Cars and Girls // Frankfurt Motor Show

While slogging away at the far-too-big Frankfurt Motor Show last month (28km of exhibition hall walking in two days), I snapped away with my camera to capture a bit of the event’s atmosphere. That is to say, I took pictures of girls and cars. And now I post them here for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!

Here’s the latest of a zillion Lamborghini Gallardos, the LP570-4 Super Trofeo Stradale. Sure, it’s another random edition, but it still looks the nuts.

Do rear ends get much more hardcore than this?

Sticking with Lambo, here’s the new Aventador. And friend.

Carlsson’s interpretation of the Mercedes-Benz M-Class. Grrr!

Orange tyres? Colour us interested, Hankook.

German touring cars are great, aren’t they?

Here’s what the next Land Rover Defender could look like. OK, so maybe it’ll have a roof, unlike this DC100 Sport concept. But squint a bit, and you’ll get the idea.

If the Smurfs drove sports cars, they’d drive this TechArt Porsche GT Street RS.

 

This dress appears to be made from a mixture of foil and snakeskin.

Aston Martin’s new V12 Zagato. Yeah, it’s pretty sweet.

This carbon and matt white SLS is actually pretty restrained for Hamann. Is it wrong to rather like it?

Beautiful curves on this Maserati Granturismo. I wonder if that’s a particularly well-dressed bouncer in the background?

Motor shows are always good for reminding you of niche cars that aren’t seen very often. Here’s an Artega GT.

Jaguar XJ muscles in on a perfectly good shot of some ladies. How rude.

A very shiny Alfa Romeo 4C. I’m still not sure whether I like this or not… Thoughts?

Motor shows are also good for showing you new vehicles from manufacturers you’ve never heard of. Here’s the Tecdrah from Travec. Imagine this on orange Hankooks!

Massive Hilux is Massive.

Here’s another foil/snakeskin number. Actually, it reminds me of the wrapper from a selection box chocolate that nobody wants.

I think there might be a fight going on in the background of this shot…

Lotus’ new Evora GTE. YES PLEASE.

The rear-wheel drive Kia GT concept. Yes, that’s right, it’s a Kia. Crikey.

Make this please Kia. Thanks.

Call that a stand, Mercedes? Just the three storeys? Pah. Must try harder.

It’s annoying that the only sharp picture I took of this ludicrously yellow electric SLS was the one with a badly-coiffed man in it. Oh well.
