  • Hello & welcome to a new episode.
    In this week's episode i head to a location that i had previously visited a couple years back, The reason for the revisit is purely out of curiosity, I wanted to see if in fact these poor classic Mercedes-Benz had been rescued or if they were living out their fate still in the dirt, Well what can i say, yes they are still there still collecting rust and still untouched and unloved, Its such a shame that us as human beings can be so wasteful, its just something we are so used to, over consumption CONSUMING everything in our paths, When all we need is to look after our things, then we wouldn't find classic cars left like this, I know not your car not your problem? Well if classic cars weren't dumped like this and most were still on the road then there wouldn't be an over inflation on every classic retro car, Than at least normal people would be able to afford to buy one,
    Just saying...

    @ralphbraun4849 Pƙed rokem

    The litte yellow car is a Trabant of course. They were the east German Volkswagens, mass produced, but with many years for waiting time before you got one. These cars were hopelessly outdated at the end of production. After the collapse of the G.D.R. people sometimes gave them away for almost nothing or just abandonded them. That was about 30 years ago, and by now they have become collectibles with a solid fan base.
    The two beautiful Borgward Isabellas you covered are legendary cars of West Germany. They have become classics decades ago.

    Good afternoon STOKZE, just to say that the heat is really horrible today and that I always enjoy your vids on you-tube, as I for 1 have always appreciated a really great classic cars and you my friend have certainly found some beauty’s on your travels, that in my opinion should be saved so that the younger generation can see PROPER cars and not all these cars of today that look so much alike and until next time TaRa for a bit.

    This video hurts me a lot. Especially with the Mercedes /8 Coupe. It is also a very rare 280CE (twin camshaft 185hp) from the first series, with smooth taillights, the large radiator bung and still the mirrors mounted on the door panels. My father bought the 1969 /8 250CE coupe brand new. He was white, with gray leather, automatic and electr. Sunroof. When he sold the car in 1980, I had tears in my eyes. The next was a new W123, 300D. I didn't like that! The yellow 350SL/450SL will be one of the first, probably still with the rare 3.5L V8 (later only with 3.8L) or a 4.5L V8. The hardtop for it cost a lot back then! The other small yellow car is a Trabant from the German Democratic Republic (DDR/GDR). But the two Borgward are very sought after in Germany. They were very luxurious back then. At that time BMW was broke and Borgward needed loans to continue building. The "Deutsche Bank" gave BMW the loans and Borgward had to close. Borgward cars (plus Lloyd and Hansa) were way above BMW!
    What you discovered there is sheer madness!
