DAUPHIN COLLECTION

Have we been here before? Virtually yes, but let's hit it one more time. Another CFX visit to a place full of hidden pleasures. It is the beginning of december and to top off an exciting year with a dose of inspiration we have decided to head north, direction Nuernberg. Somewhere in a little village we hit our target, dressed up your average industrial complex. Here one would expect a company specialized in milling machines, elevators perhaps or even tooling parts for the industry.

Behind these doors you will be blown back by a tsunami of heavenly metal. To cut it short, we are visiting the Dauphin Collection, a private party, an oasis of car history, packed, cramped, stuffed into a 21st century barn. The cars are lined up side to side. This is not not your usual museum tour or car show. A collection of cars, ranging from German, Italian to British. A feast for the eye and a hard one for the man behind the camera. One hundred cars in the first our and after that a walk through the second floor, filled up with more than 250 motorcycles. Details, details, details. A photo impression. Enjoy.

Anyway......back to cars (and motorcycles)!
A lotta Eyetalian 'shit': It makes my heart beat faster and the blood stream quicker and hotter, on this drizzly, cold and gray afternoon. Yep, Rik's winterdip has announced itself. Thanks for the relief, buddy!

M, nice collection of inspiring images characterised by mainly pure, clean shapes (the next (refreshing) fashion?). Red squares upper left: Alfa TZ? Sorry can't help it. Ciao, Umberto

Agree with all above comments of course, but don' you just love that sleepy-eyed Isetta too! So much character. Nice to see the Dauphins again, from a different angle. Could imagine combining this with a German roadtrip someday.
