweight innovative cars. Through interviews with Elite owners, first hand accounts provide a good overview of owning one of these iconic cars, covering its foibles and quirks as well as its exemplary roadholding, handling and performance. Illustrated with many colour photographs, along with period advertising material, the book provides a valuable insight into owning, running and <a href="http://livinghomelifestyle.de/buchtipp-shadow-the-magnificent-machines-of-a-man-of-mystery-can-am-formula-1-f5000/" title="BuchTipp – Shadow: The Magnificent Machines of a Man of Mystery: Can-Am – Formula 1 – F5000">racing</a> these iconic cars.

<p>From development prototype to Geneva Motor Show star and 150mph road-test car, 9600 HP played a key role in the launch of the sensational Jaguar E-type. This latest book tells the story of this unique car’s life, its intricate restoration, and the unsung hero behind its creation – Malcolm Sayer.</p>
<p>First published in 2000 and extensively expanded and updated for this new edition, it includes interviews with many of the characters who were central to the car’s adventures. It also features a wealth of exclusive archive material from the family of Malcolm Sayer – the man who created some of Jaguar’s most iconic designs.<br />

<p>9600 HP is the only remaining prototype and is the oldest surviving Jaguar E-type. In 1961, it served as a press car and was driven flat-out across France to be in Geneva in time for the E-type’s official launch. Subsequently owned by the likes of racing driver Jack Fairman, 9600 HP was acquired by Philip Porter in 1977 and kept in a barn until 1999, when a deal was done that would lead to its emotional return to the road…</p>
<p>How ‘prototype number 7’ played a central role in the development of the <a href="http://livinghomelifestyle.de/buchtipp-jaguar-e-type-a-celebration-of-the-worlds-favourite-60s-icon-great-cars/" title="BuchTipp – Jaguar E-Type: A Celebration of the World’s Favourite ’60s Icon (Great Cars)" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Jaguar</a> E-type and the model’s 1961 Geneva launch.<br />
The full story of 9600 HP’s famous 150mph road-test by Autocar magazine.<br />
Fascinating insight into 9600 HP’s post-Jaguar life, including its ownership by film director John Paddy Carstairs and racing driver Jack Fairman.<br />
Detailed account of the car’s painstaking restoration, its triumphant return to Geneva in 2000, and its busy life since.<br />
Extensive celebration of Malcolm Sayer and his enduring legacy, using never previously published drawings, sketches and photographs from the Sayer family.<br />

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://livinghomelifestyle.de/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/PHOTO-2021-03-04-09-07-31-e1616067916945.jpg"><img src="http://livinghomelifestyle.de/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/PHOTO-2021-03-04-09-07-31-e1616067916945.jpg" alt="PHOTO-2021-03-04-09-07-31" width="600" height="450" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4628" /></a>Illustration Gudy Steinmill-Hommel</p>
<p>Between 1997 and 2014, Tom Kristensen won the world&#038;;s toughest motor race, the Le Mans 24 Hours, a record nine times and finished on the podium on five more occasions. Every time his car made it to the finish, in fact, he was in the top three. It is no wonder that this great sports car driver is known as &#038;;Mr Le Mans&#038;; to motorsport fans around the world.<br />
<span id="more-4627"></span></p>
<p>Now retired from racing, Kristensen shares in this book his deepest personal reflections and insights from inside and outside the cockpit. He looks back on more than 30 years spent striving for perfection in racing and tells of the battles and setbacks that sometimes seemed impossible to overcome, including a terrible accident in 2007.<br />
Climbing the racing ladder, from karting into Formula 3 single-seaters, including championship titles in Germany (1991) and Japan (1993), then Formula 3000 and a Formula 1 testing role with Tyrrell.<br />
Winning as an underdog on his first visit to Le Mans, in 1997 driving an elderly Joest-run privateer Porsche in which he impressed all onlookers with a night-time charge to vanquish Porsche&#038;;s factory-entered favourite.<br />
His second Le Mans victory came in 2000 on his maiden drive for Audi in the R8, a car that was to become all-conquering.<br />
Kristensen won the next five editions of Le Mans, four times with Audi and once with Bentley (in 2003), his last victory in this sequence taking him past Jacky Ickx&#038;;s previous record at the Circuit de la Sarthe.<br />
His eighth win came in one of the all-time classic contests at Le Mans, in 2008, a rollercoaster of a race in which his ageing diesel-powered Audi was never expected to beat the fancied works Peugeots.<br />
One more victory with Audi in 2013 sealed his reputation as a true legend of Le Mans.<br />
His story includes exploits at other racetracks all over the world, none more prolific than Sebring, home of America&#038;;s long-established classic endurance race that Kristensen won six times.<br />
Personal reflections together with contributions from notable observers &#038;; including English journalists Gary Watkins and Charles Bradley &#038;; complete a truly rounded portrait of the man and his achievements.&#160;</p>

<p>Enigmatic American Don Nichols, D-Day paratrooper, Army counter-intelligence officer and controversial entrepreneur, went on to create a racing marque that seems as cloaked as the man himself. Shadow was the only US-based team to win a Can-Am championship, and one of only three to score a victory in Formula 1. Yet history lavishly celebrates his nominal rivals Dan Gurney and Roger Penske, while Nichols has long remained, yes, a shadowy figure &#038;; despite staying the difficult international course far longer, for 11 racing seasons, 1970 to 1980. But at last Pete Lyons, who was there in the day, lifts the veil from this secretive man and the innovative, extraordinary, magnificent racing cars and world-class team he created.

<p>Since the early 2000s, the apparent explosion of interest in Volkswagens with original paint, rust and patina has inspired a generation of car fanatics, who might not be able to afford to restore a car to show condition, but still want a good looking, cool car that will stand out from the crowd. Once looked upon as vehicles that were in need of restoration, cars with original paint, rust and patina, especially within the global Volkswagen community, have gradually become far more popular than restored cars. When walking down a line of cars at a car show, it’s easy to see why; these cars are rare, unspoiled survivors – cars that tell a story of an interesting and varied past.<span id="more-3559"></span></p>
<p>The look of the Volkswagens being built in this style is so honest, unspoiled and characterful, that it has begun to inspire the media; even Hollywood movie stars and celebrities. Whilst this has undoubtedly resulted in increased car values, and turned a brand of cars that had always been a cheap, honest mode of transportation into something cool with a high price tag, </p>
<p>The generation it initially inspired has grown with the hobby, and produced a micro-industry that still manages to embrace the &#8216;Built not bought&#8217; ethos. Patina Volkswagens, superbly illustrated with stunning colour photographs, takes an inside look at some of the key car builders, dealers, celebrities and hobbyists, as well as the different styles of build, meaning every single car has a style all of its own.
