The Legendary W196

The Mercedes-Benz W196 was one of the most advanced and successful Formula One racing cars of the 1950s. Developed by Mercedes-Benz for the 1954 and 1955 Formula One seasons, it featured innovative technology such as mechanical direct fuel injection and desmodromic valve operation, giving it a significant performance advantage over its rivals. Driven by legendary racers such as Juan Manuel Fangio and Stirling Moss, the W196 won 9 of the 12 races it entered and secured consecutive World Drivers' Championships in 1954 and 1955. The car was produced in both streamlined and open-wheel versions, with the streamlined "Monza" bodywork designed for high-speed circuits. Its remarkable success established the W196 as one of the greatest Grand Prix cars in motorsport history and helped cement Mercedes-Benz's reputation for engineering excellence.

Innovation & Craftsmanship

Alpina's roots can be traced back to 1962, when Burkard Bovensiepen developed a Weber dual carburetor for the BMW 1500. This carburetor was well received by the automotive press, as well as BMW's own sales boss Paul G. Hahnemann. In 1964, BMW certified the quality of this Alpina product by awarding BMW vehicles fitted with the Alpina system the full factory guarantee.
In its first years, Alpina established its core competency by tuning carburetors and camshafts to extract more power from BMW engines, elements that eventually defined the company's logo, which came into being in 1967.
With a rich racing heritage, Alpina is renowned for their innovation, performance and craftsmanship. BMW ALPINA was (re)launched as an exclusive standalone brand under the BMW Group umbrella this year. Emphasizing performance, ride comfort, bespoke options and custom materials, they presented the vision at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este.

The Audi 80 GT

The Audi 80 GT went into production in 1973 as a groundbreaking, sporty compact sedan. It offered a 1.6-liter engine producing 100 horsepower, front-wheel drive, and an iconic 1970s style.
The 1981 Audi 80 GT, based on the aerodynamic B2 platform, is a classic European sedan and forerunner to the iconic Audi Coupé GT. Featuring Giorgio Giugiaro's signature sharp-angled design, the GT was beloved for offering spirited, five-cylinder performance without the price tag of the rally-focused Quattro.
