Seen on the streets: Reliant Rialto SE

It has been a long time since i posted my last street view car. But i only wanted to share cars i realy saw on the streets and wich made me smile or are simply great machines or have an amazing styling. You can decide in wich category the Reliant Rialto goes. First a great picture:

My example was  chocolate ore vanilla brown and was parked for sale at a crossing in Berlin. Yes, you can get this car, wich may be known from the TV- series "Mr. Bean" for about 7800 €. Some facts concerning this model: The Reliant Rialto succeeded the "Robin" in January 1982. And right away, yes it has 3 wheels! The wedge shaped fibreglass body was  mounted onto a galvanised chassis. Power is delivered by Reliant's 850 cc aluminium water cooled engine and with the added aerodynamics of the vehicle’s shape, the Rialto was a much more stable vehicle at speed than the Robin without the need to fight the steering wheel. The Rialto came in three body types, the saloon, estate and van and now featured only one windscreen wiper that was centrally located to clear the whole windscreen.

Tonight - Top Gear Bond Special on Motorvision

That was quick! Only at 29th October the Top Gear Bond special was broadcasted on BBC 2 and tonight it is shown on my favorite car chanel, Motorvision with german subtitles. How marvelous that they take only such a short time to translate and bring it on our screens so i don´t have to watch it on the internet. Yet there is the Lotus Esprit, oh how i loved this one and this special Bond Movie. I always loved the ones with Roger Moore, they had more humor in them and definitely the most gadges. 
If you missed this one you can watch it tomorrow at 13:15 or at 07.11. 2012 at 05:15 (the early bird....)

Streetview: Porsche 944

And anonther post to my category "special cars". Yesterday i was driving home after my weekly shopping for groceries when i waited behind an Porsche 944 from the first model range at a red light. I was surprised to see this car in front of me because it was never so popular and has now a few years on his back. It was a white model from i think 1983-1985 and as far as i could see no turbo or S version. What i like particular on this one is the different shape and the true 80´s feeling of the design. The rear lights are arranged in cubic formes that look like tiles. And after a few minutes of research i found out that an early model in good shape- like the one i encountered yesterday- is still available for 8000 €.

Top Gear returns 2013

Today i can confirm that even i had heard that there will no new season Top Gear till december. So sad! I can´t wait for season 19 but the presenters are right in waiting until they actually have a high quallity show and not just dropping season after season with nothing new and stunning in it. so i am fine with it. There will be a christmas special and the new season will be starting january 2013. Hey, only 6 month to go, thats nothing! I found out at this interview, here it is:

Street-view-car of the week

It´s been a while since i´ve seen a real exiting or rare car on the streets but today was my lucky day again. This morning i stumbled about a breathtaking Audi R8 GT. Yes, this car was just parking and shining in the sun. The very special designed back caught my eye at the first time. On each side there are these huge holes for cooling i suppose. And they are needed because this machine develops 560 Hp with its V10 engine.
When i peeked into the car a saw business as usual audi-style. Which means rich materials like carbon, leather and magnesium and a whiff of first class. Here a few pictures to make your mouth watering. This interior picture below is from the Audi R8 GT 5.2 FSI quattro R-tronic model. It cost astonishing 139.000 € AND i think that all cars of this range are already sold.

streetview today - Skoda!

Aha. This weeks surprise of the streets is a Skoda. So far nothing to shout about but this little PICK-UP is not seen so often in my city. in fact, i can count in my right hand how many times i have seen a pick-up in town. Todays model was the Skoda Pick-up with the very meaningfull name "fun". How do they shoose their car names? At least the car looks realy practical and is a head turner, even it´s not up to date. This year VW, owner of Skoda, is launching a new VW Caddy Pick-up, the Amarok and i want to see this one also on my daily walk. Just because in town people do not need a big chunky pick-up and in general we don´t have such a car-culture like america - for me the homeland of the pick-up. Beneath is a little picture of my daily car. And i love to report that the one i saw today was in excelent condition as far as i can see and in the same bright warm colour as on the pic below. 

And now soem off topic. I checked in VW and was surprised how many marques they own by now. I knew about Audi and Skoda but they own also Lamborghini, Bentley, Seat, Scania and Bugatti. I do learn something new every day.
