VW Group´s awesome ´Autostadt´

Yesterday i went to Wolfsburg to see VW Groups Autostadt. I always wanted to go there since it´s just 45 minutes away.
It´s a large area with multiple buildings and attractions. Totally worth a visit.
I took some photos in the museum, that i want to share with you. Sadly my Camera, or better said, my smartphone ran out of juice as usual, so i had to rush it.
I´ll try to get there again soon and take time and my camera with me.

Bugatti T57 Atlantic (exact replica, because the originals are worth 30+ million $)

amazing looking car. The panels are riveted together, because they´re made of magnesium, which couldn´t be welded back then (not sure about today).

Gotta love this one. Turbocharged 5-cylinder madness. And who doesn´t remember the pikes peak version? ^^

Don´t really know why it was there, but i´m glad they have one since i´ve never seen one in person (because ultra-rare in Germany).

dat intake ! the engine itself looks pretty weird actually. i thought i took a photo, but sadly i didn´t. Also i think this might be a prototype.

Well, let´s get to my highlights:

VW W12 Nardo concept

Lamborghini Countach LP400

i wish they had put a late-year Countacgh next to it, just to show how extremely it evolved over the years.
Little fact on the side: Feruccio Lamborghini only owned 2 cars in his lifetime, well, probably more, but only 2 were registered on his name. A white Countach was one of them.

Lamborghini Miura

The car that started Lamborghini sportscars. Known for it´s looks and burning down easily.

16 cylinders,6 litres of displacement, unbelievable wood-and-rubber suspension and top speed over 200mph. To race this you need balls of steel, which are the size of the moon.

I hope you liked the pictures.
Feel free to comment.

Cheers

I’ve already visited this amazing place back in January… Heaven on Earth, that’s all i can say!

Amazing pictures! Still on my to-do list!

My god… I really wish I would’ve bugged my dad to go there when I lived there as a child D:
